1:18 figure line up

Post by spect_spidey » Tue Nov 01, 2005 5:57 pm

I know alot of members on this forum collect the 1:18 armor and aircraft. I wish I had room to get more than a couple of these pieces. But I figured with all the posts and excitement regarding aircraft and armor in the works for 1:18, does anyone care about the 1:18 figures? Anyone know if either company has any new figures in the works? I know BBI just released their new WW II figures, but has anyone heard rumors or have speculation on the next installment of figures from 21st Century? Hopefully some British, Soviet, Italian, or French soldiers maybe? The repaints are a great way for me to get figures released before I got into this hobby, but I would really love to see some new figures or maybe the old style figures redone with the new articulation. Any thoughts or theories?

Many of us here buy figures by the box
Spidey. Sometimes they are slow in coming, but they really make the vehicles and planes look that much better. Don't worry. 21st century won't stop making their figures. They are solid steady sellers here.

I think the next batch of figures from 21st will be the Platoon line. I would not hold my breath for Brits or soviet, its been at least 3 years since 21st showed a prototype of a US Modern Army figure, if anyone has the old link to the 21st catalog which showed the trooper, please post. He was a basic ground-pounder with M16 a1 and Kevlar helmet.

There are only in 3 places at the moment - WM, ebay and the BST forum :D . They are pretty bountiful at Wally though so you should be able to land some at around $6-7 each from someone, which isn't bad considering tax on each figure, gas, time...etc...

I was initially an aircraft/vehicle fan, and had to get alot of my S1 & S2 21c figures on ebay, however, with the recent releases of the BoB, Marines & Japanese troops at Wal Mart & the small retailers - as well as all the BBI Modern & WWII soldiers - my army has greatly expanded. The figures are a necessary part of the 1:18 lineup and we will continue to see them, even if spaced at odd intervals.
