Hello again to all you TGM collectors out there. Read on and you'll find a number of items that I'm almost certain will be of interest
First up, a WW2 German artillery piece that Collectors Showcase have also released a couple of versions of recently. I'm sure I won't be the only one eager to get my grubby little mitts on one of these. Imagine how good they'd look displayed as a battery of 3 or 4 pieces side by side!
 |
| SS049 Nebelwerfer: long awaited and here
now in 3 versions: Normandy, Winter and Desert. The Nebelwerfer
was an iconic German artillery piece that saw action on all three fronts.
Nicknamed “Screaming Minnie” by the Allies after its signature noise made by the
rockets once they had left the launcher. Although not the most accurate weapon,
the Nebelwerfer was ideal for saturation bombing especially where targets were
concentrated in an open area |
 |
| SS050 Nebelwerfer Crew: Designed to go with
our Nebelwerfer we have made 100 of each crew version to go with our rocket
launchers. Priced at $31 and available mid November |
 |
| Our set includes one launcher and four spare rockets.
Please note the Desert version will look equally at home on a western front
diorama due to the Wermacht policy of painting all military hardware a dark
yellow/sand colour from 1943 onwards |
 |
We have made 120 of the winter and Normandy versions and 100
of the Desert version.
Priced at $45 and available mid November |
Sticking with the WW2 theme for a moment TGM are releasing two more versions of the supply truck they introduced last month and which sold out very quickly indeed. I bought one of the field grey ones myself to sit alongside my other 1st SS Panzer Division armour and it's very lovely!
The two versions being released this month have both been painted as medical vehicles and would look delightful alongside the medical Kubelwagens already produced
 |
| SS044 Blitz: We have been inundated with
requests for a new Normandy and Desert version of the famous Blitz 3 ton lorry,
well here it is but with a twist! |
 |
| Both versions are decked out with medical red crosses and
a few supplies for the back of the lorry. The Normandy version is in the livery of the
1st Leibstandarte SS Division whilst the Desert version will be
suitable for any DAK or Italian campaign unit |
 |
| Once again we have limited these
to 120 pieces and priced our vehicle at $135 |
Last, but by no means least, here are a few more of Napoleon's finest for all you 'Nappie' collectors out there
NAP021 French
Infantry: Advancing to attack with musket lowered and bayonet
fixed. We have listened to collectors who
requested Napoleonic figures in greatcoats and here they are! Not only that but we have reduced the
overall height ever so slightly in order that they can march alongside K&C’s
and the CS Napoleonic troops. Picture attached for proof in case it is needed!
 |
| Our A version figure is from the Imperial Guard and looks
every bit the inch of Napoleonic splendour. Dressed in blue coat and bearskin,
who would not be frightened with these troops bearing down on them! |
 |
| NAP021 B comes with grey coat plus Shako and is suitable for
any French Line Infantry roll call |
 |
|
NAP021 C comes with a traditional brown coat plus Shako
and once again is suitable for any French line infantry diorama. Each set comes with 2 figures per box and priced at $64 for two figures. Limited to 65 sets of
each version this must be an all time low production number for Thomas Gunn!
|
That's it for this month folks. See you again in December with some more news from TG and, in the meantime, happy hunting!
