I am often the butt of jokes from my friends, because I have a small collection of WWII 1/6 action figures. Am I obsessed?
Maybe but not as much as this guy!

ohh I like those, would be great to have a resource like that when and if doing realistic painting. Too bad there were not any evening shots.
thanks for posting |

Dunno - but my guess it was surely a labor of love. There's lot more cool stuff if you poke around the site root.

Hey Tom-
Do you know how accurately they scale these things? I mean, do they go so far as to use a higher thread-count fabric so the clothes fold more accurately to scale? |

Jimmy - not really sure. Some of the clothing varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Dragon Models Lmt tends to be the leader with the most detailed, but the fabric still seems thick, bulky to me. Blue Box collectible series seem bulkier.
But the weapons details are very cool - clips, working bolt actions, etc.
