Hi Jim,
Yes you could use those as Canadians. Change the helmets to Mk III (or even the ones they have will suffice) just remember the Canadian Battledress was what is described as a bronze green. Here's a Pic of a Queens Own on D Day I did. If you want you can PM me and I can describe how I got the colour
Sorry little off topic but just showing how this kit can have variety.
Also I do believe the Black Watch of Canada actually used Pipers in Battle I could be wrong.
Cheers
Ray

Put your hand up if you love masterbox figure sets!
Their releases just get better and better, the highlanders are an awesome set that I will have to build! I also like the Germans with the flag, (am also interested if the set will include the flag and if it will be politically correct or not). The guards look a little boring but will have their uses i'm sure, the point is they are a bit different.
Bravo masterbox for more original figure sets!

Two and a half cheers for the Highlanders, I'll reserve the other half since some figures for 1940 (St Valery anyone?) would have been even better from my point of view.

It would really be nice if the plaid came as a decal.

Hi Al
You need to go to Masterboxes site to see up to date info, unless Armorama get it as a news release. I notice they say their catalogue is complete with the German set showing four figures carrying another in a blanket but can't find it stocked anywhere so I guess they are being made and are in the system as it where. As regards your inquiry, still in progress it would seem

Thanks

As has been mentioned any commonwealth Tropps are a bonus. Looks like an excellent set.
