I think it's Warlord that do the plastic animals?

Yes, they are available from them. I got two sprues the other day, and they are quite nice.

Thanks, I will have to look up those packs, especially the Warlord one.

Drat & double drat!
Not an elephant, giraffe or hippo to be seen. Great for cows, sheep etc. but not anything for Africa.
Does anyone else spot a gap in the market place?

So, Mr. Aly Morrison could keep the secret with his plan for the Partizan. The Perry’s and Aly Morrison will do a 40mm Plastic set for the Great War. British, also usable as Portuguese. They will show them at the Salute and release the short after Partizan. Than in February the Germans in 40mm....

Ok, after the Sexpistols great Rock‘n‘roll-swindle this could be the great Salute-Swindle.....

HYW mounted knights and American WW2 according to Facebook

Captain Blood · « **Reply #80 on:** April 14, 2018, 11:23:14 AM »

Yep. Just seen them and had a quick chat with Michael and Alan. HYW mounted knights next. US WW2 Mediterranean theatre next after that. The knights will have the existing medieval plastic horses but with some new heads, and the riders may well be in two halves to allow further intermixing of parts. Yay

For me I have little in the way of speculation.
So I'll just say what I'd like to see.

Plastic AWI continental militia.
Plastic NAP Dutch and Belgian line and plastic dutch Militia
Plastic NAP Marching British line (heads to do Scottish in trousers and Hanoverians)
Plastic NAP Marching Highland Line (kilts)

A range of 1812 Americans

Richard - Will there be cloth Caparisons to cover the horses?

Captain Blood · « **Reply #83 on:** April 14, 2018, 03:45:26 PM »

Sorry Mick, didn't ask that. Alan said that whilst the horse frame will be the same as the WOTR one (already used in the MMAA and Light Cav sets) there will be extra horse heads with different chamfrons on the frame.
Whether that will also include cloth caparisons, in the same way they included armoured barding on the WOTR MMAA frame, I'm not sure. The Horses shown as greens at Salute today didn't have any.

Some photos of the new Perry plastics

ARKOUDAKI · « **Reply #85 on:** April 14, 2018, 06:20:21 PM »

And some more photos....

FYI, Alan says these Knights will be the next plastics into production (no date yet).

Here are the WW2 Americans done by Michael....still a long way to go on these but should be a really useful set...I wanted Italians but....well...one day....

Please give me a link to the photo from Salute 2018. I live very, very far from London.

Hmmm. More US infantry in Parsons jackets.

I was hoping that they would do them in HBT fatigues, so they could do double duty for Torch and the SW Pacific. No such luck. Oh well, they woulf have been too small to go wit my Eureka Australians anyway so money saved.

Michael said that it's possible that Alan may include a caparsioned horse - although they weren't really common in this period, I am sure it would be a popular addition to the box.
Also horse heads with chamfrons- like the so called Warwick one (in Royal Armouries I think?)
Can now start planning FRnech army for Patay.
