While I would love to see it happen here is why I say no way. Either one could come up with a 2.5 ton truck that would sell damn well! Probably ten fold what an Italian tank coud push. Yet neither has done this. 21st or FOV would probably sell an SU85 or SU76 T34/76(21st) at ten fold what a Chi Ha o...

There was also the US 81mm and two 30 cal and crew pics. In addition on the old site we saw Wermacht early war figures that never turned up? I got a set of russians the other day and found it funny that they were stamped 2005 on the base bottoms? Guess we will just have to wait and see? USMC and Bri...

I would say that TSSD does a pretty good job on researching the stuff they make. Nice people as well. I am almost positive that this piece is true to scale and very accurate. In addition at ten bucks its a great price. Waiting on 21st to make one ? No thanks, how many deuce & half's do you think the...

Re: hedgerow cutter
Has anyone tried making one the way they were made in the field - with hedgehogs? I ask because I know fov released those rubbery hedgehogs which could be snipped with a scissor and fashioned pretty easy I assume. Might not be a bad little project. I took the one off my stuart. It attaches right to...

I dont think it is a priority, at least in the begining. They have always had unit markings, but numbers were not matched as far as I know. However in the 1:18 scale Ltd edition Wittman Tiger has come out etc. Also the new tigers has markings of the 505 HTB ?? So I think it is now going to be this w...

I am going with the no way crowd. Germany would have been burnt to a crisp. Jets, NVE, V2's, Big U-boats and all. The only hope or way out that could have changed things would have been had Japan went after the Soviets in 41. Waited on the pacific? Or at the very least went into Russia at the same t...

I understand what you guys are saying! However as a business case branching out before wraping up things can be risky! It damn near killed 21st! They ventured into too many scales at once and are currently heading there again. This time with their main two scales and product subject well covered. I ...

Could I be the only one dissapointed in Unimax? These figures make no sense to me at all. While I agree that they are well done why in the world wouldnt they have stuck with their bread and butter? They have a big chunk in WWII and Modern and the WWII figs that come in the figure sets are pure crap!...

Its still a business plane and simple! The cold hard facts are all about dollars! 21st is telling the simple truth!

I think the figure idea or lack of is bogus! While I agree the guy checking the compass or watch is lame after the sixteenth time! But I would like to see some new figure sets! Good figures not re released. Also why not scuplt a few new crews? How much could it cost to do three new Panzer crew sculp...

I do not think that a number change and paint scheme would be too difficult, or simply new numbers to get around the limeted edition? My question is that these sound great, so why nothing on the Web Site? 21st has to be making a killing. I hit three wallys and find that they sell out every thing fas...

I dont know about you guys but the Target stores sell for far less then the hobby shops. The action grade Stug sells for $20.00 at my Target while an enthusiast grade goes for about $33 to $35 Sherman are the same deal, usually I have found them at discounts as well, dropping the price to $15 or $17...

1:32 for me! I guess its because its the traditional size of toy soldiers. When I was a kid I grew up on the Marx playsets, Navarone, Iwo, Battle Ground etc. So one day I am at TRU and I see this really cool Tiger Tank! I said to my wife that I would have killed for a tank like this when I was a kid...

I am not sure if you have been able to look at what is out there but I think in 1:32 you can have it all! I agree that figures are an issue due to multiple manufactures, various states of quality, prices etc. Yet poses, seated tank riders etc can all be had. However with the popularity of the scale ...

Of course ! I wholly agree. The quality is the deciding factor, now that being said if that quality can be matched that would win customers, if that quality can be matched at a quarter the cost! Then you have a winner! I may be the minority here but I do care what I spend, its a huge factor in what ...

You need to wash them first and then use a duplco spray primer. This will ensure your paint sticks and does not crack! Its like a spray glue. TSSD has the instructions on their site! The soft plastic lends itself well to modifications of figures, cheek treefrog for examples. Contes GIs are supposed ...
