Hey, Russ, now that we are into 2014 what are the chances of getting an update of future releases? Just ran across a post from, I think, 2012, where you lined out plans for the Napoleonic releases – and mentioned some other pending ranges. Many of those pending releases are in place now. So, any willingness to whet our collective appetites with what else we can expect, save our money for? My personal interest will be in 15/18 mm but I suppose you should toss a bone to the folks who continue to use oversized figures! : ) I'm anticipating the Boxer Rebellion but would also love to see some animal packs released in the Dark Africa range. And I keep hoping – against hope – for WWI German East Africa figures. Now that my oversized projects are done, I have lots more time to pester – pardon – inquire of you what's out on the glorious horizon. |

And if you are able to – could you please give us some idea when the remaining codes in the ACW range would be filled. Thanks |

Like many I suspect, I am waiting/hoping for some more additions to your Colonial range
Bashi bazouks, bazingers, Egyptian gendarmes, Naval Brigade gun crews and British infantry in NWF uniform would all be most welcome to an already excellent range. Thanks Russ and keep up the great work. |

"the ox is slow, but the earth is patient" – nearly three years ago, the Napoleonic releases were advertised. Still, the basic lines are no where near completion; much less the breadth of nationalities planned in the "most comprehensive" line ever. As Rex Harrison's Pope Julius II said to Charlton Heston's Michelangelo on painting the Sistine Chapel: "When will you make an end?" "When I am finished" >sigh< "The ox is slow, but the earth is patient" |

I don't follow the Napoleonic releases, not my period. But I just did a quick check and just the Russians have 24 packs in two time ranges – and looks like that many more packs, or more still, due for that nation alone. Takes a tremendous amount of time and resources to get such a large range into being. Research, design, sculpting, mold making, production, and marketing. Lot of work. Understand being impatient, of course. But it sure looks like that range is growing at a phenomenal rate, especially when you consider the hundreds of packs and thousands of unique sculpts across an astonishing array of periods. I started the thread in the hopes of some good word on items I am interested in – but I also try hard to be patient. Without Blue Moon's releases there are several periods of figures I would not have and others that would not have the variety of figures and attendant scenario options available. So, go ahead, plead your case, as will I. But we all need to be patient. Still want the info, Russ, if you are willing and able to provide it. And hope you don't see this until Monday because you deserve your weekends off – when you aren't at shows. |

WW1 East Africa would be awesome. I would also love the screw guns to be released. |
