Thomas Gunn Miniatures is shipping the Berlin 1938 Paratrooper marching sets this week. Also, they will be shipping the 7.5cm Infantry Gun & Crew. All the pre-orders will be going out early next week.
Next up from Thomas Gunn Miniatures is a Luftwaffe collection. The first figures will include Luft001 FW190 which will retail for $155. The airplane has now gone to production and should be ready at the end of July. There will be 2 versions available as follows:
Luft001A - European Theatre version as flown by Armin Faber in 1942. Faber was the unlucky German pilot who made the mistake of landing his FW190-A3 at Pembrey airfield in Wales in June 1942. The capture of the aircraft provided a gold mine of information for the British forces who had even been contemplating a Commando raid into France to try and bring back one of these aeroplanes. Fortunately Faber saved the British the trouble and the rest as we say is

Luft001B is a tropical version 'White 6' of our FW190 as she would have appeared in the Mediterranean theatre of operations. Limited to 100 sets worldwide this version is also bound to be very popular with collectors.
At the same time as the release of the above Thomas Gunn will be releasing 3 Luftwaffe figures (Luft002, Luft003 and Luft004) in 2 versions suitable to compliment both versions of their new aircraft.
Last but not release Thomas Gunn will also release a field workshop set (ACC Pack001) which will comprise a table (picture attached) a mobile generator, acetylene tanks and trailer plus an oil drum with pump. Designed to go with an army workshop or airfield maintenance set this set will bring any diorama to life be it Allied or Axis.
