That Dongfeng does look cool.. $70 sounds good, $199.. yikes!!
I do need to get those Chiner soldiers though. I wish we'd get proper Russian figures, but these will have to do.
Yeah I have one of those two.. really I feel like they're almost the same size. But that sucks that you were bamboozled.. was it on eBay or somewhere else where you can get your money back?
Scale is a bitch because the figures aren't 1:18 exactly and don't behave and fit in things like real humans do. 1:18 cars look great next to figures but getting them inside is usually a real challenge.
More than anything it's best to make it 'close enough' I think.
Really.. as we've said forever.. they need a vidyagame to sell these characters to kids. A Fortnite-esque game with different Joe characters would probably push a lot of product.
These characters already seem suited for that with the gold and ridiculousness. PDD would be perfect.
The stupid...
About $250. You can get them cheaper but I opted for a few upgrades which, I dunno, we'll see if they matter or not.
I'm a sucker for anything Russian since we'll seemingly never get it in 1:18.
I got a 1:16 T-90 to go with my OpFor, but also haven't had time since the move to really do anything with it yet. Looks really cool though. I want to get those Chiner figures to go with it maybe.
Size comparison
Yeah it was mine, I started it like.. shit, probably 8 years ago? Long long time ago. It still looks the same, I haven't gotten to really detailing it, but wanted to get rid of the stock paintjob above. It's a nice little tank, and I always appreciate something non-US.
I think everyone in this thread is no longer with us... at least on the forums. Fled is on Facebook though I know, probably the others too.
I do need to make some more OpFor though...
That looks cool. I have one of those floating around here somewhere.. if I ever get a workbench up and running I might try. Are the wheels the same size as the 21st Century HMMWV? Might do a swap if so.
