Hi, I'm just starting to work on VBCW in 10mm.
Civilians would be marvellous.

Most of the vehicles are already available but one wish, pretty please, would be a Vickers MkII medium tank.

While I'm feeling dirty for suggesting another manufacturers work here, railway 2mm scale is about 1/150-ish

103 and 104

Unfortunately resin, but...

Not got any yet so can't comment on them.

I won't get round to the regulars and territorials/yeomanry until much later in the year.

Gramodels stuff is nice (I have a couple of Scammells) but very slow and pretty unreliable.

If you can get them from a show then go for it - but I'm not so sure about mail order.

Bit odd that they don't go to any of the regular UK wargames shows, but travel all the way to the Crisis show in Antwerp!

Hmmm

I think he might do model railway shows mainly

[Leon]

Apologies, been a bit ill past couple of days, so haven't had chance to get them up.  I've got the pics on the camera next to me, so if I can stop coughing up my spleen, I'll get them uploaded today.

Always over-rated, the spleen

Get well.

I'll add my vote for armed civilians and militias. Also for the Vickers medium.

Cheers,

I saw the new masters and I liked what I saw  . If I could put in my oar and further request additional items, my thoughts are:-

Generic 30s bus
Generic 30s Lorry (with and without tilt)
Generic 30s saloon car
Motorcycles and combinations with civilian riders
Civilian crews for Vickers, Lewis, Bren, Degtyaryov, Lanchesters/MP28, Boys AT rifle, etc.
Home Guard in side caps.

Edit
Almost forgot
BEF on bicycles
French on bicycles
Civilians on bicycles

Cheers

One of these would be great

[Squirrel]

  I'll second the tea van, totally VBCW 

Cheers,

I've picked up some nice N gauge 1930's cars and vans from this company.

Aircraft would be nice to see.

Especialy British types that also saw action in the Spanish Civil War and the Finnish Winter War (and possiobly Chaco war) and the "side shows" fo early WW2.

All of which could server in a sealion game as they were relagated to training roles in 1940. Example

the Hawker Hart/Audax/deamon/Hind/etc series of light bombers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawker_Hart

Some nice colour plates here http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww15/o/517/9

Along with eitehr a Hawker Hart or Gloster Gladiator/ Gauntlette.

A "generic-ish" fighter and fighter bomber, each with the option of either a radial or inline engine option would be useful.

At the moment there are either reletively expensive display models (£10+ unbuilt kits) or the Reversico/Tin Soldiwer range from the US (who seem not to have a UK distributor).

I've added all these suggestions to the lists.

Generic 30s bus
Generic 30s Lorry (with and without tilt)

We've got a London bus, and a 1930's truck.  Along with the various WW1 trucks, we're pretty well covered for these.
