New Caesar Miniatures sets

[Bormac]

One of the webshops shows photos of new Caesar figures.

Surprisingly it isn't earlier announced figures from Russo-Japan or Spanish-American wars. It isn't Belgian and Dutch WWII soldiers also.

Caesar will release new German WWII figures...

How imaginative

[Mai Strac]

Only germans??

[RCD]

suprise, suprise! Yes Third Reich products sell - pity they cannot follow the example of Strelet and produce sets like the Police battalion and their Stalingrad set which are a more accurate representation of the German forces on the Eastern front.

Like most people I am disappointed that there a less of the sets I want and more frikkin Germans.

However I think for once these choices are quite clever - artillery and Flak 18 crews without having to buy models and panzer crews in combat, are sets which are overdue - if you're a WW2 German collector (which I'm not).

At least the three sets of Redbox salty sea-dog sailors haven't disapointed so far.

I try not to nag too much. I'll buy the artillery crews and even the winter tankriders. But even considering the germans are popular why not just a few Russians?
And why not with every new wave of germans just a pair, two, of other announced sets?
( the French ww1 would make me happy...)

At this point they should just change the name of the company to WWII German Miniatures if that is all they are ever going to produce.

Still, some useful sets in this list. - the leIG18 is probably a re-boxing of the Peagasus leIG18 with Caesar figures (the gun sprue in that kit is from Caesar). Support weapon crews are always good, especially for the Zvezda AoT sets which always come with too few figures.

Disappointed that they aren't producing anything different from WW2 and Germans. I'll wait and see the PSR ratings before buying the possibly useful ones as some have been quite clumsy sculpts and the multi-part ones difficult to make a sensible looking figure.

I was hoping their War of the Roses and 15th century sets would release soon.

The figures handling shells in the German Artillery/Howitzer Crew set look really odd, I don't know if these are multi-part figures but they definitely have that same awkward appearance.



A nice surprise is the AA crew set includes a bicycle rider, these are rare in 1/72 and useful as infantry division reconnaissance troopers.

I said with respect but... Please STOP to other WW2 german soldiers!!!!
I have too much!!!! I think there are other periods of interest..
But this is only my opinion. For sure.. I'll not buy them.

The new ww2 germans are on psr, you may have a look yourselves. Actually they look quite nice. The flak and houwitzer crews are quite usefull to me.

Only germans aren't good
