Finally: Is there any chance you guys could be less awesome?

I vote in favour of HBG maintaining and expanding their awesomeness rather than diminishing it.

@Yavid:

I have a couple questions for you guys at HBG feel free to ignore any questions if you like I’m just curious about things.

First: Is there going to be a 2nd Russian set?

Second: Is there going to be a 2nd UK set? If so will the Gloster Meteor be part of said set?

Third: What set is coming after the first UK set?

Fourth: Are there any plans for a Lend Lease set? Various American and UK units other Allied powers colors. French shermans and P-39 aircobras come to mind here

Finally: Is there any chance you guys could be less awesome?

While I imagine if/when HBG makes a UK Expansion Set, it will include the Gloster Meteor, if you get the Amerika game, it has Gloster Meteors for the Allied jet fighter. Although it will be green because the Allied forces in that game are basically representing US forces with some British aid.
If they came out with the US Supplement set in Maroon (Russian dark Brown) then that could be like Lend Lease equipment. I’m not sure about P-51s or B-25s, and I’m pretty sure we never gave Russia any Nevada battleships or Casablanca carriers, but I know the Soviets got some P-40s and Stuart tanks from us. Probably some trucks and M-7s too.
Personally, I’m still itching to see the next Axis Minors set with the Panzer IV, Stuka and Pocket Battleships.

I was thinking for Lend Lease set having Shermans, B-25s, P-39s, Valentines, M3 Lees, P40s, PBY Catalinas, US Trucks stuff like that.

Yeah, I just put those up the other day. You guys are good!

[John Brown]

Variable will the brown Russian sets be in stock next week or is there a delay?

I also need the maroon color as well. I need 10 of the brown and 3 of the maroon.

Also are the basic Japanese sets close to being ready?

I ordered 19 sets in all 4 colors. I cannot wait for these to come out. I think I’m more excited for the British and French sets. They look awesome.

Keep up the good work! :-D

Don’t mean to steal your thunder V. But good work again.  :-)

I just happened to check that morning and was pleasantly surprised.

@John:

There was a delay on brown. Should be in end of the month.

I also need the maroon color as well. I need 10 of the brown and 3 of the maroon.

Same issue occurred with the maroon. The factory had to rerun both colors on their error.

Also are the basic Japanese sets close to being ready?

BASIC Sets? No. Not developed yet. The EXPANSION SETS should be right after the Russians. Moulds are done.

I ordered 19 sets in all 4 colors. I cannot wait for these to come out. I think I’m more excited for the British and French sets. They look awesome.

I’m dying to see that Brit set made as well! Needed for so long…

Keep up the good work! :-D

Guys,

––HBG’s ‘Island Warfare’ set was at the top of my list of favorite sets to produce. Obviously everyone else felt the same making it the ‘first out’ as far as expansion sets. HOORAH!
––Axis & Allies is is now ‘evolving’ in a most satisfactory way with HBG’s introduction of Global Warfare-1939 and now these Awesome Expansion Sets!

So for the Japanese Expansion sets, are we talking early April for those?
