Found some 1/32nd army figures at Walmart on sale
. Thought they would look good on my Transportation Corps Tank car(I was in the TC). Just need to trim off the brass pieces that I used to attach them to the car.

Atomic test site maybe?



Pre or Post detonation???

Just remember to put a guy in a fedora with a bullwhip stepping out of an old refrigerator somewhere in the scene.





Pre AND Post... animate it!
A "Test" every time the train leaves the area.

I found some 'Indiana Jones' figures at Wally World in the sale rack-2 for $5 I think, a little large, but at a distance...... They have movable arms, heads, hands, and very good detail. I'm curious though, for you experienced guys, why aren't there any really detailed figures in G scale? I've looked at figures on eBay, they want $5 shipping and $5 for a figure that, INHO, looks cartoonish, at best. Actually, as a long time RC airplane guy, the same has been true for supposedly 'scale' pilots. They want a small fortune for junk! I basically build aircraft in 1/6th to 1/8th scale and buy the action figures, like Dragon, off eBay for less than $10...incredible detai, movable limbs, etc.l! Am I missing something here? Maybe there's some source for reasonably priced, detailed, stuff I just haven't found. I am, after all, new in this Largescale arena!
