Gentlemen,
today I received my brand new Bronco 25pdr Pheasant and I must say that it does fulfill the expections at first sight. I did not have time to inspect the parts more closely, but they sure look sweet.
The kit holds 2 rounds each of two types of HE and 2 types of AP munition, same as the 17pdr. ammo avialble in the separate set. AA great addition is that there is a comprehensive decals sheet for the ammo and boxes included. I hope that this set will be made avialable separately, too.
I just noticed that a british gun crew will be released soon, too.
This certainly is a great time for artillery modellers.
Cheers,
Guido

There is a seperate 17pdr Ammo set available mentioned here
& also a ETO crew Model Armour news

You should hang the Pheasant by the fetlocks for at least a week before consumiing, btw...

Yep! These are the ones!
I hope the 25pdr. will receive the same attention and even a wider choice of crew. However I am quite happy with what's out by now.

I fear my Pheasant will fall of the fetlocks before I get around to built it...

Cheers,
Guido
