Thanks!

Hi Jim. These look very good. Any idea when these will be out?
the box says 1942-43, but would these be ok for 1944 - ie Normandy?

Thank you
Harry

These look good, the positions look good, Some good posibilities.

This is going to be manufacturer to look for in the future. Like ICM.

Not specially, since they've got the long marching boots and pleated pockets on the tunics - ankle boots and plainer tunics (or even the 44 battledress type) would be more appropriate for 1944.

On the other hand, they look as if they could do for 1940 - 41, which is interesting for me - I can see the 3 figures in the foreground having a close encounter with a Char B1bis or Matilda....

EDIT: The four figures in the background look like Masterbox's already released Panzergrenadiers 1939-42 set 3513 reviewed on this site (positively) last year.

These have lots of potential. I think with some minor modifications, they would be fine for 1944

I see no problem in using them for Normandy in 1944. The old boots and tunics were surely in use by some 2nd grade units and/or units that had been stationed there for a longer period of time. However, I would change some of the weapons. At least swap the MG34 with a MG42 and maybe include a panzerfaust.

I agree; there's no problem using these figures in 1944 scenarios.

Personally, I'll get these figures just for the box art. Mr. Karaschuk
does superb work!

I like the art work on the boxes from this company i wish that picture of the completed figures was a little bigger.
The quality from what i can tell from other sets that i have seen pictures of is at least on par with Dragon .

Yeah, their boxart has always veen good, with this set, it's frankly one of the best i've ever seen - anywhere...
