CC, Brigade Games are the best range in covering WW1,Interwar to early WW2. Hopefully we will see some new additions to the German sailors very soon from Brigade. God Bless Helen |
| Cacique Caribe | 30 Jul 2006 10:53 p.m. PST |
Thanks Helen. I am surprised no one has made them yet. CC |

Brigade have this set for sale:- picture
They were for the Polar Wars range so are pretty well wrapped up and are wearing the U-boat leathers.
I've been asked to do some more and also some Merchant Seamen for Brigade so you should have a fair choice of figures soon.
If you join the Brigade yahoo group you'll get to see the greens of the new figures as soon as they are ready. |

Richard — Don't forget to finish the 1/48th scale Soviet Command pack for North Star first. I need them! |
| For Sale | 31 Jul 2006 5:47 a.m. PST |
They have to fit around the commissions ;-) Just done a new batch of 1/48th late war Germans though. |

Richard – I don't suppose that there's any chance that your next U-Boat captain could have his double-breasted jacket open, a No2 cut, jug ears, no headgear and something that can be cut down into a sonic screwdriver in his hand? No? |

My knowledge of U boat crew uniform is limited to one pic in the venerable Kannik uniforms book I've owned since 1970. Black leather, huh? All black leather? What about the trousers? The wooly hats? Anyone know? They are on my painting table waiting for the word —- |

Black or grey leather
Some examples for you:-
link Steve – It a depends what Brigade asks me to do next, who knows someone might even ask for an ex "Virginian" star in a pullover and seaboots.
Kick up a fuss on the Brigade yahoo group and see what happens ;-) |

There are no U-Boat crew other than the Brigade Games are there? |
| Cacique Caribe | 31 Jul 2006 9:17 a.m. PST |
I was hoping someone had made crew for use in tropical areas. I guess I will wait until they are made by someone. CC |

Gamer – Afghanistan is several tribes bunched together. The tribal system has kept Central Asia remarkable stable for centuries (please feel to shoot down that theory – but its hardly been a flashpoint of world affairs since Genghis). |

Coming Soon: U-Boats in Afghanistan! Bless the bug for that touch of surrealism. |

Keep buying the figures we come up with and I'll keep having more made. I think you'll like what we have in the pipeline. Richard has a long list that he working on. They are on the list but there are some items before them first though. I could be convinced to add photos of the dollies in my yahoo group if you all really want to see them. If you decide to join, please tell me your name and where you are from. I like to know who is in the group. link Lon

"Keep buying the figures we come up with and I'll keep having more made." Will do. Actually, I just ordered one each of the seven alien variants in your Alien Invasion range. For my future Lost World gaming, I will have to wait for the non-polar U-boat crew to come out. Thanks. CC |

Looking for a U-boat crew myself for a 'Dads Army' type scenario – "They don't like it up um" – and came across Ebob's POW characters/penguins/stooges link
which could easily be used for Germans though I'm guessing you need yours armed? |
| Cacique Caribe | 23 Apr 2007 6:28 a.m. PST |
Oooops!!! I looked at the movie links again and, it seems, I should have been looking for WWI (1916) U-Boat crews and officers instead! :) So, I guess that the search for WWI U-Boat sailors and officers goes on . . . TMP link CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 23 Apr 2007 8:38 a.m. PST |
Wow!!! I guess I had not checked the Brigade Games' site in quite some time . . . Winter attire:
link
link Tropical attire:
link
link
link Those Germans will work well with a sprinkling of these Merchant Marines (to act as the recovered crew in this scenario):
link
link I guess I will be placing my order very, very soon!!! QUESTION: Would these work as additional crew for a WWI U-Boat? Or are they not suitable for submarine service?

Does anyone in the UK stock Brigade Games? Just thinking that the Merchant Crew could be converted to a passable 9th Doctor. |
| Cacique Caribe | 02 May 2007 1:42 p.m. PST |
Norrins, This is what shows up about them on the TMP Manufacturer Directory: TMP link And this is what Brigade has on their site: link Hope this helps. CC |

NorthStar does not currently carry the Ends of the Earth range. We offere reasonable shipping rates to overseas locations (we ship overseas pretty much every day). The webstore will typically overcalculate the shipping for orders over $25, which we adjust when we ship the order. |
| Cacique Caribe | 04 May 2007 10:48 a.m. PST |
Thanks for clearing that up! CC |

I have just added these four packs (for now) to my shopping list for next month: link

link After that, I'll be ready for Caprona/Caspak!!!

To welcome the U-boat crew on the icy parts of Caprona . . . Here are some Copplestone cavemen I have started to dress for glacial weather: link
TMP link Please let me know what you think. Thanks. Dan
