Here are some companions for the Mysterious Metal Headed-Nazi(I think that name is gonna catch on). These are the She-Wolves from Pulp Figures.

This picture reminds me of the time in high school when a buddy of mine wanted to go on a date with this girl but she wouldn't go out with him unless he found a date for her best friend with the "good personality" who was "a lot of fun". Needless to say I ended up with the girl on the right.....oh but neither of those girls were part of the SS.

I do like the painting (esp the rifle toting 'best friend') and love the robotic Hitler but I have always had a problem with the idea of Hitler / SS / Gestapo type figures for pulp games (though love the Indy films). Maybe it comes from watching the World at War series as a youngster?
ReplyDeleteIt strange as I used to field German armies at 1/72 and 1/285 scale - maybe its too personal at 25mm?
Can I ask where the robotic Hitler came from?
The Robot Hitler is from the Superfigs line that you can get from Old Glory. I think the figure is called "The Head". It comes with two head options.
ReplyDeleteI get what you mean about Nazis in pulp. I think it's a personal preference I guess. I think these are fun villians for an "Indy" type scenarios or for the US Rocket Corps though.
