You mean the NCO going for his gun on the Surgeon?? Straight from "A Bridge to Far"??? Or is that just me?

That there are more than one Movie based themes going on here? Sorry just looking & that`s just hit me.

The twins there?

The 2 casually drinking & chatting?

there are two things in the whole diorama....

and the fact that is has not been visible so far proves that my concept seems to be working....maybe it is too ovious and you guys are taking it for granted or may be it is that the idea is so cool that it does not show.

keep me posted.

keep guessing!

Only other thing is an Airborne medic with Inf here. I`m not seeing it mate...LOL

steelbonnet · Post by **steelbonnet** » Fri Mar 09, 2007 3:45 am

let`s see again.

The two guys talking & drinking,one`s a flyboy?

The one seated,you`ve customized the jacket for him to sit?

The Medic,he`s got a marked medic bag & the one with across his torso (that a custom strap?).the marked medic bag is that a working flap on it?
Of course the bloodied bandages,the pouch in his hand?The used morphen container next to the leg (brown piece of something)?
Again Bandage pouch on helmet is actually a seperate piece & not apart of the original?

On the helmet on the Fuel drum next to the pilot,you`ve added an actual bandage pack to the front of the helmet?

The guy leaning forward.Is that an actual cloth cover on his M1?

Well I`m at a loss now mate.

If it's not visible, how can we spot it??

It can't be the plastic buildings, can it? How about the "scenery" in the background looking a little like a proper diorama thingy rather than just a picture as backcloth?

Nice job on the medic. It is whom I always play when I play Call of Duty 3 for the XBOX 360 I am in the top 800 of the 300,000+ thousand for the medic. I am addicted to it.

75th Ranger · Post by **75th Ranger** » Fri Mar 09, 2007 1:10 pm

If you guys look carefully, you will see that the medic figure and the one of the standing figures holding a canteen are a combination of 21st century parts and bbi parts....what i'm trying to do is make the bbi and the new 21st figures interchangable.....the medic had bbi accessories and arms....but a21st headsculpt and body....the standing figure has a bbi body and 21st arms, headsculpt and accessories....

so what do you guys think of the idea?

now we have room for more figure possibilities!

I like your idea, I think it works well and looks nice.

75th Ranger · Post by **75th Ranger** » Sat Mar 10, 2007 3:37 am

thanks! i hope it opens up opprtunities for all of us.

steelbonnet · Post by **steelbonnet** » Sat Mar 10, 2007 3:48 am

I wanted to wait mate till you openly said on the boards about this.

Have to say again I`d NEVER have seen that & Top marks on it too

It`s great for us all that BBI,XD have made these so interchangable between them.Certainly helps us draft up some new figures till the companies can catch up

Again Top marks mate.

Thanks Steel!

The interchagable parts is a really good concept but be sure that the parts of 21st and bbi are not an exact or perfect match....it will take some accomodating and some brute force to get them switched but in the end it looks pretty good. Also some parts will also fir really loose; therefore, their playability is limited. nevertheless, it is a good idea and it opens a new real of possibilities.

Best of luck.

Its preety cool with the major trauma in front and the guys in back just hanging out. I guess this did happen but now a days everybody would be in the mix. GREAT JOB!!!

Alright 75th...

I'm gonna say that the guy on the operation table "Doesn't need a prescription...he needs ROGAINE?"

You customized his Male Pattern Baldness. And the interchangeable parts thing is a great idea! Good work as always. It totally engages the viewer and put him/her in the moment.

Take care man!

Actually that is one of the 21st line figures. And it comes bald just like it looks in the picture. It has a US body but I guess the used one of the 1st series German Para headscultps...the german para leader. That is the headsculpt used in this figure which 21st used in their Battle of the Bulge series figures.
