Kinda glad I skipped the SEALS after seeing these pics. Something about the plain clothing that makes them look extra bland together. For some reason the sets with camo do not feel so repetitive even though they are exactly the same. Having said that, the Delta boys do enough to be unique.

I feel like the marauder guns are still too big for scale. I remember that being an issue years ago, hard to tell though.

Curious how the Delta figures will look in hand, some of the detail work on those ^ looks way too good to be mass produced.

I agree, the sculpts on newer Joytoy is untouchable.

The Marauders guns are in perfect scale. Marauder on top, joytoy on bottom.

I remember Marauders always looked a little small on Joes. I believe it was the Joes that were out of scale. I wish that MGRs would do less of the detachable mags though. They end up really skinny due to the (necessary) thickness of the plastic on the receiver.

Odd the things that are different sizes there since they're basically the same overall size.

GIANT EOTECH sight, the pistol grip is huge too. The front grip is super long too.

I guess real guns have some variance to them too, but that just seems odd.

While offering great variety and customization options, those removable pieces are just impossible to scale properly and still get to peg onto the rifles.

Not really a fan of the yelling guys. They remind me of O-face Duke from the 25th Joe line.

Well I went and done it again. I preordered these new Germans from Joy Toy. Locker Toys had them but I didn’t see them at my usual online haunt, BBTS. I am stopping after this, unless...😎

The German troops looks great, but WTF is that LMG one of them is holding? I'd much prefer an MG-34/42. Those must be 1935-1939 Wermacht. I'd love to see some SS troopers and Fallschirmjägers. Maybe even Resistance fighters and Pacific Theater figures too. I know some might not agree, but I feel JoyToy holds the gold medal standard for 1:18 Scale figures. Nothing holds a candle to the detail, range of articulation, and factory paint quality.

Big sexy. I feel with two packs, with the alternative heads, you get a full squad.
Everyone knows those $20 elite force sets where you get 5 terribad figures, good weapons And good removable helmets. An easy task Is to cut the heads off and drill bottoms to fit joy toy. 90 percent of the heads are in perfect proportion and now they have removable head gear, if anyone looking for variety among their troops. The BBI heads are actually painted pretty well too. You can also take the chest pieces off the crap BBI figs for future customs as well. Just FYI
