The mold issues sound interesting, almost like bootlegs... That's strange.

Here are some pics. I cleaned up some of the flashing, on the gear and some of the joint pegs, so they fit together a little better than they did right out of the box.

I can't peg this camo pattern

The Oakleaf on this guy trouser, looks terrible.
Image

This is the only sudo accurate camo, but the gear, does, not fit, due to very shallow peg holes.
Image

I do like how the painted the gear.

These are a real mystery. Thanks for the review Fritz. Did the packaging seem legit??

I had him take them out of the package, to save on S&H. On the website, they looked like standard 21st packageing.

very strange.....they may be some sort of half a$$ed bootleg, maybe from figures that weren't quite finished and ready for production, before 21c's demise? The packaging may have been ready to go but never used and may be a sort of bootleg as well. Without final painting instructions from 21c, they may have just winged it. Certainly interesting, from a collector point of view.

I'd have to agree with you Fritz. Definitely the Russo fig.

I'm not sure thats the russian figure... It is one of the redone paratroopers that came in the second wave of the D-Day line (with the first Afrika Korps figures). The figure had the satchel, thompson, and all.

Russo was the figures name. He was an 82nd airborne fig. :?

Hi,
the red marked and flash lighted guy is named Capt.Wm W. Russo.
The guy left of him sitting behind the gun is completely new for me. I´ve never seen this one :?:

You mean Pvt. Dwight "Farmboy" Wilson? Him and Pvt. Kurt Schroder and Cpl. Chuck "Bullseye" Betz were the last batch of 21CT figures released back in Spring 2009 showing up at Wal-Mart stores.
