Small Scale Military Headquarters

That Marine reminds me of John Wayne from The Sands of Iwo Jima, good job RED!

I'd like to see some British Paratroopers would fit nicely with the other stuff made, espically with the new US paratroopers. Ive been thinking of making a Pegasus Bridge dio lately too...

I was watching the making of of the Great Raid on Spike last night. Looks pretty good, cant wait to see it. It looks as if Dale Dye is the military advisor so this film is in good hands. Anyway I'll be there on the 12th!

Take care,
Joe

That is simply amazing! Your other customs are great! Ever plan on making a JagdTiger? Again amazing work!
Joe

Amen to that Tman! My Marines want a Chinook! Also making a Chinook and Hind there are so many repaint possibilities, and we all know that BBi and 21st like to make repaints.

Since Im proberly the youngest here I thought I'd chime in. TMan hit it right on. Kids now a days dont want to do anything creative they just want to play video games, watch tv, go on the computer. Now I do all of those things, but I use them differently. TV for me is watching the History Channel or...

Thanks for the replies and the links. I will have to try them out. Next time I go to the hobbie shop near me I'll look for the Dragon Sherman Thanks again.

Joe

Thanks for the help, I'll have to start hunting for these.

Joe

I highly suggest the book Enemy at the Gates which the movie is based off of. The movie seems to be somewhat accurate to the book. Its pretty accurate how the Russians were treated. I know I read some where in there about the Russians shooting deserters. The Russian soldiers were afriad of giving up...

Hello, Well the other day I was at a hobby shop looking for some HO Scale buildings for my layout and I came across some Academy 1/35 German SS Infantry. They were $6.99 so I thought why not?I had always wanted to get some 1/35 stuff. So now that I made those I'm pretty much hooked. So I'd like to k...

Wow, very impressive. It looks so realistic. And i second what macvsog said what a collection!

Bomb dropping action would be cool. I'd buy a whole squadron then set up my Germans and fly strafing runs. I think it'd be cool if they made it R/C, with the bomb dropping action. If that was the case I'd build a German HQ then fly strafing runs! Well what ever they do it should be good.

Joe

Excellent. Cant wait for the Avenger to come out. Im glad its got the folding wings and the turret. Also glad I didnt get the Panzer IV yet cause the camo version shown looks good, as done the winter scheme.

Joe

Hello, Chesy thanks for the comments, I have yet to complete my 251, I'm experimenting with different things to make the mud look 3D. Elmers si proberly what I'll use. But I dont plan on repaint the vehicle itself at least not for a while. As for the zimmerit I have no idea how to do that but I know...

thanks for the link normandy. great reference site.

Hello,
First off all I decided I will be ordering this tank. Secondly I'am terrible at telling what divisions German armor are from. So does anyone know what divison this tak is from and where was it stationed through out the war. Thanks.

Take care,
Joe

To answer your questions Aferguson, the camouflaged were used often. After the Iwo Jima flag raising the American public knew they were Marines by these uniforms. Most men though did use the green standard uniform with a camo helemt cover. So what the 21Century guys have is pretty accurate. So in sh...

I cant wait for these figures. I'am a HUGE Marine fanatic, literally.(you should see my room :D ) Plan on enlisting after collage. My uncle was in the the Marines which is what caused me to study military history. I cant wait to get these. If they are good I'll most likely buy another set. As said b...

I said the 88 just because of how widely used it was. What would be really cool is a coastal defense bunker with a cannon in it like the ones at Merville highly unlikly but would be cool non the less. Back to reality I'd really like to see an 88 with a full crew to man it.

Joe

Funny that this poll came up as I just bought Full Metal Jacket. If there were figures from that movie I'd buy them in a heart beat. I can see it know, a Parris Island diorama with R. Lee Ermy screaming at Pvt Pyle, all in 1/18. Oh I can only wish. I think Marines are a must for the Vietnam line, I ...

Do you realy think that BBI will do german vehicles? -MandaloreSC I personally dont think BBi will produce German vehicles. They havent made any enemy vehicles or figures for there modern line so I think us seeing German armor and vehicles is unlikely. But I really do hope they will make some, as th...

opps your right taken care of

Joe

I had high hopes for this vehicle, but I think I'm going to wait until the QC is improved. (Knowing myself I'll wind up ordering one or two anyway :D ) I hope we can see an improved version,(i.e. repaints or different versions of the vehicle) or maybe BBi can make one. Joe P.S. for anyone who needs ...

I just picked this book up from my B. Dalton in the mall. It is an excellent book, written by the Gunny himself. Its broken down into six parts, weapons, gear, grunts, airplanes, ships, and vehicles. Its the same questions as on the show, with photos from it. Its 244 pages long, and includes when he...

YES! I have been waiting for this vehicle since the start of the XD line. So many possibilities with it. The figures dont look too bad either. Ships January 3 eh? Just 17 days before my birthday...
