Thanks!

It's good to see some more options coming along for WW1. With ICM being softskin orientated a few WW1 lorries would be nice for the future.

These new WW1 infantry sets are good value especially as each contains one of their WW1 weapon and equipment sets.

Good to see new releases, personally would have preferred more relaxed pose, was this the set that was illustrated as marching ??? Al, heads up, the 9.2" has been sent off for the test casting.....some parts need to be made, but these depend on part assembly to check size and fit.

I mentioned it earlier but these rifleman may as well be 'in step' marching to contact, the officer is the only one right foot forward. It's a shame, as now the legs aren't interposable to give some different options. I hope we see more releases to extend the range already given, American Doughboys/ Marines would be great to see.

A list I saw says next up will be Anzacs, 1915 and then some Italians along with an equipment set for them.

Hi George,

Thanks for the head up. I agree more generic poses would have been nice, I held out for these in marching pose but have now started a few conversions instead.

They should fit in well with the Tamiya set.

Paul thanks for the heads up on the Aussies, they will probably be advancing troops also so I'm converting a couple of the MB set for Aussie marching infantry.

There is a big need for artillery crew, medics and generic workers lol.

Cheers

Al

Not to mention cavalry, tunellers and trench raiders!

Also I re-checked(hannants future release section) hey also list a set of 12 figures listed as eastern front, Russians, Germans and Austro-hungarians! Unsure if is a new set or if they are struggling to shift some of the earier sets?

Paul

Still hoping for some AEF figures...

Is there a late war British set for the final scene from Blackadder Goes Forth?

Hannants have listed some future ICM figures, it includes US infantry (1917), not to mention greek Evzones 1940/41 aswell.

No Turkish troops yet.....would be great as an Anniversary release for "Gallipoli".

It would be nice to have some troops actually shooting, rather than just charging at each other over the battlefield.
