OUR WAR WWII Germans Discussion

[K-Tiger]

Mine would definitely be more real-world and less propaganda joke.

 

[Monkeywrench]

Ain't that the truth!


The WW2 cap I have kicks all kinds of ass. But I would love to see what you can come up with!

I would like to see your WW2 Cap. I'm a big fan of Cap.

 

[melvin]

[MMorelock66]

Aww Cap is gonna have some fun with these guys.

 

[WVMojo]

Those look great...I'm down for a couple of sets.

They look great.

 

[K-Tiger]

*hums Deutschlandlied*

Pretty good. Heads are a little on the caricatured side, and the straps and slings are a bit thick.

Still, good stuff.

 

[Keenan]

Awesome! Want to sell one??

 

[Meddatron]

Yeah baby. Looking good Melvin. Damn, you are on top of this big time! Thanks! The Officer in the first pic looks awesome!

 

[melvin]

Sorry we have to use the samples to take photos and display on some occasions, please wait for the release in December.The packages are still in design.

 

[Keenan]

Yeah, that's fine. Figured it couldn't hurt to ask. =)

 

[Tria]

thanks Melvin!

I am definetely going to buy them! 2x sets I think...

 

[Maritime96]

[TheVP]

[SR_501]

Is there kit removable? IF so than I have a use for those Dragon zeltbahns, I have laying around... I hope I can find them!

 

[K-Tiger]

Looks like it.

Dunno how well a zelt AND the gear is gonna work out, but I'm sho hoping it does. I got me some ideas all of a sudden.

Yes,belt,knife,removable.

 

[lancelot]

Do these guys turn at the waist?

 

[melvin]

Yep. ball hinged waist.

I would replace the torso for a less detailed one thats skinny so, it would hopefully work. Or maybe sand down the stock torso...

And I got some FoV German heads ready for replacement along with some anklets and low boots!

How do these figures stack up to other companies figures? Say Indiana jones, Ultimate Soldier, and Bravo team figures.

 

[pcsguy88]

The modern US forces were nice, but they are true 3 3/4" and dwarfed by any of the Joes. My only complaint on the US troops were the identical heads, huge weapons and the vest had a sticky/shiny thing going on that made it look like a toy. Figure construction and articulation is superb.

Ach, gamaschen!

There was a lot of evolution from the first 21st Germans and the last, but these should be able to get more dynamic poses. The same will go for the Unimax. They won't touch either of those in the detail department, though.

Kind of wish these came with M39 tornister.

Same size as Bravo Team.

Will the final release have matched flesh tones?Those forearms are really sticking out to me for some reason.

I would assume so. The figures Melvin has are just reproduction stuff right?

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Right ^^

Yep. ball hinged waist.

Hi,we noticed the forearms are not well made so need some DIY there. The final products will be the same as molds are fixed,sorry.

Minor work on an otherwise amazing figure. These still have me won over.

 

[Meddatron]

Melvin gave us some outdoor pics too. http://forums.fighting118th.com/showthread.php?t=6273

 

[Kaboomskie]

I'm gonna buy atleast 2 or 3 sets. Hope there's gonna be a bright future for this line, I really love WW2 stuffs. If we get more, I might give up GIJoe for this toyline.

Hope there's gonna be Americans, Brits, Japanese and Italians. And some generic looking resistance fighters wouldn't hurt.

 

[Pickelhaube]

Hello Melvin,

Is there a chance that you all will be making WW 1 figures for the upcoming 100 year anniversary of WW1 ?

 

[Kaboomskie]

Any news, Melvin?

 

[WVMojo]

Ditto^^^^^^^

Thought we'd hear something when he said a December release.
