Those are very impressive layouts! Just the rows upon rows of German action figure "clones" looks amazing. I hate to think of how long it took to amass all that - and how much it all cost :wink:


BTW, my area had tons of the standard "Bruno Bauer" figures at Wal Mart several years ago. We never got in the US Machine Gunner, German MP-44 gunner, and the Germans with the mismatched uniforms, or the dual packs that 21c was releasing near the end, but we did get a lot of the Bauer figures. In fact, my local Wal Marts discounted them to about $1 apiece, so I got a number of them and still have some carded.
Hah lol I was going to post that

Thanks "Black_Dragon_One for your Feed back


Well in the old times , figures were sold around 3 to 5 $ , the more expensive was the German Paratroopers set ,it were sold around 60$ . Well its cost me some $. I confess , but nothing compare with the headache to deal with some sellers on Ebay , today would be almost impossible to assemble an Army in this size , with prices up 10 To 24 $ for one single figure . its Crazy !!!!!!

Well I started collecting them around 2004 , the market was very good , special for used figures :)

Yes rows are impressive, its impress me too . I JUST COPY from movies , photos and art pictures the lay out .

Those figures never show up in my Toys are us too, I had to look for it ,on Ebay , Fox hole toys and Vlads Toys these sources were my solution ,they help me a lot !


well for some folks who like tanks, and planes ,figures is just a complement . For me Thanks, and planes are just complement for my figures :)

Just checked it out. Great stuff!

Thanks for posting and letting us take a peek.

I'm going to have to count how many figures I have some day. A lot of them came from a couple of large collections I picked up a couple years ago. I'm sure I am near battalion strength in German at least. About a dozen of my U.S. airborne troops still are hanging in the Museum. :wink:

Thank you for the reply. I used to by all the figures from Weylen that he made. I really miss him not being on this forum anymore.

Herr Skorzeny, wonderful pictures and a great collection, I always like looking at them.
I haven't forgotten about your request..........

Image

I've been trying different materials to see which will look good in a picture and look real.
its going to be a large building...... :D

I've started small, the "Normandy Farmhouse" Its insulation board and wood, its sturdy so I think it will work on a larger building.

Image

Here it is with the Pickelhaube King Tiger.

Image

I should have some time to work on it after Christmas.

Great shots with the crashed Spitfire :D Great way to do a crash scene diorama without actually breaking that valuable plane.

Herr Skorzeny, great pictures as always! I noticed the black die-cast staff car, it looks good with all the troops
around it. This would be a nice custom....

Image

Did you get some more Bruno Bauer figures? :shock:

Nice pictures of the Spitfire, glad to see the pilot got out safely. :wink:
