Greetings everyone, it is almost summer time and soon W. Britain will be releasing new figures. Right now I am only collecting figures from the “Wrath of the Northmen” line of figures. I wish I could add some of the other lines to my collection, but due my budget I can only stick to one at this time. Anyway, I would like to share some information that I have gathered through different sources about the new figures that will be released soon. I can’t wait to add these figures to my collection and to see what else is going to come in the range down the line. Their figures keep getting better with each new batch released. So far the Saxons are my favorite, but it these new Vikings are making it harder to choose. W. Britain Wrath of the Northmen
50073C – Wrath of the Northmen – Acwellen, Saxon Warlord. 2017 W. Britain Collectors Club Figure. This figure is available now, if your a club member.
62123 – “Recene” Saxon Archer No.1 Arrow Nocked, 62128 – “Osfirth” Saxon Archer No.2 Arrow Loosed, and 62129 – “Scotend” Saxon Archor No.3 Arrow Loosed, 62130 – “Kenway” Saxon Advancing with Sword. These figures should be available over the next few months.
62126 – “Brimir” Viking Attacker – Academy Games Exclusive and 62127 – “Werian” Saxon Defender – Academy Games Exclusive. You can buy these figures when you pre-order 878 Vikings – Invasions of England from Academy Games.
These two figures are so nice, that I ordered the 878 Vikings board game just to get them.
This picture of a Viking holding the Raven Banner just came out today on their facebook page, it is supposed to be available in the summer too.
Great review Mike. They are lovely figures. I love the archers. The Viking banner is also great. I think I will try a Playmobil one. The exclusive set is a great add on. The Saxon warrior looks great. I love all the details… the helmet, the cross, the shield. If they will make some scenics, that will be great. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Regards.
Thanks Jose, I am glad W. Britain is spending time on this line. It is becoming one on my favorite collections. The Saxon shield wall is one of the best things a company could make for this era. It shows that they have put a lot of thought on what they are doing and not just making some random figures swinging swords & such. If they come out with some new cottages, villagers or something better, I will make this the focus on my collection. I should have a few figures finished this weekend. I will take a few pictures then with an update.
