Haven't seen these before from MB. Cowboys & Indians? Are these in the 1/24 series?

I just can't shake the idea of using these in a quirky "Gulliver's Travels" diorama with my 1/700 ships.

Great news, will get both. What next? Maybe Amazons? Keeping my fingers crossed!

I don't like MB's practice of using real (live) models as the box art. They should make the disclaimer "Contents not exactly as pictured"!

The box art pictures are realistic drawings, not photographs.

First thing that came to mind was that scene in "Apocalypse Now," with the Playboy Playmates getting mobbed on stage by all those GI's.

Apocalypse Now....exactly my thought!
Would make a nice scene: these ladies together with Revells 1/24 Huey

Marshal "Jessie" reminds me more of the stripper played by Jessica Alba in the movie "Sin City".

OK. I stand corrected. But they're still not the actual product.

Sorry, I don't want to hijack this thread, but there are more 1/24 female figures in progress (the ones working on the car).

I like the one in the blue shorts leaning under the hood; she seems handy with a tool.

I knew a female plumber who was handy with the ball and cock mechanism.
