Our Reinforcements scheme (where you can buy our models individually) has gone down an absolute storm with you all so we’re extending it to our Bolt Action British Airborne range! Few divisions in the British Army have earned such a valorous reputation so quickly as the Parachute Division. Known as the Red Devils by the…
Dropping from the skies are our Bolt Action Fallschirmjager! These German airborne troops are true elites – respected and feared by all who faced them. As with our other Bolt Action boxed sets this one offers great value for money. The world’s first paratroopers to be used in large numbers, the German Fallschirmjager were at…
Our Red Devils boxed set has gone down an absolute storm and so this new release is very timely indeed – Airborne Jeeps for your British Airborne. To allow the Jeeps to fit into British Horsa glider the Willys Jeep was modified in several ways. As ever this rugged little vehicle was up to the…
To complement the release of the British Airborne Jeeps here’s a showcase on our Tetrarch light tank as painted by Neil at Troop of Shewe. This lovely little kit comes with all three barrel types used during the war: 2 pounder, 3″ howitzer and a small number even had the 2 pounder upgraded by the…
You’ve seen plenty of his work over the past few months but we’ve saved Neil at Troop of Shewe’s King Tiger paint jobs for the New Year! The biggest landbound vehicle in the Bolt Action range (the impressive Bronekater patrol boat is even bigger!) the King Tiger was also known as ‘Royal Tiger’ by British…
We’ve been revamping and updating our Fallschirmjager range and have a few new models in the pipeline. We’ve already shown you the models armed with MP40s and the 81mm mortar team but you’ve not seen this beast yet: This model was painted by our good mate Big Gazza. As you can see from the photos…
Following on from our release of the Kubelwagen last week we have another German light vehicle – the Schwimmwagen! The Schwimmwagen four-wheel drive amphibious vehicle was used primarily by Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS units as a replacement for the motorcycle and sidecar combination in recce units. The most mass-produced amphibious vehicle in history, the Schwimmwagen offered…
We know all full-blooded Allied Commanders are never satisfied with just stock vehicles in their forces. Therefore you can now add a hedgerow cutter to your Allied armour. An ingenious attachment that allowed Allied tanks to cut through the bocage hedgerows in France, the Cullin Prong was widely used on Shermans and Cromwells. The Cullin…
As this is being written, it’s quite a week for Bolt Action Miniatures releases so we figure we’ll go the whole hog and look at some more great paintjobs by that nice chap Neil at Troop of Shewe. First off we have a GMC CCKW Deuce-and-a-Half truck. The model comes in two variants – with…
Widely used across the German Armed forces in all theatres of operations, the Volkswagen Kubelwagen is as iconic a vehicle for the Germans as the Willys Jeep was for the Americans. As such we simply had to add it to our Bolt Action WWII German range. The Bolt Action Kubelwagen is a beautiful little rein…
