As seems to happen a lot with this blog, a throwaway idea turned into something that takes up more time than expected. Oh well, it keeps me from getting bored.
Here we shall meet the latest recruits to our Ever Victorious Army.
Note how many of them are basically the same figure except in a different colour, scale and quality of moulding. Is anybody keeping track of all these for copyright purposes?
12. Russians ( I think)
I'm categorising these as Russians purely based on the drum mags on the MG. Everything else is so generic they could be anybody. Here's a better view.
13. Yet another batch of Greenies.
Amazing how many mortarmen and bazookateers you get in these toy soldier sets.
You never see anybody carrying bags of potatoes or polishing kit.
14. A slightly different platoon of Greens.
This unit going for stealth rather than overwhelming firepower.
Also, a marginally different shade of green.
Now imagine how much fun I had trying to sort these little sods out into sets.
15. Khaki Russians
Or possibly Germans, or Americans or frigging Romanians for all I know.
16. More Green Americans.
I have no idea what the guys in the front row are shooting at. Nazi rabbits maybe?
Now there's an idea for a comic.
"1945. Hitler unleashes his most terrifying - yet cute - Wunderwaffen.
The SS Bunnies of Death"
17. Burly Americans
Look at the pecs on those machine-gunners. John Rambo his own bad self would be envious.
I think that's it for tonight.
