Excellent!

Thanks for releasing a list of what's on the workbench with pack contents. :)

Though no sign of any Belgian cavalry or limbers :(

The Belgian limbers will follow release of the French because they are so similar that that conversions rather than new sculpts will work well. We will look at the possibilities for Belgian cavalry when we have worked our way through the above list. Lots of new moulds to be made!

Yes - The Jägers and Zouaves would offer more variety in uniform and colour. Jägers green would be a relief from German grey on the painting front! On the topic of figure design, their will always be additions to be made and we will continue to add to the WW1 range in response to requests. I will add the Jägers and Zouaves to the 'to do list', but our sculpting and moulding schedule is currently looking very busy indeed - I'm working on moulding additional Samurai at the moment!

Just seams strange there was probably more German Jägers than there was highland soldiers in the British army but we get the highlanders, and the French had a lot of infantry regiments from north Africa dressed in the Zouave stile probably more than the British had Indians in Europe but we get the Indian troops!................ :( :o :shock: :?

Thanks for adding them to the to do list..... :)

I've got lots of beautiful new German, French, and British sculpts begging to be placed between two moulding discs and then subjected to high heat and 14 tons of pressure. The frustrating truth is that with Hammerhead this weekend and WMMs the following weekend, and orders to fullfil, it's very difficult to free up a day at the moment to make the vital mastermoulds. ;)
