On the collector’s email we have a little more information on their World War Two British series.
The 54mm WW2 British sets has hopped onto the production scheduling in June and the first set may be released in July 2021.
The planned range for the British at Far East are as follows;-

Sculpting for the British will be completed in June and we will commence work on the 60mm Biblical Wars.
The 54mm US Marines in the Pacific will be done in parallel.
New Ukrainian Toy Soldier Company Preview
As pointed out by Erwin about the Conte figures, we see that Oliver choose to replace Conte’s Roman Pilums with more suitable ones. Are they ExForce or another replacement fix?
They look like Ex Force Pilums. I noted in a comment before that the Ex Force Pilums fit into the Conte Roman hands and a box of Ex Force Romans contain lots of weapons. The Ex Force Pilums are harder plastic.
Nice paint job on the Romans, looking forward to painting up my set of Conte Romans.
