WW1 Centenary (1 Viewer)

[NicktheBaggie]

With the centenary of the end of the 1st World War, I'm hoping for more FW figures to get a release. Its a wonderful range, especially the "after the battle" sets. I'd love to see:

Gas attack victims.



Life in the trenches, soldiers sleeping, recieving their rum rations, writing letters home.

Also kilted regiments.

K & C haven’t issued too many WW I figures lately so perhaps we are due. Of course, there is always JJD.

Seeing the picture of the gassed soldiers reminded me that Tommy's War had made a set of 54mm figures, plastic kit, of this:

Yes indeed, K&C are very, very over due for some new Great War figures, hoping some are due soon. Behind the lines figures, Doctors and Engineers.

I would like to see Americans added to this line.

It's odd that they have never made any.

If an American line was offered I'd to see an American BAR soldier. 2nd Lt. Val Browning, John Brownings son, carried one in combat. Though the BAR was introduced late in the war it was a huge impact disproportionate to it's numbers. It also distinguished itself in the Meuse-Argonne offensive. Besides General "Black Jack" Pershing and Sergeant York there was General Douglas McArthur who rose from major to brigadier general and was nominated for the Medal of Honor but instead received the Distinguished Service Cross, Also Harry S. Truman was a combat artillery officer and General George S. Patton learned his tank skills in the war. I feel the American aspect would be interesting. On a different note I would like to see Winston Chruchill in his combat officer's uniform. He is one of my favorite people in history
