They're also a great source of equipment for older sets of figures. The quality here is much better than anything previously achieved in injection-moulded plastic. It could be argued that the figures themselvs are over-engineered, though - and it's not too difficult to drill out rifle barrels in 1/35, or hollow out sleeves with the tip of a No.11 blade. I think that it might be better to use a Pritt stick to attach the etched badges, buckles and medals - CA would obscure the detail.
In the UK, the Korsun pocket set works out at less than $US 3.00 per figure, which has to be stunning value for near resin-quality. I only wish that Dragon would do some Gen-2 figures in non-combat poses - after all, soldiers spend nearly all their time just hanging around, not fighting.
Cheers,
Chris.
Cute and cuddly, boys, cute and cuddly!
