What a great looking set! the bikes and figures look really nice, from what can be seen in the photos.
Very welcome release with loads of potential.

Hi Pat,
Thanks for the update, glad to see these finally coming along. Good for them making somthing new and unusual. Timely too.
Now with the MB Horsa and C47 announced what we need are some highly detailed 1/35 parachutes in nice White, Blue, Yellow, Black, Red and Khaki colours, to atttache to the containers .
A hand cart or two would also be a useful item!
Given all the wired and wonderful things produced for the modelling world, I'm surprised no one ever got around to making parachutes
This is excellent news and I'm glad to hear Tristar are back on solid ground
Good to see they have also included the cradles for the containers.
