    theyre 1/72 scale , 3D printed . The seller also offers them in various other scales right up to 1/24. These cost me £8.49 inc postage . Each figure comes in a printed protective cage , they just need careful cutting off the supports . The detail is amazing for the scale , im chuffed to bits with them. Ive got a 1/72 Spitfire in the stash so im hoping to do a little vignette with them sometime [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1221394[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1221395[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1221396[/ATTACH]
    Those are really rather special, and shows what can be done with 3d prints. Interesting with the cage build, rather than simply use the usual printing frame. Extra protection for posting is a good though there

      We’re not even allowed airsoft ones here in the Netherlands, except by being a member of the one officially recognised airsoft players’ society and using it in their events only.
      It has a suppressor fitted making it look longer, once removed its a M4.

      I would like to venture out to different places and venues trying new things but it can get expensive... but who knows?!

                I meant the barrel length without the suppresser But since, on the real thing, the markings are stamped on the lower receiver while the barrel is part of the upper, it would be trivial to make a weapon with a long barrel, so effectively an M16, but marked “M4”.

                            Waiting for me when I got back to the ranch. Rather stupidly I bought two sets of decals. Might put them in the sales section if I can’t return them the Hannants.

                              I take it the UK hasn’t ditched the smarter parts of EU legislation yet, such as the right to return anything bought through the mail within 14 days of receipt without having to supply a reason?

                                We’ve had the distance selling regulations and cooling off period for several years here and still have them. The value of the decal sheet is so low it may not be worth the price of a return postage label.
