This is an EXCELLENT find!
If we could find a free shipping code - this would be OUTSTANDING!!

For me @ zipcode 41018 when my order got over 5lbs the shipping dropped from 8.95 to 7.50
Of course this is going to be different by location of the buyer.


You can go to:
http://www.greatmodels.com/
Look at the left hand side for SEARCH and click on it.
You can then put the numbers or it lets you look by scale and type of product.
They have the 4 assorted figures in the numbers provided by CrazyinTexas and they have individual figures also (1.75 for Zippy Burns) :D .
They look to be on sale for Christmas.

Good Find, Crazy!

Thanks Crazy, fifteen figures for $40 shipped is pretty good in my book!

Wait, so for the assorted set "1/18 TFB10490S2A Assorted 4 Figures (Series 6) WWII US MARINES" do you get 4 figures for "Your Price: $7.95"??? or is that the price per figure? Do you know which ones you get or is it just random?

It's 4 figures for 7.95 total.
If you look in the search area they sell the individual figures too.
But I don't see all of any of the series, so they may only have:
TFB10301S1 U.S. Marine: Pvt. Barman Bellochi
TFB10303 U.S. Marine: Sgt. Digger Machugh
TFB10306 U.S. Marine: Pvt. Greasy Gun Bayo
TFB10307 U.S. Marine: Sgt. Zippie Burns

these 4 marines and not the others in this series.
I may be wrong, you could email them to find out.

I've bought off them before. Their inventory system isn't the best, so buyer beware on whether or not your order gets cancelled. I just tried an order and we'll see how it goes. I've had orders cancelled after placing them though and it's frustrating.

Jesse James - I would be interested in hearing what you get.
I tried to place an order last night and 2 of the 4 items showed "IN STOCK" the other 2 didn't say.
So, I didn't order anything.

I'll let everyone know when/if my order goes through. So far nothing though and the work day is winding down, so we'll see I guess. :) I've ordered from them before and gotten everything super fast and super well packed... I'm sure it's just their inventorying software isn't perfect is all. Otherwise the experiences I've had with Great Models have been... well... great. :lol:

I'd gotten many extra Dragon figures there and super cheap too. They still have some I see. I know one order I put in I got a TON of stuff I ordered and a couple things were nixed off my order on the receipt as not available... But they didn't charge me and that's all that really ultimately matters, and they were on top of it right away.

By the way just so we can all play this game, I ordered 2 sets of modern and 3 sets of Japanese. Will they arrive? Who knows!

I see these guys are just outright stealing Bad Cat's photography. They even left the Bad Cat logo on the images. Pretty lame if you ask me, not the sign of a professional outfit.

Oh yeah and they have stolen my photos of the Japanese figures. Nice!

It looks like they don't do any of their own photography. Everything I see is right from someone else's site, be it another retailer or the manufacturer. And their organization/search is kind of pain if you don't know exactly what you are looking for and who makes it.

I had that happen to me with an Ebay auction. The seller stole my pics, description and everything!
I can understand your frustration.

OK, so I got my order. I ordered 5 sets and I got 3. I am assuming the other 2 won't ever show, but I wasn't billed for them anyway so that's good.

So I was expecting 4 figures in each of 3 sets I got... I got a TON more than 4 figures though, and I paid $39-ish total after shipping. What I got were sealed cases of 4 INCH figures. 3 of them... for $8 each. :shock: 2 are modern guys, nothing much there I'm into but good fodder. The other was a Japanese Marine case. Love it!

I have found another site that claims to have most of the case assortments in stock and for $7.50. I'm gonna order a couple and see. Then I'll post the links when my order gets here.

So, exactly how many figures did you get?

That's a really good deal, did everyone get as many figures from them as Jesse?

It's been a long time since this was active and I didn't get everything I ordered, so I wouldn't be hopeful that they have these in stock. They listed things in stock that weren't there when I put my order through.

They dont have any in stock

I emailed them and they replied.
