Airfix 1/72nd WWII German Paratroops


Comments: Is that not Mitt Romney in the top box image? Running into battle with a deer in the head light look. That is Mitt as a Nazi, is it not? I think the Brit's never like that guy. I think ther is a consperecy here!  Here is the link to the Italeri Paratroops.

Airfix 1/72nd WWII British Paratroops


Comments: This is another set that I'm sure I had as a youth. This set is usable thanks to a couple of figures. The dying guy, the walking "game over" guy with  his right arm up, and the running guy are all figures I regularly us as soviets. Sorry guys, Uncle Joe needs you :-(

Heller 1/72nd WWII U.S. Paratroops/Paras Americains




Comments: Another Aixfix set, repackaged as Heller. These figures are real crap. The Officer & radio guy may be usable, and some of the others may make acceptable dead guys in another theater. I let my 5 year old play with these. The flash is so bad that there maybe no way to remove it. I may or may not had this set when I was a youth, however the lack of quality in this kit reminds me of those times long ago. Why is it that, these crappy sets have me typing in more than the others posts for now?

Heller 1/72nd WWII British Commandos/Commandos Britanniques




Comments: I was still in my western allies phase when I got these. They were cheap at $5.50us, and I was happy when I discovered that they were the same figures from a Airfix set that I had when I was a kid in the 70's. Even though this set is a bit crude and figures are small, it still has a lot of usable figures that could be used in many various ways. I use the ladder all the time. I think the kayakers will become civilians, shooting only the rapids in peace time.

Pegasus 1/72nd WWII German Mortar Teams (Granatwerfer)




Comments:This was one of the first 1/72 figure sets that I purchases in my current metamorphosis. I painted it once in panzer grey without primer, then stripped it only to Prime them in white (which I wished I had never done). well I've have about two years into these figures & sometimes I think of just buying a new set & starting over. This is such a nice kit & I hope I do it justice
