New Playset Range: World War II ‘A Bridge Too Far’

With the coming of Fall, we traditionally introduce the year’s new playsets, and 2020 is no exception. First up is a World War II project which has been gestating for many moons: Operation Market Garden “A Bridge Too Far.” We have been unable to create this set before because of a shortage of proper bridges, low stocks on boats for the river crossing and a lack of British Paratroops. But we found a great girder bridge, laid in good stocks of boats and recently uncovered a full carton of the long-discontinued Airfix British Paratroops.

 

These playsets were a challenge to create, and a lot of fun to set up. Click through on the pictures and you’ll find the full playset descriptions, plus many close-up photos. This year we’ve also created videos of each playset photo shoot, with narration describing the contents.
