Small Scale Military Headquarters

No room or money for big planes, but I am a sucker for 1:18 figures and accessories. I'll be getting these.

Hate to burst anyone's bubbles about this line but I saw these today at Target and they are not good. Sorry no pics, I didn't know about this topic. I had no idea they were made by Unimax. They look like dollar store knockoffs. They are worse than Corps! figures. I saw single figures for $1.99 and t...

Same here. I need some vehicles so I have somewhere to put the figures. Otherwise, its bunch of soldiers standing on a shelf.

I wonder if they will get the Temple of Doom wave. I have to think there are plenty of cases of it out there that nver made it to retail.

The cool thing about the fountain set is you can take it apart and use each piece for something completely different. Try using some IJ Russian Commander with a different head and add some fur hats! On somewhat serious note- has anyone tried to make the russian greatcoats and fur hats for their IJ ...

I suspect its 21C thats in trouble, most of the blowout prices have been on their items, and now the 88 is getting dumped. Clearance prices on old merchandise is clearing inventory space, clearnance prices on brand new items is a last ditch cash grab effort to stay afloat.

* USPS is not the only option there. What's wrong w/ FedEx in that respect ? ... There's always a cheaper option to choose from. :? * Depending on the item , you still have options though , regardless. ... I bought the new Panther via FedEx because it was the cheapest option ,.. still under $50.00 ...

They've got a few SS sets back in stock http://www.monkeydepot.com/21st_Century_Toys_1_18_SS_Guard_Figure_Set_p/usx0125.htm Wait, so they were ten and now they're thirty?? Bastards! They were 9.95, then more went up at 19.95, then some more at 24.95, now 27.95. I missed out on the 9.95 price but wh...

So I got 2 of these guys, and does anyone have any advice how to put their jump gear on them? I've got the gist of how it should go on, but man it's gonna be a tight fit, if it's a fit at all. :( I like the concept, the execution leaves something to be desired though. BBI's thinking in a good way t...

Thnaks for the heads up. I found these today at TRU.

Found the new BBI Weapons packs yesterday and bought the one with the cart. The plastic looks very cheap in the set. And the paint apps are very lacking compared to previous releases. The ammo boxes have a black wash but the cheap green plastic still shows thru, and the grenades, shovel, and shells ...

Its a great looking item, but I cannot justify the high price tag. If by some miracle it makes it into a B&M store, I will grab it.

i don't understand how hasbro can be claiming low sales for the IJ line and yet tons of people can't find the figures they want. In canada we still haven't seen anything passed the first series Raiders and a handful of crystal skull figures. No russians to be seen. And nothing since the first wave ...

You mean another new series, or the one that came out a few months ago?

The one on eBay looks the same as one I have - just painted in a more military scheme. I think I got it at Walmart for 10 or 15 bucks.

are the figs head swapable? i was think head swapping those Cairo figs, so that i could build a small Al-Qaeda group for my GI Joes. Yes and no. The neck balls are different sizes, so some work may be needed to put the desired head on the desired body. Why they couldn't make it a universal size (li...

Or bad news... delays can lead to cancellations. Its happened many times with 21C.

As usual, all the new stuff showing up in that central portion of the US :wink: I'm hoping the wait in the west won't be too long this time around. I got excited the other day upon encountering several boxes labeled "Hasbro Action Figures" at a local Wal Mart, but it turned out they were all Ironma...

Hey Holensock, I have lots of PTE figures. PM me if your interested.

Thats definitely not 1:18.

Had a great deal with Jesse James. He hooked me up with the WWII figure 2 packs.

Lance Quazar wrote:^Forgive my ignorance, but what line is that figure from and what is its name?

The head is from Dragon's Action18 line, the body is made of 21st Century parts from a couple different figures.

Likewise Grunt1. Fast payment and good communication.

Was in NE PA over the weekend and found one of the new DAK guys - Moldenhauer. As others have said, looks like he ships in a solid case.

Big thanks to all who expressed interest. The stuff went faster than I expected. Hope everyone likes their stuff.
