Over the last couple of years I've really enjoyed so many WW1 items including figures, tanks, guns, aircraft etc from all the popular companies, we really are spoilt for choice. I wonder if I may request some figures for consideration which I believe would inhance any WW1 diorama.
1. On the Somme many of the inexperienced Pals battalions advanced as ordered holding their rifles out in front of the body in a sort of slanted present arms. One or two of these figures would really flesh out multiples and add realism to an advance.
2. Dead and wounded sets. Sorry, I know it's grim , but it's realism we want and this adds it in spades. We don't want just one figure, we need sets of dead and wounded as made in other conflicts by Britain's and K&C ( who have made WW1 Germany dead set). British sets of these for the Somme would be a God
send.
3. Trench fighting. Trench raids were violent, bloody and personal .Armed with lethal often home made weapons . Would love to see some hand to hand , fight to the death sets for trench raids.
4. Climbing out of trench sets. Britain's made these which are so good , more please.
5. Sets for shell holes. Waiting/ wounded / grenade throwing ...anything for a shell hole.
Thanks for reading!
