off the top of my head;

 us with B.A.R's
 us with browning HMG
us with shotguns (just because that in the trench fighters pack is bloody poor)

Force Publique command and machine guns
This along with some Regular US Army riflemen, command and NCOs.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Slightly larger figures to better match Copplestone!  ;D

As long as we are getting close to Xmas (and Santa's list), also how about a blister of WW 1 Austro-Hungarian cavalry (there were many thousands of them serving on the Russian Front).  Great War makes cavalry in German stahlhelm and British brodie helmets (as well as early war); Copplestone makes Russians (the White Russian Cossacks are fine for WW 1).  How about showing some love to the Austro-Hungarians ?

And as a fantasy, how about a blister with the rarer Battlefield One weapons (held by nationals of the respective armies) not produced by other manufacturers?

Armed interwar urban civilians, which could be used for BoB, or any number of other interwar / VBCW / WWII conflicts.

Lon / Nick
Come on, sell the figures in the UK.
There is definitely a market here for them, as they are such great figures, and cover conflicts that no one else covers.

PLEASE.......

I too would love to see them sold in the UK! However  ordering from Lon is super easy! My order went in yesterday  8)

And civilians would be a great shout too.

In fairness, Lon is spot on with his mail order.

Guys,

Just wanted to add, that I'm in no way working with Lon or Brigade Games. I had a chat with him at the last two conventions, and therefore my post about possible new figures/packs.

I did, however, pass on about figures being available in the UK.  :)

I would second the WW 1 Austro-Hungarians in stahlhelms (useful for Russian Front as well as Italian), perhaps done as stormtroops (and could add a flamethrower team to that; and perhaps s junior officer/sr nco with the the Austrian trench club and a pistol).  WW 1 Austro-Hungarian Skoda 37mm M1915 Infanteriegeschutz regimental gun (see link below - each regt. had two); an Austro-Hungarian higher command/staff blister (a counterpart to the Italian Higher Command blister Brigade already makes).  An Italian flamethrower team to accompany the Arditi assault troops.  Arditi Villar-Perosa M 1915 "light machine gun" team.   Perhaps a couple of blisters of Rommel and his Alpine Corps troops for Caporetto.  Perhaps a blister of Arditi or other Italians in Adrian helmets.

Scarab already make all these!
I second the call for some separate Madsen MGs though...
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Scarab figures are unusable if your collection already consists of GW, Brigade Games and/or Copplestone.  Scarab figures are ENORMOUS (a previous thread on this forum showed comparison pictures of these next to each other and, as described, Scarab looked like ogres next to the other miniatures).  Scarab's line just doesn't scale with Great War, or Copplestone, or Brigade Games -  the three of which are compatible with each other and none of which are compatible with Scarab.
