I haven't taken a detailed look yet, but the new releases are posted and most have photos. The USMC infantry appears to have Garand, Thompson SMG, 1903 Sniper rifle (weapons pack), Plenty of BAR's and .30cal air-cooled Browning (weapons pack) - among other figures.
My interest is primarily 1/2400 and the CL Katori and the Hog Islander Type A's have photos up (I will wait for Donald to assess them).
Thanks GHQ!

I don't have much in the way of comments. The photos of Hog Islander type A and Katori indicate that they are pretty much as expected - high quality models of the ships. The only thing I noticed is that the Hog Islanders apparently have guns mounted at the bow and stern - not unusual for civilian merchant ships during WWII. If you want a pre-war ship it should be easy to remove the guns.

I'm glad GHQ chose to model the early Tupolev SB (without dorsal turret). The turreted models were built beginning in 1940 (when production was at high speed), but I think majority of the over 6000 built didn't have the turret.
I once joked with a friend (& US marine veteran) that GHQ wouldn't make individual US marines 'cuz they didn't have steel casting equipment. I'm glad they are making US marine individual figures (even if in pewter
).
Thanks GHQ!
Happy New Year
