Japanese Junk
My friend Billy Hill sent me these figures.
They are WWII Japanese clones of 1/32nd scale Airfix figures, but in 1/72nd scale.
They are cheapo dollar store type figures, mis-molded, and filled with flash.
So every day after dinner I spend a few minutes and trimmed flash off of at least one.
There are more than just these few, I did one pose at a time. After trimming the same pose a couple times I learned the best techniques to remove the flash and adjust the mis-molding. It makes doing the rest of them that much faster.
The Japanese soldiers confront a giant prehistoric reptile; as usual.

These look a little different than the usual airfix Japanese knock-offs. They have a bigger and flatter base. Do you know any more about where they came from? Thank you mr. Mike have a good day
Looks like they awoke another sleeping giant.
Gary Panter I got them from a friend and I don't know ether when or where he got them.
They had a lot of flash on them, but the bases were nice and big.

tsold, apparently that's a continuing problem for them.
