The first new releases of 2024!

5th Jan 2024

Welcome to the first post of 2024.   Let’s start the New Year as we would like to continue it, with another set of new releases.   Inevitably, these are 20th Century models, but don’t despair of you prefer earlier periods – we will have bits and pieces for you in the coming weeks and months.

This week we are continuing our policy of adding the bits and pieces needed to complete the process of rounding out our WW2 offerings.  The US forces get a couple of Self Propelled Field Howitzers

and a Stuart Recce.

The British are represented by an M3 Grant CDL – the CDL in the title stood for ‘Canal Defence Light’.  In fact, it had nothing to do with defending canals.  The powerful searchlight mounted on the vehicle was designed to provide light during night attacks and to dazzle and confuse any enemy stupid enough to stare into the light itself.

You can find more details here.

That’s all for this week, but lots more to come in the next 12 months!
