Scope,no the cap on the cia guy doesnt come,i think it is attached like the spec ops guy in the last series but i havent tried yet.All the figures do have wrist articulation and the hands hold pretty much everything with ease.

thanks Shadow im glad that they brought the wrist articulation back for these guys

delgado camo is still making me think though could it be British camo? i doubt it is it just doesnt look the same as the others

Damn these look sweet! The one I'm worried about is the machine gunner Omar. To me, he looks like the idea Roadblock for the GI Joe guys. Could make him hard to find. Hope not.

Hey, can we all order some from BBI directly?

Im not sure how many they will sell to people although im sure they have more since 2 of the figures were seen in febuary hanging above the F16 so they must have made more since then.

wrist articulation... that's some good news !

I found 3 different 1/12 scale BBi bubbas at my local Walgreens of all places. $3.99 each or 2 for $5.99.

Cool that these are out - maybe it means the new 1/18 was on the same boat!

It would be awesomee if the 1/18 EF showed up in Walgreens, etc...as it stands the TRU only nightmare is getting worse and worse...
And hey, why are bigger figures cheaper??

flpickupman · Post by **flpickupman** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 10:47 am

I agree, 1/18 at Walgreens would rock. As for 1/12 being cheaper, my only guess would be the lack of articulation. Aren't the McFarlane's 1/12? How much do those go for?

digger · Post by **digger** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 10:50 am

McFarlanes guys are a bit bigger than 1/12 - they go for $10-$12 depending where you buy them. You're probably right that the lack of articulation keeps the price down. Wish they made these guys in 1/18 instead - they looked great from the pics we saw at one of the cons a ways back.

flpickupman · Post by **flpickupman** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 10:56 am

They are pretty sharp, and if I could justify an odd-ball scale, they're well worth the price.

Sounds good i too hope that there was some new 1:18 on the same boat afterall the F16 is due soon so fingures crossed. How many different figures were there?

flpickupman · Post by **flpickupman** » Tue Oct 31, 2006 5:24 am

3 different figures. One Force Recon Marine, and two Army guys. One I think was Airborne, and the other was either a Ranger, or a Green Beret, if I remember correctly.

Is there a new Humvee coming out anytime soon, preferably with the armor shielded .50 mg mount?

scope uk · Post by **scope uk** » Sun Nov 05, 2006 2:59 pm

If theyre german and from bbi then they are new because they have not made a german anything yet.

Birddog · Post by **Birddog** » Sun Nov 05, 2006 4:52 pm

Just a guess, but they might be part of the 1/24 scale line that Merrit has released this year.

Yes, that is what they look like.
We had noticed the Humvee a few posts back but now that the pics enlarge it is clear! Good Stuff!

Definitely good stuff on the Humvee. Another Humvee variant to add to my growing Humvee collection......

the dora (railway gun) could be one of any of a number of dora models/kits that have been released recently. In 1/144, 1/35 and i think there is a 1/72 one coming as well. It's nearly 2 meters long in 1/35!

The Humvee with .50 cal has been spotted, announced or something, before.

Agreed the 109 is 1/24. I think BBI is pretty dead set against German stuff at this point.

wait am I missing something? We are getting a new corsair?

Rowsdower · Post by **Rowsdower** » Sun Nov 05, 2006 7:26 pm

That Humvee with the shielded .50 cal is sweet! Gotta have one!

Yep Shin we are getting another Corsair from BBI. Actually its the same Corsair they have produced its just another paint scheme and it looks pretty cool if you ask me.

Has anyone actually seen the BBI F-16 Falcon and F/A-18 Hornet at TRU yet? I've been checking, but nothing yet. Also, didn't Mike mention that the green Zero was also supposed to show up at TRU this fall?

Rowsdower · Post by **Rowsdower** » Fri Nov 10, 2006 2:07 pm

Just got my Super Humvee convertible with the recoiless rifle in the back from Small Joes. I didn't think we still used those guns anymore but it's a pretty wicked setup.

Lots of MGs as well, kinda reminds me of The Rat Patrol.
