Small Scale Military Headquarters

just curious, does anyone know if the weapons are glued in place with these figures?

Probally. Knowing the way Mcf makes thier toys, most of them or more statue than action fig.

Their bigger 6" figs have removable weapons. I would say these smaller versions would too.

Did you see anymore news of when these will be available?

should be out now.....i saw them in my local TRU yesterday.

Are they 1/18th scale?

no, as the topic says they're 3 inch.

As rule of thumb I thought 1/18th was 3 inchs,roughly thinking.
never mind, brain not working this morning.

1/18 is 4 inch

1/24 is 3 inch

It would be cool if they where 1/18 but as we all know Maclaren
will not do that scale.

Yes. He's a bad man.

Question is this just a rumor or has he said that he will not do 1:18 is there a online reference to his dislike of 1:18th ?

I think some one who he use to date like 1:18 scale so MF dislike the scale..

no just kidding

Or maybe his father used to beat him with a Habro Gi Joe when he was a kid.

he has been asked about doing figures in the scale and said it was something McF toys will not pursue. Reasons unknown....but he's a bit of an oddball, so i suspect it does have something to do with when he was a child...

yeah I would like to get a closer look at them, the figures won't have much movement but if the weapons came free and looked ok with 1/18 I might grab a couple if they aren't too expensive.

Saw them yesterday - very small (3 inches may be a stretch) and it did not appear the weapons came free. May be wrong on that last point.

I'm not sure if its a benefit if the weapons are removable. I use several of the McFarlane 6"-scale weapon packs to provide more realistic guns for my 8"-scale GI Joes. They don't look too bad, and they work since decent weapons aren't too easy to find in that size. But, in 1/18 land, where you have a better selection of weapons, I'm betting the small stuff would look more out of place.
