Small Scale Military Headquarters

Is my math right?

(95 mm)*(1 m/1000 mm)*(1 ft/.3048 m)*(12 in/1 ft) = 3.74 inches?

I thought these guys weren't supposed to be 1:18 scale? That is a sweet price, if I weren't strapped for cash right now I'd probably order a set just to see what they're like

Wow, thats pretty cool! Lots of customizing possibilities here. I hope the other figure lines eventually get this kind of treatment!

Nice pics! Are those photos you used for the background?

I think the price on these will drop once other retailers pick these up, and hopefully the quality will pick up as TB continues to work at this scale.

Think it might be the second one. I noticed they recently raised the price on the mid-size Star Wars vehicles from $19.99 to $22.99. I hate it when they pull crap like that.

They started appearing recently, within the last month or two, I think. The US figures are the same, but the German soldiers have dark grey helmets instead of the original white, and the tankers now come in two different camo schemes; one is a re-release of the Panzer IV version, and the other comes...

Actually, I'm in school right now so they were found in West Lafayette, IN, not Chicago. They had a lot of the Marines left but only one other set of the Sahara figs, but I haven't been back there in almost a week.

Oh neat, I had planned to pass on the RC version, but not if I see this one. So far only the desert schemes have shown up around here.

Found the Sahara and series 3 Marines today. I actually think the Al Giordano head is a pretty accurate sculpt, but yeah, Dirk is way off.

Marines look great but I think 21st can put these to rest now, 3 sets is enough.

Saw this at toysnswords the other day:

Green Zero

Wonder if it'll be out before the end of the year?

BBTS has it up as well. Have we gotten any word whether TRU will have these?

I was so glad to see that these got picked up by the major retailers; the first two assortments were a "market test" exclusive to TRU, but now they should be showing up everywhere. I think I'm most stoked about Namor...assuming he's in his classic green swim trunks we'll be able to have some cool In...

The Pilots were re-released along with the BotB and Patton figs earlier in the year. BTW did you say Mustangs? :shock: I found the Bubbletop P-47s yesterday, first time I've seen new aircraft at this store in almost 2 years. They had 2 each of the Eagleston and Eileen schemes. Finally something to k...

Hmm, my Zero also had one set of the tanks at the rear of the cockpit broken off when it arrived, but I just superglued it, wasn't that a big a deal for me. Also one of my Mustangs had some fairly noticable paint chipped off of the propeller tips, but again its something I can probably paint over my...

Man, I've been hoping bbi would tackle the F-14 since I first laid eyes on the F-18. I don't care that it's a much larger plane and more intricately put together, I just wanna see it happen :P The one thing that gives me hope is that after the A-10 (assuming it happens), the F-22 is probably the nex...

On page 4 of the catalog, theres a pic of the Humvee 998 Hard Top/Soft Top; looks like 21st's version of the Super Humvee. Pretty neat.

I'm also glad to see they've still got the Platoon line in there, as well as A Bridge Too far

Wow, the BBD is the only one of the original Mustangs I don't own. Well, no need to keep watching it on ebay now :) Its weird but this is the second time something like this has happened, Pappy's Corsair was one of the two that I didn't have when the Aviation Legends version was announced, and now t...

Well, this exclusive might pave the way for XD's return. So if anyone needs another reason to buy it, good sales will surely help make that happen

BTW for anyone who needs it, the SKN # is 279274

I had no idea the figures would be available seperately, I thought they were supposed to come with the vehicles. I wonder if they still will, or maybe those'll be different?

Wow! Just saw the pics, they look amazing! I really hope these make it out before year's end, the anticipation is grueling Definitely going to have to get one of each of these, and my wallet is already protesting

Yep, found them at TRU today as well. They're only $39.99

It's so hard to choose between 21st and bbi right now. bbi has traditionally had better articulation but with the Japanese figs I think 21st has caught up to them. However bbi still is tops in accessories, just look at the WWII paras and infantry. 21st has done a broader range of figures, as well as...

Well, this is the flip-side of the internet; yes, we have more access to news and information on our favorite hobbies than ever before, but it also makes us impatient reading about all these sightings when we can't find anything ourselves. Before I ever found forums like this I would know next to no...

Those are the same names that the modern weapon sets had, though. Why they would be listed on WWII cards, I dunno. Could be new ones...

The thing you have to understand, though, is that the action figure aisles are a low priority for TRU. I used to work in the "Boys" department, and I can tell you from first-hand experience that at the management level, all they are interested in is R-Zone, bikes, and baby supplies. These are the hi...

I kept the the airplane boxes for a long time purely for storage reasons until I have a place to hang them, but eventually my collection just too grew too big and I had to toss them. I found some nice plastic storage bins that I keep them in now; they're small enough to fit under my bed and I can ge...
