* 21st. Unreleased 32x British Red Devils
* Has anybody taken advantage of some of these sets being sold on eBaY ?
.................... A fellow board member had picked up a set and told me about them. I picked up a few sets pretty cheap myself as a BIN w/ Free Shipping ! ... Apparently these are being sold by just more than one seller. Some are being sold in "half sets" . The cheapest are sellers from China and one offering Free Shipping ! ... Some domestic sellers are jumping on the band wagon and taking advantage of these cheap deals from China and profiting by it. ... I seen a 5-pc. set go on eBaY for $78.00 bucks !
* Here's an example :
* This is the same set found on the back of a box of Japanese Imperial Marines !
...... the sniper w/ the scope on his rifle , appears to look like a Commando , because of his cap. ... and the one lying down obviously ,
has a Piat .

ok, yeah, I saw these and couldn't think of when they came out.
I thought they were unreleased.

* These are nice figures , which stamped on the bottom of their bases , bear
21st.C's trademark , 21st.Century Toys 2008 . So , apparently these are made from exact 21st.Century molds.
* Here's some better pics :

Re: * 21st. Unreleased 32x British Red Devils / Update !
* Interesting update :
........................................ I just received my order today from Hong Kong and these particular sets are carded unlike my previous 5-pc. loose set I got from another Chinese seller.
* These are in sets of 3 , both A & B , just like that set of Chinese and those Germans.
Only these are in * * * * Four Star Military * * * * carded packs , item # 20207 , w/ the 21st.Century logo 2008 on the back which depict the A set of Chinese Infantry Series 1 # 20197 & a B set of U.S. Heavy Artillery Crew - 8 inch . # 21109 . I think some of these were already sold this way before 21st., went out but not any of the new Paratroopers.
* Set A : Part # 21101 British Infantry Series III
* Set B : Part # 21102 same as above

Re: * 21st. Unreleased 32x British Red Devils / Update !
* No problem ! ... eBaY ! ! ! ... Like I said above in my first post. A fellow board member picked up a set and told me about them ... My first 5-pc. loose set was from seller "cnyulch" which was a bid auction w/ Free Shipping that I still won cheap , say $12.00 . ... Then the same member found another seller , ShopOriental , which only this time , was selling these in sets of 3 , A & B , for $3.99 ea. as BIN w/ only $4.00 shipping. You can see their ad in my 2 pics provided.
I bought 3-sets w/ the 3rd. set shipped for Free . Had it not been for PanzerArm , I probably would'nt have known about these for some time. Apparently , some of these sets have been selling on eBaY since as far back as August , from what I can tell.

This is good intel. Hard to know what made it down the production line before the fall. Hope we see some more.

Maybe the 21st Century US Marine set is out there somewhere.
Re: * 21st. Unreleased 32x British Red Devils
As for the sniper guy - who appears to be wearing a commando hat. Upon close inspection, he actually looks like he has his para scarf on his head. Kinda makes sense in that a sniper wouldn't want to be wearing anything as conspicuous as a red beret.
