I am getting a nice little WWII movie figure / Vehicle collection at this point. Dual purpose as well.
Use them from the intended film theme, or use in a multitude of various scenes.
I would venture The "Cross of Iron" would be a popular theme to add on !

A decorated Sgt Steiner in a combat position would really make for a great figure. And to really go out on a limb, maybe 2-3 of his close squad members. WOW. Some really great diorama possibilities.

Mcqueen in his "War Lover" flying outfit would be different,,

My vote would be for Dr Strangelove.

General Ripper with Colonel Mandrake:

Other notables in the film to include Gen "Buck" Turgidson, Maj "King" Kong, President Merkin Mufley, Col "Bat" Guano, Ambassador Sadesky, and of course Dr Strangelove himself. Self-monitoring radiation badges optional.

One of these days I hope to convince Andy to do Richard Burton's CPT. MacRoberts from "The Desert Rats."



My next pick would be doing "The Dirty Dozen"

Lots of possibilities out of this group, Steiner the star of the group.

The scene of the parade in "the dirty dozen" when Donald Sutherland plays the general. XD

You could take a few characters from that film including the quintessential Australian portrayed in films of the time by Chips Rafferty !

I am a huge fan of Steve McQueen and the movie the Sand Pebbles. Where do I get this figure? Is it discontinued?

Yes unfortunately it is...sometimes pops up some of this range, but this is really rare. By the way here is one: good luck! https://www.ebay.it/itm/King-Countr...820394?hash=item4b2eafccea:g:5IIAAOSwzsFaGxnN
