WW1 British Complete Tooling!

These look really useful as I am planning a British in Palestine army. How about doing something really radical that no one else appears to have done and give us some WW1 British Cavalry with the Wolseley helmet on the sprue. Not found any manufacturer offering British cavalry for Egypt/Palestine (they seem to think only the Australian Light Horse served there!).

Any news on when the great war British will be released. Original I believe it was going to be January but its gone very quiet and now its march?

Buongiorno quando usciranno gli inglesi della prima guerra mondiale. Grazie

Too few figures; too much equipment. Poses too similar; no prone figure. Perry Miniatures create up to FIFTEEN individualised soldiers per set (see their WW2 American Infantry, for example). That’s why they’ve just been voted top supplier in the world. I like what Wargames Atlantic are trying to do but please be more thoughtful and expansive.

Bloody good!

However, I hope that the WW1 Russians are coming soon as well! Any news about them?

Why no “cups” for the rifle grenadiers? With 8 rifles for just five figures, I would have thought one or two could have been “converted”? There do seem to be a lot of obvious mistakes and omissions from this set, which is a shame as it had the potential to sweep the WW1 market.

@Doshu Tokeshi,
Hats off to you brother, that’s a good catch and as a student of WWI history myself I always enjoy meeting a like-minded person.
I wondered if it was the Canadian 1899 Oliver webbing but no, that’s not it either. I saw some 1916 Mills Cavalry webbing that had a clip in the back but it was also worn crossed.
With the knapsack on the back this won’t be visible and I plan on getting lots of these kits.
For historical interest though, I also wonder what the source was on this. I’m not being cheeky here, it’s possible you have found something historically interesting which would be fantastic.

The sprue looks like it was originally intended for six bodies, and then you replaced one body for a seventh rifle…

There is no need to offer four head options for ALL bodies on the sprue. Half of them would be sufficient, if that gives us another body. Or you produce extra bodies somewhere else…

That said, the box is on autobuy once it pops up with my local retailer. Without IOSS I have to pay the UK Vat, shipping, then the EU VAT on both and another 6€ for the fun of it, so direct orders will be shelved for now :-(
