Love the bloke in the kilt, sadly, it dragged him under and killed him, trying to swim the Rhine to safety.
For donkey's years I've mithered sculptors to make a KOSBie piper, piping the lads from the D/Zs, so far without any takers. I cobbled one up, years ago, from the Commando set of Lord Lovat and Piper Millin. I'm kind of suspicionioned that, Mr. Hicks might just make a better job of 'im!

You could probably have a go at the Piper in late war British pack LB9, file down the hood on his smock...

Cheers Ash. My 'Brigadier Jamie Holdbridge-Stuart', is an SAS figure wearing a hooded smock thingy. I tickled up the the hood to make it resemble a como face vial, worn over his Denison.

Hi All,

We are currently going through the process of making all of the moulds relevant to the Arnhem Heroes Kickstarter.

This has taken longer that expected due to some lost time over Christmas and January. However the end is in sight and we are just setting up the details on the Kickstarter so stay tuned.

However the important part of this announcement is that the Kickstarter is currently planned to go live on March 10th 2023 so pleaser make a note in your diary's.

We will of course be putting out a huge amount of announcements between now and then so stay tuned. Please help us make this a success by putting the word around your mates, gaming clubs, infact anyone.

Cheers,

The Pauls

I don't maintain a diary.  So, I've logged it into my internal memory.  We'll see how that works out...
