...I wondered if they would do German paras soon. Apart from possibly the Luftwaffe version of the desert field cap, theoretically they could be used for any mid to late war theatre I guess.

I wonder if they will do some GIs next for Torch etc...

Great minds think alike, however, I've already started on my Italians for Sicily.

Cheers, H.
Best wishes,

Well, now they really need to do British paras (again). I do wish they would do some Brits in trousers, shirtsleeves and No 4 rifles.

Quite a while back I converted Perry Brits to Airlanding for Sicily but couldn't muster the will to convert Afrika Korp to Falschie..... So very good news indeed

I wonder if this heralds a box of plastic German paras... They do like remaking the old Airfix HO sets...  ::)

Hi Richard, going by the FB comments I don't think so. I'm guessing they have enough to do at the moment populating the Germans, Brits, Italians and French.

Americans, next year perhaps?

Best regards,

Not at all an also very excited. Sicily is a campaign that I believe is not as popular as other fronts. Plus I get to field CV 35s, R 35s and Italian SP guns. I guess trying to find a Fiat 3000 will be difficult. Then there is the HG elements. So the list goes on.
