Yeah, right! Do these look anything like Esci blobs?

I never knew ESCI did the Red Devils in 35th scale, more likely 32nd scale... Seeing as Bronco has released a few Airborne related items these past years, my best guess is that this is new stuff by them.

Set B looks exactly like Esci kit # 6302. Looks like a re-box.

All new tooling, attrocious artwork and the original Esci set had slightly different poses. To tell the truth the original ESCi set were actually quite good and in 35th scale unlike some of the other sets which were 54mm although labelled 35th. Looking forward to these sets

To be fair these look to be CG mockups rather than the final artwork

I've built one of Broncos figure kits before. Right on par with Dragon if you ask me. Good kits, but can always use some Hornet heads and AM stuff. Just watched A Bridge Too Far so this is exciting news

I hope the film will be an A grade film and not B grade with overweight reenactors with Hollywood magazines...Kit and weapons look good on the cover though...!

Jason, they've got a Facebook page a mate sent me the link to last year. I have to admit I'm not expecting much from it as the actors they've got in it aren't really what you could call well known and not ones that I would rate highly. Looking at what they've put on their page I'm anticipating low budget and something which will probably be full of 50 year old fat reenactors as extras. Definitely won't be in the same league as a Bridge Too Far lol. Probably "The Last Drop" which I bought cheap off ebay and is now holding a worktop up in the kitchen between the worktop and the washing machine it was that good.

I don't think it will up for any Oscars but I'm still happy to give it a go. Even the crappiest films can give us a little inspiration. On a positive note, Chris Nolan is doing a full on Hollywood Dunkirk film (It will have to be good to compare to the John mills/Richard Attenborough version).
