Great photos. I see those gray tents and sandbag emplacements. Do you know if those are pre-production prototypes that will be painted in the general release?

Craig,

Do you have anymore info on these? Obviously they are tents, but the card says new range (Tents of the World perhaps LOL)


I dont really know much about them to be honest, there wasn't anyone from britains near the table to ask when I was taking that photo, I believe they are part of the upcoming releases for the Zulu range though as they were positioned with the rest of the Zulu stuff.

Thank you for posting the pictures of the Collectors Club Event.

Hopefully, Britains will have one in Chicago next year.

I look forward to the new additions to the Zulu Range.

Since it has not been mentioned, I quess that a special event figure was not given out at the event. Was anything given away at the event?

They have only done 1 event at chicago i think? back in 2006? maybe its time they did another,

as for the special figure it was a redcoat again to go with the last 2 years figures, It was a drum major 2nd coldstream guards 1815.

Glad you liked them Dave, Its a shame that britains dont do more events around the world as the london 1 really seems to of taken off getting bigger & better with more people attending each year, im not sure how the event they had in the US earlier this year went but i imagine it will get better with each passing year aswell, hopefully canada might get 1 eventually.

Thanks for the info Craig, I guess time will tell when next years catalogues come out.

Scott the broken down painted tent would represnts one of many that were taken down prior to the attack by the Zulus of the Mission Stations. with the addtion of the last redoubt your defensive structers are now complete. Seeing we got a sneak peak of the Four new Zulu warriors any chance of getting larger photos of them from the Land of the WBritain prior to seeing them in the 2010 Catalog?

Thanks, I thought there was one, hopefully I will be able to make it there next year. Maybe one day we can Britains or K&C to pay a visit :D
 
Did anybody get the info when the first releases of the "War Along The Nile" series will be on the market, with the dealers?
Konrad
 
Thanks Craig, Maybe Ken or Richard will let us know when they next see this thread. Such an odd colour - and no explanation, I think they must be pre-production, and will be painted to look like the collapsed then. Useful for many different eras and series.
 
Hi All!
I am just back from the UK where we all had a great time. The Saturday night event was interesting, well attended and my only complaint is that it seemed to go by too fast.

Several new items were on display including unpainted patterns of AZW tents, photos of new sculpts for the Sudan and the AZW, resin paint masters and pre production paint samples from the factory. I think they all have been covered here and elsewhere.
As a further explanation the ACW Ambulance and team is fixed to a scenic base so we could use realistic reins and attach them to the drivers hands. Any other approach would necessitate some type of over scale treatment. I think you will like it when you see it.

I believe the next full fledged evening W. Britain event will be in the fall next year at Williamsburg, VA... but that isn't in stone yet.

The first offerings for the Matte 'War on the Nile' will be in the Jan/Feb 2010 catalog with additional releases in the supplements later in the year.

I hope this answers some of your questions... it is back to the bench to put in a little more time on some new ACW sculpts!
All the Best,
Ken Osen
 
Ken,
Can you answer one little question.In the WON series will there be British Generals and the Mahdi.
Mark
 
Ken

When will dealers have the War Along the Nile sets in stock?

Thanks,

Randy
 
Hi Mark...
Later in the series we will probably do some personalities, but at the moment we hope to offer a variety of good poses to create some defensive squares and hand to hand vignettes.

Randy...
I think you will see some of these at your retailers by late spring. The paint samples shown at the W. Britain event will be headed to the factory soon.

That's what I like to hear Ken, new ACW sculpts. The ambulance looks fantastic and will be a must have for me. Could the new ACW sculpts include casualties to go with it?
Mike
 
Like the ACW ambulance... the new Sudan range looks fantastic! Keep the Rorkes Drift range coming... need a couple of "clump of zulus"...
