Ooooh, this sounds like fun!  Plastics, green stuff, Pulp Nazis, stalwart Brits.  I already have some Artizan FFL for the period, this will make great 1930's games.

They look very nice, but I'm beginning to feel like WW2 is overly catered for (although not the Africa campaigns to be fair.) Look forward to seeing more. I wonder if they will do any vehicles at some point!

I think including sun helmets was genius, not many companies produce Afrika Korps wearing them.

I just bought a 1/48 BF-109, so a raid on a German airfield sounds in order!  ;)

Nice, but no release-date. And only some casts. Time will bring some save information...

Thanks for the very good news. I'm sure we will see all the bit and pieces that you would see on these guys coming out in the box set. I loved the Airfix sets at the time. The pith helmet is great. I can now have some of my DAK tank crews wearing them.

Cheers,

Helen
Best wishes,

Bearing in mind that we are still awaiting the ACW Confederates, the Austrians and the AWI infantry, I think we will be lucky if they appear in 2012. :'(

I think you'll be lucky if they make it by the end of 2013.

The backlog of plastics being released from various companies must be mounting.

From what Richard and Simon are saying on the Perry Mounted Men@Arms, it will be worth it.

Cheers,

If these are a bit larger than their standard pygmys of miniatures, they would be of some interest. I generally dont like Perry miniatures at all, but these looks okay.
