Good to see a manufacturer fulfilling such a niche, I've often wondered where I could get a good set of shemale prossies for a diorama.

Right. However, I got the list in from PlusModel yesterday and the two figures you refer to are only a small part of it - there is some truly innovative stuff on the list.

Comments like this have been hammered to death with the previous response to the figure Review. Bringing this up again smells of the 'nasty' towards a company which does some REALLY good material...

It's called taking the mickey. You really need to learn not to be so uptight about everything, life is way too short to take it seriously.

For the record I buy from Plusmodel and think their stuff is some of the best and I fully expect to pick up the barrels and milk cans when I next buy something. But that doesn't mean I can't have a laugh at these.

I think it's pretty funny too. To me the two of them look a bit out of porportion. The arms too long and shaped kinda wierd. The hands too big. To take this too seriously for me is like worrying about how many bolts are supposed to be on a particular vehicle and worrying that someone might critisize it if I didn't get the count right . I definately do not loose sleep over such stuff as this is supposed to be fun and not some murderous critique over evry little fart. As for these two figures ....I will not get them, not because of the subject but only because to me they look like crap but I don't fault anyone for having different tastes in figures and getting these..........Al......

I just wondered if anyone was going to use them in the proposed "Got Wood?" campaign.

I have alot of their stuff,most is exceptional in my opinion. Unfortunatly the female figures they have are lacking soorly. I hope that they get better as I can always use civilian figures for my dios.

Is this Plus Models way of giving homage to the men who served the men in WW2?

on a more serious note, YES the rest of their products are *mostly* fantastic, but this line is a miss. i would personally drop the line, and start fron scratch. OR leave it to someone else

Obviously these models replicate highly trained SS Paratroopers disguised as 'ladies of negotiable affection' as the nun disguise is too obvious

I think if you look closely the feather boas contain 'egg' grenades

Damn, the right hand on the one in purple is HUGE. It's almost big enough to cover all her... errr.. his face.

I think they should drop these female figures because they give a bad rep to their other excellent items.

Having dealt from time to time with current alleged practitioners of the suggested profession, I can honestly state that in real life they aren't much better looking, and a significant number are also men. As oddly disproportionate and unattractive as the figures are, I can name a dozen "women" who look just like them or worse.

I do believe Plusmodel should give up on the figures and focus on their other accessories, which look quite nice.

Maybe they've been watching Uma Thurman films?
