You were right. The head is from the Eisenkern Stormtroopers kit from Wargames Atlantic.
@ObscuritiesinMiniature Жыл бұрын
But where did it come from? That's the crazy part! I haven't acquired any of the WGA Eisenkern. It has to be from the original release, which is made all the more stranger as I don't think I ever had any of the basic guys- I know I had a box of the heavy Valkyr infantry or whatever they were called, which had different heads if I recall correctly.
@popburnsy3207 Жыл бұрын
@@ObscuritiesinMiniature I thought one of the Valkir heads was similar to the standard stormtrooper style head of the regular troops. Maybe the one in the video is one of those?
@alessiodecarolis Жыл бұрын
Nice box, now all we need is a supplementary sprue with enclosed helmets ODST-style, and armoured arms for hostile environments. If, as it's probabile, these minis will sell well, I hope that WGA will make others boxes, such as command/support & females ones.👍

I'm with you there. Sometimes you can see all the spots where I've glued my fingers together with super glue prior to a video. Personally, I LOVE the testors' tubes. Love the stuff. The smell, the feel, letting it ooze out... it's just not a model building experience without it. I can sit there all neat and dandy with my fancypants Tamiya brush on stuff, but gimme that good ol' 'murican style model glue any time!

If it's a Valkry, it could be mine, but I thought it would've been in an older more scifi oriented bits box, as the one I was pulling from was mostly fantasy bits.
