Whats next from Empress?
« on: January 04, 2011, 04:05:02 PM »
Just bit of fishing here. Anyone got any ideas on any future additions to their colonial range? I'd like to see Frontier Light Horse, Native contingents, ASC and medical troops, Naval Brigade, casualties, lots of Boers and hopefully some more personalities......well one can only ask. lol

Hopefully some more of the colonial range... just to give me a chance to paint all the modern Afghans I got for Christmas.  ;)

I would like highlanders, sailors and native troops for the Brits. But I still have tons of models that needs paint anyway, so I am not in the hurry.

Any additions to their Zulu War range is very welcome. As for the next range they would do.... I'd love them to do NW Frontier!!

Frontier Light Horse... I may have mentioned this in the past  :D

To be honest, a head sprue would do as the Newcastle Rifles/Buffalo Border Guard figures are in the uniform.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Hopefully some Blackshirts and Alpini figures for the Abyssinian Range.  An Italian command set complete with a radio+operator wold be nice.

How about some parachute-equipped sheep for the Italians?

I was very pleased to get the Boers, so I do hope that part of the range will be expanded in 2011.
I'd quite like some Frontier Light Horse and some Native Infantry. I'd probably ask for some varriants on the Zulus, to help me paint another 30 or so during this year, but I'll probably be shouted at again for suggesting that... :'(

Some British High Command would be nice too and some Highlanders.

Another vote for characters from Rorkes drift, I would like the following packs in light of a project I am working on-
1)Surgeon Reynolds, Rev Smith,Commissary Dalton, Lt Adendorf
2)Cpl Scheiss, AN Other Cpl NNC , a walking wounded NMP and ditto regular infantryman form the hospital.

I dont disagree with any of the other suggestions either!
