Heer46 have anounced their upcoming Indigogo campaign called "German Army at Kharkov - The last victory in the east"



source Heer46

There's not much information yet on when it all starts and what the goals are but Brother Vinni (whom I until now only knew for his barely clad slave girls and such) will be sculpting the range(s?).

The Charkow 1943 Indiegogo campaign by Heer46 is now live.



There are 9 different pledge levels available, ranging from a single sqad of 10 men to a whole Kampfgruppe (personally I'd call it a Platoon) consisting of 4 squads, a mortar a MMG a SdKfz. 251 and a Panzer III (both vehicles are Rubicon models.



Please note there are two different sqads available (Trupp A and Trupp B) and each of these sqads consists of 10 different poses. So if you pledge for the Infanteriezug 1 deal you'll get 20 different infantry figures, a Mortar and a MMG for example.



Estimated delivery date is stated as April 2016.

and here's the mandatory comparison shot (figures were painted by fellow LAFer Stoessi and can bee seen here too)

While I wish you luck the figs are way too expensive for what you get. I really like the period but I will have to pass. Sorry.

did they clarify if these are resin, metal, plastic?  I also wondered if the sections would be repeat rifleman as the silhouettes suggest or unique sculpts.

I suspect its too early for such details?

@Kardouki:
Well, it's not my company I just want to see the figures realised. But you're right they're a little on the expensive side compared to other Kickstarters and even regularly available ranges. But still they're cheaper than say Empress for example... over here at least.
Also I prefer to pay a little more and get some quality figures as before paying a little less and getting scrap metal (Backer Company Kickstarter anyone?) or nothing at all because they've misscalculated.

As I said before  ;)

All the figures in Trupp A will be individual and unique sculpts as will be the figures in Trupp B.
They'll be all metal figures.

They look Great.
I will wait till they are complete 2016 and then buy the army.
Will the site have a great painting Guide, which would be advantageous and might help to move the figures easier.
look forward to see the end result.
Cheers
David

The guys from the spanish Painting War Magazine will do a Painting guide (in English) which will be available as a stretch goal.

This is a very interesting initiative, and I have pledged for a full platoon of them! Great figures.

Jup, they are awesome! I had the pleasure of painting a few of them already and they were all really fun to paint. Really high-quality stuff with crisp details. Already have the next bunch of them on my workbench. Yay!

How many rifleman poses are there? If I order a platoon, am I basically getting 20 to 30 of the same figure?

@ axabrax - here is the answer to your question!

Must say I am really tempted by this, they look really good.

The creator has also commented on the campaign that there will be a crew for the sdkfz 251.
