Re: FOV quad. 50 gun truck!!!

A little exciting and a little disappointing.
I mean if their going to play the "switch it up" game,
at least do it with MUCH NEEDED TURRETS!

Re: TWO NEW SETS of 1:32 GERMAN INF.

Would you be kind enough to give a brief description of the uniforms of each pose.
I can't seem to find any decent photos. Some figures seem to be wearing smocks, am I correct?

I would LOVE a RE-ISSUE and they should. I missed this one first time around, so I had to resort to a 1:32 model kit. PAIN in the ASS!!!

They did tonnes of 1/72 MAUS's, if only they would do the same for their 1/35 MAUS. Even the 1:32 guys would cross over for that monster!

Re: Home 3D Printer Project: 1/32 V-1

Congratulations, you beat me to it! I have been meeting with people in this industry for a few months now.
A good experiment would be, seeing if you can successfully up-scale a 1\35 tank or turret to 1\32 or a cool 1\72 figure to 1\32. The possibilities could be cataclysmic!!!

Re: new FOV hits the streets

My heart jumped, when I saw the "M-10", I thought it was in 1:32! Did you hear THAT, F.O.V.!!!!!!!
Everything they make in 1:72, they should blow up to 1:32.

The T-34 is a lame re-paint and the PURSHING is basically the same as the others. My own repaints are 10 times better! BAD on YOU, F.O.V.!

They ARE impressive and FUN to play with! I own all 3 of the aircraft that you have mentioned above and I will say that the JU-88 is 4 inches wider than the BF-110 and much thicker and the HE-111 dwarfs the JU-88! I say, go for these kits if you can afford them. Then pull out your 7 ft. folding tabl...

SUPER LAME.
At least INCLUDE some NEW figures!
Some NEW POSES of Waffen SS or Winter Camo tank riders, might be enouph to make me jump for those LAME-ASS re-paints. The Jagd. Tiger paint scheme, looks laughable.

Re: CTS German Medical Team

It's NOT about shooting poses. It's about using your 8 cavity mold wisely. If they make a weak decision, based on how they approach their subject and the set does not sell well, it can endanger the likelihood of another WWII set. Then we'll really be sorry. Technically, you can make 2 really good me...
