Small Scale Military Headquarters

did the camo on the German to the right, come from?

I've been meaning to ask this question forever; because, I have just never seen it elsewhere.

OH MY. The Tiger I has the the zimmerit. The Panther has skirts.
I dunno how I'm going to pay bills this summer.
If they release the KT, or god willing, some of those mystery figures we've been hearing about... I'll go ahead and file chapter 11 tomorrow, haha.

pfft, accidental double post.

I fear we may never find out what these mystery figures were.

Yes, I think we need to know!

Hun, you and Pickel have magic powers. I want to steal them, and use them for my own exploits.

Incredible, as usual, sir.

I like how you have the tunic piece coming out under the smock.

Very innovative. I hadn't thought to try that myself...very good inspiration.

Well done as always.

For someone who runs a hobby store, you'd think they'd know the difference between a corsair and...anything else. There's a freakin picture of it on the box! Somehow 2+2=5!? Yes, but his appearance on his ebay picture doesn't seem too promising for anything approaching an intellectual level, let al...

..Yeah, the last time 21st had a heart attack, it left the 1/6th scale completely, and concentrated on the smaller scale like the 1/18th, because it has very few competitors in this scale (if it had any at all) at the time... Although, 21st C still pops out the occasional 1/6 weapons set. With that...

Hmmmm.....

Yeah, that too.

Didn't 21st kind of recluse a few years ago, right after TRU stopped carrying their stuff?
If I'm not mistaken about this, then that only means that they have the ability to bounce back.

...Still see some Baboon figures too, but I skip them and let 'em rot... You know General, I had the same mindset until about a week ago. I have started buying up the Platoon or generic VN figures Why? Because of their arms. Short sleeved arms, to be specific. I have started painting them and using...

Yeah, that's the point I was trying to make.

I have never understood the elitism from 1/18 or 1/16.

"Siege Heil," indeed... This isn't the first thread started with 1/16 items in it. http://www.warbird-photos.com/gpxd/viewtopic.php?t=15059 Oh look, there's another. *rolls eyes* Anyway, the KT looks nice. It's likely that I'll be picked one up eventually. Oh my goodness, ANOTHER 1/16 thread...man, ...

Zimmerit did come in a pattern like that -- and came in several variations in fact -- but, it wasn't really that, "tile-ish."

If you scroll down, you'll see a black and white thumbnail of Zimmerit patterns.

Personally, I have never been a fan of the FOV figures. I think they all look ridiculous when put up next to BBI, or better yet, 21st Century WWII figures. I have bought them only for the heads, hands, and helmets. I only really collect WWII military figures, so these paratroopers are definately out...

I wanted to use the BBI LAVs for cobra assult vehicles... I did the same thing. I bought the BBI LAV and painted it black, and purchased some of those COBRA insignia stickers and fixed them to the vehicle. I call it a HISS, because in my mind a HISS is just an APC with a 20 mil, hah. However, I als...

Last night I bought four of the newest U.S. figures, (two .30 cal gunners and two sharp shooters), and one of the German assault riflemen. I saw more of these figures before Xmas. That same WM had three pegs stocked with a varied amount of that wave. I didn't have the money at the time, but I did la...

WELL, last I checked, someone who hasn't been on this site for at least 60 years isn't even allowed to view the buy/sale threads without risk of accostment...

...so, I didn't see it.

It's a custom, so, I just figured. I know I've seen auctions listed here before.

Pretty much amazing work, as usual.

I just sold my collection of Takara Predators on Ebay, save one Elder Predator. They are really nice figures, and yeah, somewhat hard to find. Whenever I do find them, they aren't TERRIBLY expensive...maybe $30 a figure. They are really nice, though. The only gripe I've ever had for the Takara figur...

Yeah, mine has an 819 on it as well.

The gear and uniforms is a little more accurate on the XD Germans. The guns suck on both. You should re equip both lines of figures with Dragon weapons, and gear if you can. I think the FOV US troops mix better than the FOV Germans do. Their legs are too long, and their web gear is all farked up. Pe...

I finally found The Last Crusade line at a local Kmart, and they had all the figures minus Vogel and Connery Jones (haha). That's the first time I've ever seen them.

I think Italians are bottom of the barrel compared to Russians and British forces. I think your dreams may never come true.
