More welcome news for the Allies, I'm glad to see this figure set coming along. The figures look pretty good and I take Jim's point about the order of dress. However, I note the commander is in long trousers whilst the crew are in shorts and that's a nice touch, so a bit of variety there.
Good for them for following up on the origial release with a crew adding a lot more options to the finished kit.

.....and change those helmets for something of the right size. Too small at present, look more like a "seaside hat" than a helmet.

Hi Alan,
Small details lol, lol. I do like the stance of the commander, nice natural looking pose. The gunner and the loader look OK too, nothing I can see that couldn't be fixed. Looks like they are wearing Bombay Bloomers by the length of the shorts.

Is there anyone in the US that carries Vulcan? I'd like to get the 2pdr and crew, but all I can find are overseas vendors.
