see already one more person suddenly excited for it. P-47s would be awesome but I’m wanting the B-24s and the night fighters more.
Yavid,

––YES, I remember discussing it with Doug from HBG a few years ago.
----I also remember from a couple of years ago FMG posted their B-24 Heavy Bomber sculpt. It was stunning. :-o
––I am VERY EXCITED that we’ve finally progressed from the “I dream of” stage of a few years ago, to the “soon to be produced” stage. In these HBG Expansion Sets we should be getting a vertual plethora of NEW UNITS that will not only be cool, but introduce more NEW UNIT TYPES, too. I mean, Doug has already mentioned PBYs, DE-Escort Destroyers, and a whole spectrum of amphibious ships.
Wow! Bring 'em on!

now if I could get a KV-1 in the conversation we’ll be in business
Yavid,
––Here’s the pic of FMG’s B-24 Liberator sculpt. I also have pics of several units that they posted about 2 1/2 years ago if you missed them.

i saw them unfortunately FMG says there molds got stolen so they don’t have them going anymore :(. I got there Italian set and they were pretty good. The subs could have been better but other than that I have no complaints.
It’s really too bad about FMG. I saw some of thier American stuff and it would’ve been really cool.

You know, that’s something I don’t quite get. I can understand the thieves making off with FMG’s money, but why steal the molds? I know the molds were expensive to make, but what good would they do for a bunch of unscrupulous businessmen?
It makes me wonder if we might see FMG German and Italian pieces popping up from somewhere else in the future.

that’s the part i’m not getting either but it’s the company line
“Coach”,
––As far as the Island Warfare set in your Global Warfare-1939 series sets goes,….Do you have plans for making,…or could you PLEASE include an APD Attack Transport? These were the WW1 era 4-piper Destroyers that were rebuilt into Attack Transports for the Marine Raiders and other units. The Japanese also had simular Attack Transports and both were seen starting in the Guadalcanal campaign.
––My Marine Raiders are anxiously awaiting their rides into battle.
––I’m including a drawing & some pics, below.

They do have them already. If you’re talking about the Russian heavy tank. They come in four colors. I have a ton of them.
No, that’s a KV-2.
But it’s pretty much the same thing, with exception to the turret and gun.
