I like them all, but more than anything, I want an army or samurai.

caught a post about this on another board. Unimax are the guys who do the Forces of Valor figures that Target carries. Those are pretty good quality with a lot of cool gear, so I have to admit I'm pretty excited about these . . . . http://www.unimax.com.hk/product_inside ... &type=toys I'm gonna buy the hell out of that ninja and samurai if these get picked up by some chain. The rest of those have some parts I could see being really useful. And in browsing their site they apparently have a 1/18th scale Stryker and a WW2 halftrack, so hopefully Target will see those eventually. |

They look cool. Have the military figures been in store before? Just trying to figure out who might carry these. |

Target carries the military stuff, so they'd be a good bet to carry these. Time will tell. |

I can't help but think about the song from Monty Python's Holy Grail when I look at the Knight Templar.... We're knights of the round table... |

EDIT: Okay, now that I look closer I see the articulation so I say: "YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"  Please, PLEASE tell me they WILL be showing up at my local Target or at least on some website that won't ask me to donate a major organ to afford them. Because then my fantasy stuff will really get a chance to take off. I think I actually have one of those Dino Warriors, though it's not one listed--I bought it at Target about 2 years ago (they've since stopped carrying them but I'm pretty sure it was that line). Chap Mei look (bulky, but you kind of have to figure it for that line) but considerably more articulation (shoulder, elbow, hip, knee and side-to-side neck articulation) and the dino had a moving jaw and moving shoulder/hip joints and a pretty good amount of overall detail both in sculpt and painting. |

The historical figures are very nice and the ninja is great. But the real gem on those pages IMHO is the 1:18 Stryker IFV. That pwns! |

That Stryker is nice, might be my new APC. I hope they reconsider doing the Apache & Blackhawk. |

I went to their web site and tried to email a question about availability and location, but could not get it to work. Tried the phone number and couldn't get that to work either. Now I'm not the brightest bulb in the box, so someone else might want to give it a shot. |

This was posted about on GTG last week. I too had no luck getting in touch with the company. If anyone finds a site that sells this line, please post a link or PM me. Thanks! |
