BBI Elite Force WW2 Weapons Sets & Red Devil

















I got lucky and was able to buy these from a fellow collector. The highlights from the set for me were the M3 grease gun, the BAR rifle and the Thompson submachine gun. I'll be using these for a G.I. Joe project I have going on. (click the picture for a bigger version)
Along with the weapons sets, I also got a British paratrooper. one of the famous Red Devils known for their activities at Arnhem and Monte Cassino. He comes fitted out ready to jump and has his chute, gun sack and a choice of a jump helmet or a beret. I've yet to open the blister and see if the chute rig is molded onto his Denison smock or if it's removable. I hope it is.

You can see a model of a Red Devil paratrooper assembled and painted by me here and here.

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!

Custom ARAH Duke

Here's another repainted Duke with some new ammo packs made in putty. This is a custom painted 1993 Battle Corps Battle Commander Duke. One of my early experiments with epoxy putty. I have another version of this figure on the workbench so expect to see it soon here too.
