We have plenty of 1:18 soldiers from WW2 to Modern but I never see WW1 soldiers. Which WW1 force do you guys like to have in 1:18 scale? I do hope to have some WW1 German soldiers.

I agree its not likely to happen - WWI just doesn't have the popular appeal that other eras do. I've only seen WWI items made for the premimum collectors market and most were under 1/30 scale.

bbi was going to do them in their Warriors of the World line, but since that line appears to be dead, so are the hopes of WWI soldiers.
They were also going to do Napoleonic figures, but doesn't look to be happening. Even the civil war figures are dead.
Very too bad.

I'd actually like to see some 1:18 US sailors, including Great White Fleet (pre-WWI) era. I think an officer or two plus a few variants of enlisted would be cool.
If somebody like BBI was to make a few WWI figures, I'd get them. I'd still like to see other non-US, German, or Japanese WWII figures. I'd also love to see some more pilots sold separately that are in their officer's / duty uniforms. I liked that BBI at least had hats that could change on a few guys, but I'm thinking more specifically that a bomber crew would be neat.
