Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
So many but but a few really standout especially those that are no longer available or just a pile of flash.
Revell: Has to be the WW2 the German horse artllery (a long with HaT German WW1/2 horse pulled waggons). Its an out standing set and gives an accurate reprentation of how much the Third reich armies used horse power. The other was their WW1 German set.
Strelet: Two more artilley sets the 9.2" ad the Morse. I still think the figures of the senior staff officier and one of the privates are the best figures Strelet produced especially as they have the ring of "Blackadder IV" about them!
HaT - their best was yet to come the BEF British set - sadly never to appear ....... now Strelets as Shakespeare said " once more into the breach " you could show them how to produce a subject that should never have been ignored!
Airfix: Always had a soft spot for their French WW1 troops - the "experts" rubbish them but they have fond memories along with the inaccurate MkI male tank.
* Let me say Thank You! to Strelets for producing such a great French Foreign Legion Range. I just love Beau Geste and also the Indo Chine themes.
* Further, Thank You! to Orion for producing such nice WWII Tank Personnel sets. All full-bodies (no half bodies) and nice poses. (1) British Winter Crew, (2) German Panzer Crew. All have unbelievable details and, and, and, for me - each box has 3-5 standing poses that will fit right into the turret's hatches. Thank you, again Orion. Ali Express out of China sells quite a few tanks pre-painted, snap together (good enough for the girls I go with) and all have working turret hatches, inexpensive, so, Orion's sets work great! I'm a toy soldier collector first; not vehicles but building my modest tank with crews collection is a blast and affordable.
* I won't forget to say Thank You! to RedBox for their Boxer Rebellion Range. Always a joy to pull out and play 55 Days at Peking DVD in the background - just to be a kid again.
This just touches the tip of the iceberg, so let me say here - A Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!
Godspeed to Strelets, all producers, their families, pets and friends :smile: :smile_cat: :santa: :dog: :christmas_tree: :earth_americas: :earth_africa: :earth_asia:
