Glad to see these coming along, hopefully the British sets won't be too far behind.

Wonder what the guy at the back is doing. Admiring his pointy bayonet, or trying to skewer a low flying bird for lunch?

Still hoping for some AEF (American Expedition Force) figures, but it's nice to see anyone producing injection molded WWI figures in 1/35. The more, the merrier...

Thanks, Al!

That's a very nice figure (a little on the "Chesty Puller" side, but even so...).

Now I finally have an AEF crewman to go with my FT-17 or Mk IV.

Cheers!

Hi Mike,

I was surprised no AEF figures came out to support the FT and that they were also missing from the ICM announcement.

However, with new armour arriving on the WW1 scene it might not be too long before we see some WW1 Americans.

Cheers
