'Armor In The Ardennes’
As every collector of our ‘Battle of The Bulge’ series knows, the Nazi offensive into Belgium and Luxemburg in December 1944 was Hitler’s last-ditch gamble to take the Allies by surprise. Only the willingness of some American units to stand and die prevented a major German breakthrough that would have prolonged the war.
Because of this, the ‘Battle of The Bulge’ ranks as the single, largest battle ever fought by the United States Army. More men, vehicles, supplies, and equipment went into this mighty effort than any other battle in American history.
It was bigger than ‘Gettysburg', greater than the ‘Normandy’ Landings, and even larger than the more recent ‘Gulf War’!
No less than 31 American divisions--fully a third of the entire U.S. Army in WWII--saw action in this battle over 39 days from December 16, 1944 until January 25, 1945.
The human cost for the American forces were over 19,000 killed in action, with many more wounded and thousands taken prisoner. It’s a momentous battle that deserves to be remembered and immortalized in miniature, which King & Country has been proud and honoured to do for many years.
Over these same years, K&C has released a wealth of great fighting vehicles… artillery… and soldiers (both German and American) fighting across the blood-stained snow of the Ardennes in that cruel winter of 1944/45. Here are our two latest ‘recruits’ in the shape of a pair of war-weary M4 Shermans doing their darndest to help hold back the advancing Germans.
Just 250 pieces of BBA110(SE) are available.
Due to be released in FEBRUARY 2026.
