The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.

We'll be getting them. Have some samples on the way and manufacturer is interested in working with us on it. I was planning on waiting for the samples to commit to an order but you guys seem very pleased with the ones you found on eBay, so it looks like it will be a 'go' for us.Fritzkrieg wrote:I'd like to here some of the on-line retailers chime in on these.

meh , im not sold on them yet. i would like to see a comparison side by side with a bravo team fig. i have a couple unimax figs and i think they rock. i love how much stowage and accesories they come with and they look more detailed than these guys imo. i would like to see more before i commit. it is nice to see new figs in 1 18th though.
Figure Review and Pics
Hey everyone. Pictures not as good as I'd like but give you a good idea of what the figures look like. I don't regret getting them and feel they are an excellent addition to 1/18 modern military line. I don't think anyone who buys these will regret it.
These are pics of the 7 figures currently available from Tieka Toys. Next I do need to put up a comparison shot with FoV and BBi figure.
Consistent theme regarding all the figures:
1. Removable helmets, vests, backpack, knee pads
2. Excellent articulation
3. No loose joints so far
4. Not much in line of accessories; rifle, pack, stand, knee pads. (only 2 come with 1 extra weapon).
5. Weapons appear a tad big but not big a deal.
6. All have stands
7. Facial detail is okay; not up to par with others like FoV or BBi. But, not bad considering this is their first product launch. The sunglasses are molded to face on each figure. The heads are on ball joints so I think head swapping is possiblity.
8. Minor observation; they stand well without falling even when posed; I have not needed the stands.
On to the pics. Some redudant (click thumbnail for closer look);
1. Anti Tank Figure
2. Medic Figure
3. Grenadier Figure
4. Radio Man Figure
5. SAM Figure
6. SAW Figure
7. Squad Leader
I can take more pictures just let me know. For some reason some of the duplicat views (SAM/Medic) did not download but you get an idea.
I still say for a start up company; these are still pretty descent figures. I agree that FoV/BBi figures have good detail. I think in time this company can improve on their product line. I have to give them kudos for detailing on the uniform and gear. Figure articulation is the biggest plus!!

I'm hearing Germans may be the first WW2 figures.
