Received mine last night but only had a few minutes to check it out. Strongly agree with everything Asta said! Excellent head sculpt; I don't see too much resemblance to McDonough but that's ok. It looks like a genuine real person, with realistic complexion and detail. This kind of quality is...

Thanks for checking out my post! And I would be all in on some officers - it'd be great to have someone leading the marching company I hope to put together. Your cavalry lieutenant would be even more awesome on a horse, with the infantry marching alongside.

So, moving past the head sculpts, I'd like to introduce my replacements for Mr. Curry and Mr. Van Gogh: Confederate Sergeant Axelrod and Union Sergeant Borden. These sculpts were an extra Facepool Richard Winters I had (from the deluxe set) and a Terminator Salvation John Connor (not sure if...

Hey everyone, I received my Iowa and Texas figures from Kit a few days ago and will offer my impressions of both here. Asta covered them really well so I'll try not to be too redundant. I agree with Asta the quality is very good, outside of the 2 head sculpts (more on that soon). These are my...

Yellow tripod on sale for $54 at BBTS! Green one is regular price at $90 though. I didn't get either one, but I did get the MG34 accessory kit for $48.

For anyone interested, BBTS has the Special Edition for $174 and Standard for $108. I decided I didn't need the cupola or the angry head sculpt, so I went with the Standard.

Totally agree on the glossy hands; the gloves hands do look much better so I'll be keeping those on.

I received my special edition yesterday from Giantoy so I'll share some in-hand pics showing the 2 head sculpts and 2 helmets. I have somewhat mixed feelings about this figure in terms of how it stacks up to the promo photos, but what do you think?

$515! I have one coming from Kit too, can't wait

I appreciate you bringing up that post, because I wondered if I'd dreamt it up after it disappeared! It was disappointing to hear those complaints since I'm looking forward to this one (1st Ujindou for me). I'm still holding out hope that it'll be great, especially since the post was...

Awesome, I hadn't seen the news that they were doing another Huang Zhong so thanks for the heads up! I'll be pre-ordering this for sure as the older version of him is too pricey on the secondary market. I'm relatively new to collecting so please rely on the veterans to weigh in, but I'll...

Thanks for posting this! After the earlier pic of the size disparity, I thought this line of figures wouldn't go with my 303 Toys stuff at all. Your pic looks real good though! Hope the other Wei generals match up size-wise too

I see a nice improvement here. If this is the final product, I'm good with it.

Camo and cigarette for sure, and strongly agree on the stoic look. That would've been nice - I mean, the guy didn't even look phased when he was machine gunning prisoners!

I agree, terrible attempt at Jeremy Davies but does anyone else see some resemblance to Ronald Speirs (as played by Matthew Settle)? I might try to use the head sculpt for a Speirs to go with my Facebook Winters.

Welcome! (from a fellow new poster) I agree, I prefer DiD quality but this figure looks awesome and I pre-ordered immediately. My impressions of the Facepool figures I've gotten: Winters (love it) Sniper Jackson (likeness to Barry Pepper isn't there but good face - I think of it as some random...

I say you can't go wrong with it! I like my DiD Saving Private Ryan figures better; I can't place it but I feel they just have a slight edge in quality and weight. Since you already got almost all of the DiD ones, this Facepool figure is a nice complement to them. Your family connection to...

Yup, I just got the same e-mail as Niumpok.

That's terrible, that your co-workers and the work environment were like that, especially after you put in 11 years there. I feel for ya...

I'm sorry to hear about that; you have my sympathies! I lived in Japan, too, from around 2005-2008, so I can imagine the uncertainty of being jobless and losing the visa sponsorship (it's not immediate, right? Do you have a few months to find new employment?). I don't have anything helpful to...
