I would love to see some African corps figures. British SAS would be outstanding. I would also love some generic air crew like 21c is getting ready to produce. Also, some troop building kits for basic soldiers, German, American, British and Japanese.

I would like to see British Paras and soldiers of the European theater. They fit in well with what has been made already as far as vehicles and adversaries are concerned. The same goes for WWII Russians.......

WWII-era British Troops - and Russians as well.

We've got plenty of Germans and US Marines, Infantry and Paratroops, and now Japanese.

For my part i would like to see 'other nations' troops. Specifically British (paras, desert rats, european theatre) and Russian troops (both regular and cold weather). Germans are well covered but i still would like ss troops in camo smocks and afrika korps....two glaring absentees.

I'd like to see some British Paratroopers would fit nicely with the other stuff made, espically with the new US paratroopers. Ive been thinking of making a Pegasus Bridge dio lately too...

British Para for either D-Day from either Arhnem Operations.

British & Commenwealth Chindits to go with the Merril Mauraders in the PTO.

Desert SAS/LRDG figures & maybe a Chevy truck (as there are plenty of jeeps already out there).

Well---I think the biggies for me are Deutsche Afrika Korps (DAK), British desert (SAS), British Paratroops (Red Devils), and then support staff/ground crews for US troops.

I'd really like to see anyone make squad or 1/2 squad sets of:

U.S. 29th inf Div

German panzergenadiers

Russian infantry

The ability to purchase 1/2 or whole squads would certainly make it easier for those of us who rarely see them in the stores.

My "plan" is to get a few squads for squad level wargaming in 1/18 scale.

i need some communists and some khaki.

thus, my preference is for russians (political officers, cold-weather siberian troops, or regular infantry) and british (desert, paratrooper, or regular).

and then a t-34 and a 17 pounder to boot :o

SS camo. Russians. US medics, RTO's, divisional staff, mechanics, I'll buy 'em all! British Red Devils.

Better articulation and removeable parts.

I'd like to see what bbi could do with some Germans. Suspect they'd be different enough from 21C to stand apart on their own.

You might think I'm being unrealistic, but I would like to see some Hungarian and Italian forces, but for a more likely choice of something new, any forces British and/or Russian.
