Two more intersting figures ffrom Jakrei. I like the fellow with the pistol.

Great stuff.

It just struck me that today 17th September is the 63rd anniversary of the start of operation Market Garden and we have two news stories, this and the Mastrbox story, about British Paras.

My wallet can't take this abuse but I have the right figures to go along with this pair to make kick a@# dio

I shall be watching A Bridge to Far later tonight.

Now all I need is a second mortgage, and between MB, Jakrei, and Resicast I should be able to fill my Oosterbeek dio with enough action. Or maybe a Landing zone dio, with a resin Glider (to go with the Glider Pilot?) , or ......

I like the figure with the Sten, his smock looks like the pockets are filled, an often overlooked detail.

On your side of the pond, you could try Colorado Minatures

Over here I know that Friendship Models also carry that line, or we could contact the sculpter direct i belive.

Stockists of Jakrei kits are as follows:


Friendship models-UK
Accurate Armour-UK
Colorado Miniatures-USA
Steel Models-Italy

There will be some more outlets after Euro Militaire

Some have yet to receive stocks of the figures, but all will have them after Euro Militaire.

Thank you all for the kind comments!
I wanted to mention that Maurice has done a superb job with these figures!!!!
Also, these will be cast in resin.
There are some interesting and also unusual figures coming over the next few months, maybe even a German or two!!

Now THAT is interesting...

They do look like beautifully-sculpted figures though. Oh, don't forget the Glider Pilot Regt. either
