120? Man, that's really not bad. I might consider investing into one of these, as soon as I get myself some shelf space... haven't got enough to display all my toys as it is!

Considering the quality we're getting yes it's not bad at all imo
I guess to many Americans and Europeans(or Canadians) such price tag is peanuts

...Didn't Konig have blue eyes?

Anyway, the detail is awesome. I wish they'd do some Dr Who stuff. I recently ordered this:



Which is pretty good, but DID quality..I'd sell my grandmother for one!

That is quite reasonable, I have been corresponding with them and a U-boat commander is being discussed, I made a couple of suggestions, I'm hoping it's a goer!!
Thanks for posting this thread Castout!!

If you've been in discussions, then tell them that they have another definite buyer as soon as they put out that U-boat commander. White cap, nice pair of binoculars and a Luger, maybe an optional oilskin coat - oh yeah

For that much money, I sure hope he's anatomically correct.

I honestly don't know if that's a good thing, or a bad thing. And I sure as hell ain't gonna google it.

I know one thing, if they make a u-boot commander and don't model it on der Alte from Das Boot, I'll seriously have to consider writing them a strongly worded letter before I purchase it.

Well yeah but which one would you purchase first? Pre voyage or post voyage?

For the rest of you guys just remember: They're not dolls, they're action figures!

Hmm... as much as I like the snazzy blue uniform pre-voyage, I'm gonna have to go with about two weeks into the voyage, when the scruffy is really starting to set in. And he's always wearing that awesome leather jacket that looks like it was pinched off some poor dead RAF pilot. And stomping around soaking wet and cursing the weather.

Oh...and am I going mad, or has this particular figure taken a lot of facial structure from a certain Scottish secret agent?
