Early War Germans

Who makes the best early war Germans in 28mm?
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

I have talked with Ian sunday. He is in business. Next release (after several nice trucks) will be the might Belgian army and then French troops in summer uniform!

Said that I can only second the previous recommendation. BEF infantry is definitely the way to go. And the vehicles too.

I have some of the Crusader WWII Germans. They are nicely done, and have a very tidy, early war appearance.  I can't say how they compare to the BEF minis, though.

Ian is most definitely still in business and his figs are great.

The French infantry figures accompanying the tanks pictures are from Crusader Miniatures.
