The second sitting one sans cap, is that from the Torro set too ? I recognize all the other ones except that one. Looks great by the way. I think they are actually alright out of the box as well.

Hi MichaelC,

Yes he is also part of the Torro set, but seems to be harder to find than the others. He is marketed as the radio operator. I have seen a few on eBay, but they tend to go for near retail when they come up. Welsh Dragon and rctank.de both stock them and of course Torro do too.

I would have to agree with you, these are some of the best mass produced figures I have come across. They are not too bad at all straight from the box. I just wanted a little more variety in the uniforms, and I really enjoy painting figures. 8O 8O :D

Thanks tiger tiger, great to have these figures appreciated.

I bit the bullet in the end and went to a retailer for the new figure. The last one I bid on on eBay went over the price I paid for this one with nearly 2 days left on the auction. I have not come across one yet with a buy it now price.

Still worth it, even at retail these are great figures.
