Can't wait for the WG Italians to be sold as singles.I hate that they sell them in squads with random figures. :(

Not really random - one of each! You get ALL of them, in one blister. Imagine they will break them up soonish.

Oh so you get all 4 NCOs,all 12 riflemen poses and both LMG teams in one box?
I don't think so.
When I got my Poles I ordered 2 of the big boxes and 3 squad boxes.Of the 14( or is it 17?) riflemen poses I got 9.Bars in 3 or 4 poses got 2.Filled them in with singles.

Don't get me wrong, I think having variation in the poses is awesome(I hate when companies make 4 rifle poses and thats it :-[) but then selling them randomly kinda defeats the purpose.
Most companies that have 12 riflemen poses sell "Rifles A" ,"Rifles B", etc with four poses in each pack, WG could do "squad A," "squad B" as long as you knew exactly which freekin miniatures you were actually buying.
Its just a peeve of mine and as long as they sell singles its all good.If they stop selling singles I'll just quit buying their figures.

The gents looking for Italians might be interested in these.
Perry Miniatures released these and haven't drawn much attention to them.

24 figures in the range, 24 poses in the range and what you see is what you get.

Then Italians with pith helmets *might* be on the way too.

Are the Bersaglieri your sculpts Paul?

I would like to do some east front italians, but can't decide on Perry miniatures (which look great!) or Warlord. If only the Perry's would do some support weapons...oh decisions decisions ;)

The Italians are Richard Ansell sculpts with conversions by Warlord Games.
