Oh, I see what you are looking at.  I think it's just bad lighting in the photo.  I got some of the olive drab Marines and they are definitely olive, a little darker/duller than OOB US pieces.

Any chance we could get some better pictures that show the real color difference?

I just want to be able to recover the money spent, and lessons learned on my part.


Do you only advertise here on A&A.org ?

Maybe if you go heavy in the other places too, like Boardgamegeek, Larrys game design, tripple AAA, the official AH boards, Flames of Europe, AA World Club, The Struggle etc etc you will reach more customers. If you sell more pieces worldwide it will benefit all of us, even if you sell to people that is not A&A.org members.

I am gonna buy everything you make for sure, will place a new order next week. My first order got messed up because my VISA was short of cash, in case you wonder. I'll be back.

Here are a couple that I think have good lighting.  First a few HBG Olive Drab Marines next to OOB US pieces.  Second with some of the dark green Marines from HBG.

I don't want to sound like I am complaining but since FMG is only putting 6 tactical fighters in his set it would be great HBG if would make some sets with tactical bombers. Just a request. Thanks

I second that. (For as many nations as possible please.) Actually I dont understand why HBG is making so many tank type units and only neglecting the TAC in the axis minor set for example. Hopefully HBGs German set will rectify this.

Where are you wanting these?

Yes. And I am eagerly awaiting that set. It also has an Air Transport and Escort Carrier. Both will be welcome additions to the game. Plus it has the P-51 MUSTANG!

Actually I love everything about the USA I set. You did a great job picking iconic and different looking sculpts, along with picking a good mix of unit types.

BTW did u drop OOB Brown from your Axis minors set? Your webpage doesnt list it as an option to buy. (I realise the photo is brown but since those are likely preproduction pictures I dont place alot of weight in the color of the sculpts.)

Also any word yet on a preorder date for these units.

Coach I know you sell units individually and I bet the Tacs are going to be your best seller for that reason. I know I will be ordering extras from you to supplement my FMG pieces.
