God awful sculpts though...acutally appalling sculpts, really static no energy at all.

That's a big fat Niet from me!  ;)

They're not *that* bad. Just a bit too scifi and not retro enough for me to fit into WW2 era.

I think vyper is right there is no real motion in the poses.

But quite a good deal of the urban mammoth stuff could work well for wwwII

I'm sure I've seen they're models maybe papa midnights done some.

Not sure though  :-I

"They" are all same figure from different angles, aren't they?

But I agree with the consensus, not very exciting, a bit static, and far too over the top in terms of styling.

Nicely painted though.
