A company called intoys made 1:18th ww2 figs a few years back and I bought two of the germans from kbtoys. Unfortunately they were kinda pricey and they were more like PTE figures. I wanted more of them but KB only carried them for a little while. :( But the two that I got are still decent figs but only if you take into consideration the bulky heads and brightly colored uniforms. I've tried to find pics of these online but it seems noone knows they exist. Btw, the head fell off one of them and the other figures torso came unglued,lol. I fixed em though. :) [/i]

I was not really thrilled with them and have since sold them. Here is a pic of the ones I had. There were 4 different kinds of the German figures.

I think you have been out in the hot, Florida sun too long... :?
That's a Secret German popcorn popper they are guarding.
If Hitler had applied the right marketing concepts, the Nazis would have flooded the American market with these and WON WWII!!!!

Did you see the History Channel video on this?

Yes I heard they even developed special armored vehicles for the poppers based on the PZ IV. :shock:

Man I've gotta start paying more attention when listening to the TV. I always thought the Panzer Popper was called the P-47.

Maybe you confused it with jalapeno poppers. :wink:
