DAMTOYS (DAM-78081) Operation Red Wings NAVY SEALS SDV TEAM 1 Radio Telephone Operator

Sorry if this already exists. I would be shocked if it doesn't, I have done a couple searches and couldn't find anything.

Does anyone have this? I just got my shipping notice. I have the Team Leader figure and it is flat out amazing.

 

[BuddyGus]

Got this in and the figure is an absolute banger sorry for the crappy pictures

 

[FlyAndFight]

Looks real good. Is this supposed to represent a character in a film? Perhaps from "Lone Survivor"?

 

[BuddyGus]

Yes. It is supposed to be Navy Seal Danny Dietz. They have done the entire team. I have e first two releases and they are great. Very detailed. My only complaint are the bendy hands. They just look a little strange.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Cool. I remember seeing the Marky Mark figure and they appeared to nail the head sculpt. I've been tempted to pick that one up but trying to cut back on new figures. Just too many pre-orders coming due in the last month or so. The wallet has been hit hard.

 

[Johnny Utah]

I wish they'd do Black Hawk Down.

 

[BuddyGus]

Headsculpts are very good. The equipment set is just out of their world though.
And yes, Black Hawk Down would be great. I would even like them to do Tears of the Sun or Platoon even though they are both fictional.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I wish they'd do Black Hawk Down.

If not mistaken, Dam Toys already released several of the key figures many years ago. But I would love for them to revisit the license using today's tech and better head sculpts.

Here is one photo that I had saved of the Dam Toys BHD figures. My apologies to the owner, as I don't have his info to provide him with credit.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Yeah a revisit would be epic.

Ended up buying this figure from Monkey Depot last night. I really didn’t want to dive into military figures much but the Red Wings figures are really incredible looking. I pre-ordered a Luttrell off Giantoy to display with, I guess I’ll get Axelson next and need to track down a Murphy somehow.

I really can’t believe how good these looking, surprised there wasn’t more buzz for these.

 

[Chambea1114]

Yeah these figures are awesome I took a small break from buying Military figures which is what I normally collect and started focusing more on Hot toys so at the time I didn't really care about Murphy because honestly didn't see Dam actually finishing the squad but out of nowhere they announced one and then when Luttrell was announced the regret really sat in. Is what it is though can't get them all. I might still try and get Luttrell if funds come available.

Off-topic regarding the Black Hawk Down figures. I would LOVE an updated line of these figures and would buy them again, they're still not that bad for their age. I think the biggest issue is the bodies I changed the body on Eversmann with a newer Dam body and it's actually really good, another issue is the uniforms themselves are tailored pretty big. Anyway, I still have these on display and adore them as this era of equipment and camo is so nostalgic for me now.

 

[BuddyGus]

Those BHD figure hold up well. Wish I had gotten them when they came out. And to be fair, those uniforms run big in real life. Lol. Great set up.

 

[FlyAndFight]

This is one set that I regret missing on.

I did have the old DML/Dragon versions of Eversmann, McKnight and a custom Hoot but ended up selling them off. That was a long time ago.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I received this figure earlier this week. If not mistaken, my first DamToys figure and it is quite impressive.

The Sniper shipped from Giantoy earlier this week and I have the corpsman (Luttrell) on preorder from them, as well.

 

[BuddyGus]

Awesome figure. Enjoy.
