Hey guys,
it looks like MARS is going to announce the next WWII set in its 1:32 series!
WWII JAPANESE!
I will buy them of course, but personally speaking the regular Japanese infantry has been done to death.
Nothing new here. So MARS if you are listening, here are a few more exciting...
Hey everybody,
today I received my new PANZER II by "Eagle Design".
They advertised that it was 1:30th scale, but to my great delight it is actuality 1:32 scale!!!!
No one has ever done a Panzer II in 1:32!! This pre-made replica is a must!!
Panz. II compared to STUG III for scale...
Hey guys, Plastic General here!
While we wait for FOV to deliver their first "NEW" vehicles from their 1:32 WWII line,
I've decided to crank out something that wasn't on their list!
a 1:32 US M-12.
Made with a 1:32 MONOGRAM SHERMAN and a 21st CENT. TOYS LONG TOM with crew.
The...
Ok, there's been a lot of criticism regarding the new WARHANSA GERM. PARA. TROOPS.
As you can see, by filing down their helmets and whittling their weapons, they can be made into very decent figures!
Being made of the same soft glueable plastic as BRITAINS DEETAIL, they were quite easy to...
For the record, I'm happy that WARHANSA released a new set of 1:32 GERMAN PARATROOPERS!
When they arrived today I knew I would have to give them some much needed "Plastic Surgery".
Now that the helmets are the proper shape and some of the weapons have been carved down in size, they work pretty...
I just saw a sneak preview from the 2017 Nuremberg Toy Fair!
It says 100% NEW MOLDS!
But its the exact same S-Boat as the other one released 7 years ago!!??
Its officially called: SCHNELLBOOT S-38.
Why would they do that!? 100% NEW MOLDS!! What an opportunity wasted!!
Does anyone out there have...
FORCES OF VALOUR / UNIMAX has been bought by a company called WALTERSONS!
Their planed releases for 2017 in 1:32 vehicles are as follows:
* US M-10 Tank Destroyer
* US EASY EIGHT
* US SHERMAN w. 105mm Gun
* GERM. STRUM TIGER
* GERM. (Early) TIGER I
* GERM. 10cm KANNON
* SOV. SU-100
*...
I've been saying for a while, that someone out there needs to do US NAVY SAILORS in COMBAT!
Now there are two types that fall under this subject:
The classic Navy Blues & Navy Whites with neckerchiefs.
And the A.A. Gunners and Defence Crews of ships and Aircraft Carriers.
I love the guy...
1:32 TYPE VII U-BOAT Dream Project!
I always wanted a 1:32 U-Boat, but waiting for someone else to create this 6ft monster could take a life time?
I'm 47, my life is 20% over, don't wanna wait!!!!
WELCOME TO "PLASTIC GENERAL SHIP YARDS"
My little helpers are working around the clock to complete...
That's right!!
My FOV & 21st CENT. TOYS figures and collection needed a new addition,
so I'm building a giant 1:32, "B-29 SUPER FORTRESS" with full interior!
Will post later tonight!
The Plastic General
Well I defiantly feel that the 8 poses of US MARINES have a better spectrum of variety then the NVA set does.
But the sculpting on the NVA is crisp and hard to beat.
* A good PRONE figure firing an M-60 is much needed.
* Also much needed is a figure throwing a GRENADE.
Why do so many sets...
If I was to be fortunate enough in life to come out with a set of figures (8 poses) and 8 poses only,
you can bet I would put a lot of thought into my release to cover as much diversity within the set as possible.
I have always been puzzled about what and how poses within a set are chosen...
FOV German Inf. in Winter Camo. Part #1
We all remember these 4 figures that came with the FOV Germ. winter halftrack.
Sadly all the poses were odd except for the one throwing the grenade, so I converted them all to much more useful poses.
This was the only figure I didn't touch.
Plastic...
These were the first conversions I ever did!
All this talk about the return of CONTE,
reminded me that I felt the need to round out my SS troops by creating running and fireing MG from waste figures.
I made these from leftovers from my CTS SS figures.
Commander with binoculars.
Conte needs...
These conversions were made from the PUBLIUS Stalingrad set.
I always buy 3 sets of everything so I can have 3 Shooting poses, 2 Running or granade poses and 1 pose for a figure doing something less common.
I had some left over knife and commander poses so I cut them up and put them to good use...
