1776 American Revolution
It’s been a while since K&C launched any new American Revolution figures so they thought they should remedy that situation with a big bang…
HESSIANS!
When the revolution in the American Colonies began Britain found herself, as usual, quite unprepared. Global commitments stretched the Army to breaking point and reinforcements were urgently required to deal with the upstart rebels… But where to find them? George III and his Government utilized their Royal links to the House of Hanover to seek help with the many princely states and duchies of Germany. For a hefty price many of these penniless states were only too happy to rent out their armies in the British cause. The House of Hesse provided a large proportion of these German mercenaries to fight (and die) in the Americas. K&C’s latest “1776” release portrays a typical Regiment of Hessian Grenadiers wearing their long pigtails and tall mitre Grenadier caps. Again K&C is releasing a total of thirteen individual Grenadiers that allows collectors to assemble as large (or as small) a display as their collection will allow.

“Hitler’s Paris Visit”
From Germans of the eighteenth century to Germans of the twentieth… Following the defeat of France in June 1940 Hitler made his one and only visit to the French capital. Early one morning the Fuhrer and his entourage toured the deserted streets of Paris “sightseeing”. The few pedestrians and policemen were amazed to see a small convoy of German Mercedes staff cars stop and view many of the city’s most famous landmarks. They were even more amazed to see Adolf Hitler among the “tourists”.
WS106 “Hitler’s Paris Visit”
An all-new, second version of the older “Hitler’s Staff Car”. This upgraded, more detailed set is also larger than the first version. The set includes a standing, saluting Fuhrer… his personal SS driver… two seated Nazi officers plus two SS bodyguards (one with Schmeisser) perched on the back seat of the Mercedes. An outstanding set and a definite “best-seller”.
WS107 “German War Correspondents”
Three SS War Correspondents following the Fuhrer’s progress through Paris (or elsewhere). One saluting officer… one movie cameraman and… one “snapper” with his favourite “Leica”. A great little set… and useful too!
AVAILABILITY: EARLY APRIL
From a peaceful Paris we go back to the battlefield with a whole batch of “early-war” Waffen SS in action. Clad in their distinctive camouflage smocks and helmet covers these particular troops are perfect for Blitzkrieg action in Poland… The Low Countries… France… Yugoslavia… Greece and, of course “Operation Barbarossa”, the invasion of Russia. Six different sets of individual and small groups of figures will be available…
