I have 39 US, Brit & German WW II military figures to identify (1 Viewer)

[nick1234]

I have a collection of 39 very well done plastic figures from an unknown maker. I acquired them at a toy show about 15 years ago.
Each figues is very well done and each have a description of the figure on the base stating what their rank, name and unit is.
They are all 60mm scale. They look a lot like Marx. When I purchased these, the owner did not have much information, but that they were listed as prototypes.
The painting is quite accuate and the modeling is exellent.
Any help with make and/or price would be appreciated.
You can contact me for pix.

Why not just post the photos here, unless there's some reason for more discretion than usual in these requests?

Prost!

Treefrog states that I cannot use my photos due to the fact that they are greater than what their site can handle.

This is a converted Tamiya of Japan hard plastic figure,bought unassembled and unpainted,built and painted by the buyer,mounted on a base from the old Airfix multi-pose plastic figures,all 70's or early 80's.

Ah, OK, understood. Yes, if you choose to upload photos to the forum as attachments, you must comply with the file size and dimension restrictions. I use a photo hosting site, so I don't have to worry about those restrictions, which vary from forum to forum and get to be a pain to deal with, since I belong to many different forums.

Thanks for posting the photos you did. I agree with Gregg. Those look like Tamiya figures, affixed to Airfix bases. They're not going to be worth very much, in my opinion. Tamiya's kit figures aren't considered all that good, compared to other manufacturers' figures today, and the ones in your pictures don't look like they're painted very well (the German word, "scheusslich" comes to mind). If the rest look like that, you're better off selling them as a lot. Their real value is to someone building a diorama, who needs a group of figures, and who will strip the paint and paint them to a higher standard of detail.

Prost!
