Plastic Figure News Cavalcade, we have some news of upcoming figures from Hat and Chintoys. I may have spotted another future release from Mars. First, I will share a fun thing Laurie and I did recently.
We did on a Sunday
John was just like you see and hear him on television. We were able to get his autograph and photos with him. He was very nice and did several photos. It was a nice day.
Plastic Figure News Cavalcade Rahway Finds
One again Rahway has found out some interesting figure news. First, he has found the next upcoming releases from Chintoys. They are CHT017 Knights Templar and CHT018 Knights Hospitaller. No further details or pictures at this time, but the suggested price they will have mounted figures. The Knights Hospitaller will be for me the more interesting of the two as I believe they have been not been done or only a few times in plastic.
The other news Rahway turned up was on Hat. Here is what Rahway said: Hat Toy Soldiers has posted pictures of the test sprues for the Sevens Years War Austrian Grenadiers and Fusiliers. The Fusiliers have separate hats and several figures have separate arms.
Future Mars Figures WWII Elite Germans in Winter Dress
When I looked at the upcoming releases that Hannants has posted, I spotted another future set from Mars. The future set is No 3214 WWII Elite Germans in Winter Dress. The set will contain 15 figures in 8 poses.
The poses are as follows:
- Getting ready to throw a grenade
- Standing firing Schmeiser
- Standing with a rifle at waist
- Running firing Russian machine gun
- Kneeling firing Schmeiser
- Sitting firing Scope Rifle
- Kneeling firing small mortar
- Kneeling firing rifle
No date has been giving for their release. You can see a photo of them here.
Looks like they would work with TSSD’s Battle of Stalingrad Germans.
Christian Aldo, these are for you!!!
FYI No.3 is holding a Russian Degtyarev LMG.
