MasterBox has three fantastic figure offering coming up for release in November 2012. Now one of these sets is something that we need more of in injection moulded plastic and the other two item I never would have believed if they had not been sent to me direct from the manufacturer.

Masterbox is definitely the company with the most creative injection molded figures. I can only dream of what Keiichi Aoki would do with those figures.

And another hit to the wallet. I love these dioramas in a box, the tankmen playing soccer is a perfect idea and will really add some character. The other sets are wonderful too.

These are the salad days my friends. . .

As I said in the news report I have to get hold of these figure sets as the females look like females and are always handy to have at ready hand. The diorama sets are just brilliant and offers a lot of display possiblities such as POWs, in camp, or in the field. How long before we see the first diorama?

MB does it again. Each release is better thn the last! DML needs a good shot of MB's imagination and innovation!! And their sculpting is also better in each release.

I have to concur! All three sets are fantastic and I love the GI in the Swing cap.. about time!

The football players are terrific and can be used in a lot of scenes

The ladies? Welllllllll, Cherche la femme, right?

Nice Masterbox.....but come on fellas we need to get back to the real deal and that is some British Airborne troops in Arnhem slugging it out with SS troopers in a 'Hand to Hand combat'....US Rangers at Point Du Hoc... Aussie Diggers at Kokoda mixing it up with the Japs....oh where does it stop! :-)

The lighting was just right to show off the great sculpting in all of these new outstanding sets. This opens up all kinds of possibilities for dios and conversions. The boxers can be altered to be hard working dudes serving artillery pieces or digging earthworks,etc but then I could go on and on. Superb new figgies and I must say,some of the box art from MB is truly wonderful.
Those ladies are top of the line and the fashion is spot on. They could be used for any country in Europe or the USA in fact.
