DAK????

Post by 75th Ranger » Wed Apr 18, 2007 3:38 am

Fellow hobby fans,

What is going on with the DAK series?....we got these two new nice figures but there seems to be nothing else coming out that will complement that line?...any ideas?

is 21st going or is planning on releasing a 2nd set of figures these year?

with the delayed on the 1st set of figures to appear in the stores and the lack of the 88 gun and/or King tiger in stores...i wonder how long will it be for the DAK kublewagon to come out?....what do you guys think?

any possbilities of a Stuart tank in desert tones?

keep me posted.

We've already got a couple DAK planes in 1:18. I'm sure we'll see some vehicles in DAK paintschemes in the future :wink:

as point out by others DAK is a subject that has only scratched the surface as far as product offerings are concerned. However I would place bets that more will come. A DAK paint scheme P-40 or other pieces of armor have got to be in the works at some point.

I'm not sure if this was covered before. I was wondering why the DAK figures have the "old style" arms and not the new articulate ones? To me, this takes away from the posability of the figure. Was this a oversight or a shortcut :?: :roll:

Yes, I've wondered the same thing. Maybe they were in the works before the D-Day figures, but 21C decided to release them all together.

Just by head-swapping, I've now got four different Daks...I'm considering picking up more of them, however I dont want to end up with a bunch of figs that have nothing to go with them or anybody to do combat against. :wink: "WE NEED BRITS!" please :D

I heard that they are making a 1/18 scale Ju-52 and kublewagon in Dak colors. These will go well with the 223 Scout car and Rummels little half track Grief that are in the pipe works already :twisted:

TKO be careful what you say! You know that I have a "condition" and with you saying things like "bet" will put me into a Stuka tail spin!
