The sculptor needs a girlfriend OR has a serious nurse fetish Always nice to see something other than pointing Nazis or Refugees in 1:35 scale. Just like Masterbox with their 1:24 (and sometimes 1:35) pinup series but with a moder modern style (The MB Pinups are 1940s/50s, the "Tank Stop" girls are maybe early 60s)

Hi, Maki! THANKS!!! I'm sure that we'll have mixed opinions on this site about THESE little gals, too. IMO, they're CUTE, and they DO have their uses among Figure modellers, such as myself. Girls and women can be a bit more challenging to model than men, so I, personally speaking, can appreciate them. These are VERY NICELY rendered, and quite properly proportioned. I can see myself picking a few of these little sweeties up!!! (The pun IS intended!)

They looks a lot more feminine than the last pin-up set they did.

Pretty but pretty pointless.

Between some of the figures, Preises "german cops" (Green or Blue versions available) and DioParks Mercedes (Police) one can easily do a "control of the hookers" scene. ARII has a 1:32 "Porsche 911" out (Judging by their "Käfer" it is 1:35 actually) that would fit under the nurse doing a "car show". And the bike lady and some workers allows one to play the pushbike song... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeHCq6fFkNo

That nurse looks a little mean! "Time for your enema!"

No, I can see more than a few scenarios for these little Figurines, being a Figure modeller, myself. "Pointless" is your opinion, and not necessarily everyone else'... If you don't like them, don't buy them. Simple as that...
