American Civil War - Generals and Leaders

It's been quite a while between now and our last ACW release.  And so to make at least a little amends for that we're releasing these Civil War "personalities" that we've been asked for.  We're also making them available as single pieces or collectively in small sets with their own special box.

• CW083 -- General Robt. E .Lee - The South's military "supremo" and a legendary figure in the history of the Civil War. Although we have produced him before I believe this is our best "Lee" yet!
• CW084 -- General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson - Lee's right hand man and his confidant. His death was a mighty blow for the Confederacy. Here he stands, deep in thought.
• CW085 -- General J.E.B. Stuart - Lee's flamboyant and bold cavalry leader...and his "eyes and ears".
• CW086 -- Major General George E. Pickett - One of Lee's most colourful and brave generals...He led the bloody but ultimately futile assault at the Battle of Gettysburg that bears his name..."Pickett's Charge".
• CW101 -- Robert E. Lee & His Generals - The combined set of Lee and 3 of his generals together with a map table...in a specially designed box.
• CW087 -- President Abraham Lincoln - "Honest Abe" in a typical Lincoln pose...one hand behind his back the other holding his coat lapel. A towering figure, even without his stove-pipe hat, Lincoln held the Union together through its worst times and helped lead it to victory...eventually.
• CW088 -- General Grant at the Table - General U.S. Grant closely studies a map to better plan his next move.
• CW090 -- General George Meade - One of Lincoln's key commanders...He led the Union forces that defeated Lee at Gettysburg.
• CW091 -- Brigadier General George A. Custer - Promoted to Brigadier General just 3 days before the Gettysburg battle, Custer was a highly effective although rash and impetuous cavalry leader throughout the Civil War...he paid for his faults 13 years later at the Little Big Horn.
• CW102 -- Abraham Lincoln & His Generals - The president together with Generals Grant, Meade and Custer...all in one special box.

American Civil War

D-Day 1944 - American Forces

• DD179 -- M4A3E8 'Easy-Eight' Sherman - This is K&C's second version of this iconic U.S. tank...We released a "winter" camouflaged "Easy-Eight" to accompany our last Battle of the Bulge GI's in late 2012. At the time many collectors also asked for a "standard" olive drab version and here it is! The "Easy-Eight" was faster, better armoured and, of course, mounted the impressive 76mm main gun. Our K&C model is all "buttoned-up" and ready for action but also has a half-body tank commander in the open top turret hatch on the lookout for the enemy.

D-Day '44

D-Day 1944 - British Forces

• DD202 -- Morris C8 Field Artillery Tractor & Limber  - Commonly known as the "Quad" this was the British and Empire's primary vehicle to haul the 25 pounder gun howitzer and its limber. Originally designed in the late 1930's as war with Germany approached the Morris C8 Quad came into operational service with the Royal Artillery in October 1939...It stayed in production throughout the war until 1945. During the war (and for many years afterwards) they saw action wherever and whenever British and Empire Forces were engaged. Our K&C model sports typical "Mickey Mouse" camouflage and comes complete with a seated R.A. driver and the artillery limber for the ammunition.
• DD204 -- British 25 Pounder Field Gun - If the Sherman tank was an American military "icon" of WW2 then the "25 Pounder" must be a British one!!! For generations of British guys (of a certain age) and that includes me...we all had models of 25 pounders in among our toy soldiers...Different versions and scales of this gun were manufactured by Britains, Lone Star and, of course, DINKY. I love this little field gun and I hope you will too... Over 13,000 were built (of the real gun) in Britain, Canada and Australia and remained in service with different overseas armies until the late 1970's. The K&C "25 Pounder" is in plain olive drab and comes with a removable seated gunner so that collectors can have the gun "in action" with other crew members or being towed behind the Quad and Limber.
• DD205 -- Gun Commander - A single, standing officer about to give the order to commence fire!
• DD206 -- Kneeling Bombardier - A kneeling corporal complete with "rammer".
• DD207 -- Shell and Charge Loaders - Two "gunners", one holding an H.E. (High Explosive) shell and the other holding the charge... ready for battle.

D-Day '44 - British and Canadian

Fields of Battle

Recently K&C released our latest French Caf�/Restaurant (SP054) building. Well, what's a typical caf� without a couple of surly staff! Special Note: Of course you might be asking...who are they serving? Here's a "sneak peek"! The Germans will arrive shortly together with caf� tables and chairs.

• FOB092 -- French Waiter with Vichy Water - Dressed in the "classic" black and white French waiter's costume our waiter carries a metal tray upon which sits a large bottle of Vichy Water and two glasses.
• FOB093 -- French Waiter Pouring Coffee - Another waiter pouring a cup of coffee...Is it "real" or "ersatz"...you decide.

Fields of Battle

COMMANDO ATTACK

Shortly after Dunkirk when the British Army had just escaped, by the skin of its teeth, from the Germans, Prime Minister Winston Churchill was already planning to strike back at the enemy.
Although he knew that Britain was incapable of any large-scale offensives against the all-conquering Nazi hordes he did recognize that they were vulnerable to surprise raids and attacks on their now vastly expanded European "Empire"... But he was going to need some special men with special skills who could think and act "outside of the box" militarily.
Thus was born "The Commandos". Small, highly trained, independently minded units of crack fighting soldiers who could "hit and run" where the enemy least expected it and disappear before the enemy could effectively react.
K&C's new "Commandos" portray the all-volunteer unit as they would have appeared in action in mid war 1942/43.
No less than 12 face-blackened Commandos take part in this, our first raid on enemy territory. An officer and two sergeants lead a crew of cut throats on a mission to take out an enemy position somewhere in occupied Europe...

• DD190 -- Shooting Officer -  Binos in one hand, .455 Webley Service revolver in the other this officer leads his men into the attack.
• DD191 -- Sergeant firing 'Tommy' Gun - In the early days of the Commandos, the Thompson sub machine gun was one of the main weapons of choice...This NCO takes careful aim with his.
• DD192 -- Lance Corporal Bren Gunner - Classic action pose with the classic Light Machine Gun...providing covering fire.
• DD193 -- Standing Firing Rifle - This Commando is using the Second World War version of the great Lee Enfield rifle...The No.4 Mk.I, began to be issued in 1941 and the Commandos were among the first units to receive the new revised weapon.
• DD194 -- Kneeling Firing Rifle 
• DD195 -- Radio Operator - Carrying the large British back-pack field radio most operators also carried a side arm...In this case a Browning 9mm Automatic.
• DD196 -- Crouching w/'Tommy' Gun - Another senior NCO in a typical Commando pose...'Tommy' gun at the ready.
• DD197 -- Advancing Rifleman - Cautiously edging forward expecting trouble at any time.
• DD198 -- Taking Out The Guard - This great fighting double...is a little one-sided...the poor German guard never knew what hit him! A Commando dagger thrust in the side of the back was reckoned to be so painful you couldn't even scream!!!
• DD199 -- Grenadier - This Commando is just about to throw his "Mills" bomb at the enemy.
• DD200 -- Knife To The Neck - Another knifing technique is the stab to the side of the neck...Extremely painful but the victim will bleed to death in seconds...a bit messy though!
• DD201 -- Crawling Commando - Knife in one hand this Commando is about to take care of the third unfortunate guard...

British Commandos

Now to a gentle garden or park somewhere in China.

• HK217 -- New Chinese Pagoda - A new upgraded version of an old favorite and perfect for any "Streets of Old Hong Kong" display or "Imperial Collection" diorama.

Streets of Hong Kong - Matt Finish

Normandy 1944 - German Forces

• WS228 -- Jagdpanther Ausf.GI - The Jadpanther (or Hunting Panther) was a German tank destroyer built on the chassis of the already successful Panther tank.
  It combined the powerful 88mm gun of the Tiger tank with the excellent armour and suspension of the Panther. This all-new Jagdpanther (K&C's last version goes back to 2004) is a battle weary one from the summer of 1944 covered in "zimmerit" paste that has been "chipped-away" in combat revealing the original rust-brown undercoat applied at the factory.
  Although most Jagdpanthers appeared on the Eastern Front they also fought in small numbers in the Battle of Normandy. The K&C model comes with two tank-crew figures who can be seen in the open hatches.
  A "winter" version will be released later in the year.

New July Releases
Great War 1918 and Knights of the Skies!

Berliet was a French manufacturer of automobiles, buses, trucks and other utility vehicles, based in V�nissieux, outside of Lyon, France.

The Berliet CBA was one of the most important vehicles of WW1, it has been described as a Great War equivalent to the GMC, GAZ AA or Opel Blitz of WW2.

The Company that made the CBA Truck started in 1894 when Marius Berliet started experimenting with gasoline engines and built their first, primitive car. In 1906, Berliet's introduced their first real commercial truck, a chain-drive 2-tonne cab-over-engine machine, When WW1 started Berliet had just added a new 6-tonne truck to their range, this was the Berliet CBA.

The Berliet CBA followed the rather modern earlier designs of the Company, in that it featured a four-cylinder gasoline engine (25 HP, with a honeycomb radiator) with a chain drive, and steel chassis frame, instead of wood. It had a four-speed gearbox, solid rubber tires and a bumper in front of the radiator. It could carry some 3.5 tons and had a maximum speed of 30km/h.

Berliet offered the CBA to the Army, who accepted it as a standard truck.

It soon proved to be a very reliable and functional vehicle, and was to play a major part in the endless truck convoys on the "Sacred Road" which supplied the French forces fighting the Battle of Verdun in 1916.

The success of the CBA was not just due to the performance of the vehicle, but just as much to the fact that the firm of Berliet was such a modern and effective manufacturer.

In 1915 Berliet set up the World's first real Assembly Belt-type of production line. This led both to the price per unit being lowered, for the first time making motor transport as cheap as horse transport, and the production rate being very high - every day 40 new CBAs rolled out of the factory. At the end of the war 25,000 trucks had been delivered to the armed services.

The Berliet CBA was to be used all through the 20s and 30s and during the first years of WW2.

Raid on Saint Francis, 1759

Battle of the Plains of Abraham also suitable for Battle of Fort Carillon, Ticonderoga fought on July 8, 1758 and Battle of Leuthen 1757 - Seven Years War

The R�giment de B�arn was a French Army regiment active in the 18th century, and was recruited from the Picardy region of France. It is principally known for its role in the Seven Years' War, when it served with distinction in the North American theatre.

French Regiments at this time consisted of two battalions.

The two battalions of this regiment operated on different theatres of operation for most of the Seven Years' War.

The 1st Battalion remained in Europe, and was assigned to the defence of the coasts. At August 1, 1757, the 1st Battalion was stationed at La Rochelle in the Aunis country.

The 2nd battalion was sent to New France, and arrived in June 1755.

The Regiment was to take part at the siege of Fort William Henry 1757, and in 1758, the regiment participated in the defense of Fort Carillon.

On September 13, 1759, they were present during the siege of Quebec City, and at the Battle of The Plains of Abraham, it was deployed in the centre.

This Regiment probably underwent the most changes in its uniform, than any other regiment in New France. Waistcoats, collars and cuffs were originally blue, but were changed to red in 1757.

In 1760, the 2nd battalion returned to France.

The Royal Ecossais was raised in 1744 and discharged in 1752. Their officers were Scots and Irish, often exiled Jacobites, and the soldiers were of many European nationalities, including Scots, Irish and English. The regiment was raised by Lord John Drummond and was a regiment of Scots mercenaries in French service.

Battle of Chippewa - War of 1812

This period was full of activity for the Marines. Starting with the fights with the Barbary corsairs, and continuing throughout the War of 1812. The Marines were to take part in virtually every action at sea, on the Great Lakes, and also in many engagements on land. A section of the line at New Orleans were held by the Marines at this battle. Therefore they were extremely active despite the strength of the corps only averaging about 1,000 officers and men.

New Releases Expected July 2013!
2nd Dutch Guard Lancers

First Legion presents you with the 2nd Lancers of the Imperial Guard, the legendary Red Lancers! Raised in 1810 originally of Dutchmen after the French annexation of Holland, the regiment served with distinction during all campaigns between 1812 and 1815. As the regiment was destroyed in 1812 during the Russian Campaign, the replacements were primarily Frenchmen and being one of the few original Dutch by 1815 was a source of great pride. With their striking red uniforms, their fearsome lances, and superb Colonel Edouard Colbert, the Red Lancers of the Guard served with great distinction in Russia, Saxony, the low countries, and the 100 days. We have presented them here in charging and fighting poses with nine total figures.

Seven Years War

• SYW021 Frederick the Great - King of Prussia - Frederick the Great was King of Prussia from 1740 - 1786 and was best known of his military genius and exploits along with his reorganization of the Prussian army. Like all great captains through history, Frederick was a serious student of military history and theory. Though he took part in the Silesian Wars in the 1740's, he is best known for his leadership of the Prussian Army in the Seven Years War from 1756 to 1763. Facing a powerful coalition made up of Austria, France, Russia, Sweden, and Saxony and with only England as an ally, he managed to repeatedly drive off invading armies and to keep Prussia in the war. Known for leading from the front, we have presented him here actively leading and inspiring his troops. One of the highest compliments paid to Frederick was that another great captain, Napoleon Bonaparte, called him the greatest tactical genius of all time.
• SYW022 General Hans Joachim von Zieten - Hans Joachim von Zieten was a Lieutenant-General in the Prussian Army of the Seven Years War. He was one of Fredericks most trusted generals and served with distinction at numerous battles including the disaster at Kolin where his corps was the only victorious corps in the army. At Leuthen his cavalry initiated the attack and eventually drove the Austrians from the field. Though his career certainly had it's highs and lows, he retired a hero of Prussia.

Seven Years War

Waffen SS, Normandy 1944

The Waffen-SS was initially created as the armed wing of the Nazi Party, but gradually over the course of the war was expanded to some 38 divisions. They fought on both the Eastern and Western front alongside the Heer Divisions of the German Army. They were typically given priority for equipment and were, at least initially, made up of the most loyal and die hard soldiers. As such they proved extremely capable in battle with the tank divisions in particular being most feared by their opposition. Created for our Battle of Normandy range, these extremely flexible toy soldiers can be used as Panzer Grenadiers from just about any Waffen-SS division including 12th SS Hitler Jugend, 1st SS Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, 17th SS Gotz von Berlichingen, 2nd SS Das Reich, 9th SS Hohenstaufen, or 10th SS Frundsberg. Our inspiration was to have them as members of the 17th SS opposing the US Paratroopers at the Battle of Bloody Gulch famously depicted in the mini-series Band of Brothers, however, as you can see they can represent any of these formations. With this latest expansion of our Battle of Normandy figure range the US now have some opposition as the Waffen-SS take the field!

New Expected July 2013! - Custer Charge at Gettysburg - Third day of the Battle of Gettysburg, July 3, 1863.

One of General Custer�s finest hours in the Civil War occurred east of Gettysburg. In conjunction with Pickett�s Charge to the west, Robert E. Lee dispatched J.E.B Stuart�s cavalry on a mission into the rear of the Union Army. En route to Little Round Top, Custer encountered the Union cavalry division of Brig. Gen. David McMurtie Gregg, directly in the path of Stuart�s horsemen.

Convinced that the Michigan Brigade could make a difference, Gregg asked him to stay and fight. The contest at East Cavalry Field, lasted well into the afternoon hours capping off Lee�s unsuccessful penetration of Cemetery Ridge. Charges, counter charges and hand-to-hand combat ensued. Drawing the Toledo Blade from its scabbard, Custer rode out front of the troops and led a mounted charge of the 1st Michigan Cavalry, "Come on you Wolverines!" breaking the back of the Confederate assault.

Custer�s brigade lost 257 men at Gettysburg, the highest loss of any Union cavalry brigade. Never before has so much extensive thought and detail gone into recreating the most historically accurate renderings of the Michigan Cavalry Brigade. The crack unit led by Brigadier General George Armstrong Custer and was quite possibly responsible for saving the Union right flank during the 3rd day of fighting at Gettysburg.

Accurately portrayed for the first time is the "Boy General" in his signature Black Velveteen Uniform and Red Tie astride his iron gray thoroughbred "Roanoke" a horse he'd hesitated to use in battle but was forced to when his horse "Harry" was shot from under him the day before at the Battle of Hunterstown.

The Standard Bearer carries the Michigan Cavalry Brigade Guidon often overlooked and stunningly recreated by the master artists and sculptors of Andrea Miniatures.

Joseph Fought the General's faithful bugler and confidant is portrayed for the first time here bringing a fitting addition to your home or office in these excellent keepsakes that you'll enjoy for many years to come.

Collect one or collect them all in this introductory collection entitled "Believe in the Bold" struck for this premiere showing at the 150th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg.

New Releases Expected July 2013!
WWII

TG have announced 2 new edition to their July release, which we are hoping will arrive shortly.  We have also been able to obtain a limited supply of Club Figures.

• V004 -- Reichenberg 
• V003A -- Luftwaffe Guards - Normandy 
• TG-FREE001 -- Gunn Club Figure 001 - Max W�nsche 
• TG-FREE002 -- Gunn Club Figure 002 - Generaloberst Eduard Dietl 
• TG-FREE003 -- Gunn Club Figure 003 - Ferdinand Schorner 
• V002 -- Doodlebug and the 2 professors - The V1 was an unmanned flying high explosive warhead mainly aimed at targets in southern England by Hitler as part of his 'Vengeance Weapons' program. Fundamental in the design of this weapon were 2 former aircraft engineers Robert Lusser and Fritz Gosslau. Our set comprises these 2 figures surveying their handiwork on a rainy day in Peenemunde. As its raining, Lusser has removed the glasses he was so often photographed wearing! After the war Lusser went to the USA and assisted the US in the development of their own space program. Gosslau went to work for the Junkers aircraft company where he served as a director until his retirement. This Doodlebug is limited to 100 pieces with the 2 figures and a trailer.
• V003B -- Luftwaffe Guards - Winter Version Only - Every airfield needs security and we have certainly provided it with 2 unique looking Luftwaffe guards. One figure has his rifle slung over his shoulder whilst the second an NCO, has an Alsatian dog to help ensure security is complete at Peenemunde. At present we only have the Winter version of these guards available, the Normandy version will follow next month. Please note the Winter version NCO in soft cap will not come with the snow effect on his hat as this has now been removed.
• WH002A -- SdKfz 140/1 Aufklarungspanzer Reconnaissance Tank - Following a Heer requirement for a new armoured reconnaissance vehicle that could make use of the outdated 38T chassis, the SdKfz 140/1 was born. Just over 100 were made in 1944 before production was ceased in favor of the SdKfz 234 Puma series. Armed with a 2cm KwK 38 L55 cannon, the SdKfz 140/1 was well liked by its crews. As the tide of war turned against the Germans, the need for such light tanks was soon becoming obsolete. However as with all vehicles left in the German inventory, these tanks were sued right up until the end of the war. TGM has produced 200 of this beautiful looking vehicle in a Normandy and Winter version.! Please note no crew figure is included, although SS047 pictured with our tank does look very nice as an accompanying piece.

World War One

Lawrence of Arabia once said "The printing press is the most powerful weapon in the modern commanders armoury" but he still found plenty of uses for the Rolls Royce Armoured Car! Although limited in number they proved invaluable in providing machine gun support for his troops during their hit and run raids against the Turks. Once again TG have only made 100 of these iconic machines.  TG plan to make another Lawrence of Arabia figure later on this year to accompany the Rolls Royce, so watch this space closely!
