Nice figs.  The fig on the right in the top pic would make a great Legate but I don't have time to learn German and the site doesn't have a translator so I will keep what I am currently using.

  :o  Update   :o

Finally got to the figs and figured out enough to know that they want about 6 bucks each (8 Euros for 2 figs). At that rate it would cost about 1oo bucks to do 1 large Legate Squad - I think I'll pass.

The dollar is pretty weak at the moment which I guess sucks for Americans who like imported goods. It is great for people like me who buy lots of books and stuff from the US.  :( :)

Sooooo.........It would be cheaper for you to come to Talamania II than for us to bring Talamania II to you then?

I smell a warzone futures speculation prospectus (and other stock terms of which I have no clue).
If sing, sang, and sung, sink, sank, and sunk, and drink, drank, and drunk, how is it that it isn't bring, brang, and brung, think, thank and thunk, and ding, dang, and dung?

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

Teutonische Sturmpioniere  ??? ???  oh my..


that is too much gaslight-style for me..


the figs are nice, of course, but they donīt have the WZ smell. itīs more like a "cuthulu/differentation maschine-crossover (oh, i see he calls them "Pulp Prussians")

I agree.  These guys are more Austria-Hungary than WWI. 
VeezCon products:  Not as good as if they had been actually produced by a real figure company, but better than using your shoe to proxy with...sort of!

Judging from their weaponry, I'd say they are meant to be Imperial guardos from that waros hammeros game I have heard so much about...  :D
Nice models, but I don't get the real Bauhaus vibes from them.
