Hi David,

Thanks for the link. According to Jims report they also have some Jeep crews, British, US and Russian.

Cheers

Al

I've also got advance and production examples of ALL the new sets along with images of some sets which haven't been officially announced. With the backlog of reports I'm doing, i'll probably try and get them posted up tomorrow...

Hi Al

I didn't spot any pics of the MiniArt Bantam or its crew, there is however a couple of sprue shots of the Bronco Humber among the photos (either that or another one on the same site anyway), which has Vickers Ks and and proper Tommy Gun (with the foregrip). Don't think there has been one of them in plastic before.

David

Al the above crews are by Miniart not Masterbox, I often make that mistake too. Miniart figures are a bit sharper thatn Masterbox in my opinion

Hi David,

Sounds good.

Apologies for mixing up the manufacturers names :-) :-) :-) - just put it down to old age and failing eye sight :-) :-) :-) :-)

Cheers guys

Pat I partially agree with you. Miniart haven't sharper details than MB (I'll say the contrary), but Miniart have nicer overall poses, and some sort of artistic vagueness. But for the heads, Miniart is ways better !
David, tahnks for the pic, they are really nice. One thing particularly stroke me : if you look at the both set or russian, they all run on the sem legs !!!! not very original although the rest of the movement and sculpt is just fantastic. For the set of Russian holding machine gun, I'm a disapointed as the poses are nearly all the same..
Anyway, that's so great new !
Jim, please give us modelling food and don't make me wait any longer !! Bring on the reports soldier !!
Best to you all,
Julien
