WW2 BATTLE OF THE BULGE (Stop Motion Review) Episode 22

[@Glitchy_King1234]

It's great to see armymen haven't been forgotten. My childhood lives on.

[@OneLastCrusader]

I'm a grown man with adult kids, and I'd still unbox that set and play on the floor with it. I'm not even joking. That's cool. 👍🏻

[@yikes5790]

Same here expect mine our the Marx battleground sets my first set sears warp around box Christmas 1963.

[@OneLastCrusader]

@yikes5790 I still have the Civil War set, maybe by Marx, I used Linkin Logs to build forts and stuff. I played with these types of sets a lot, my dad would find them and add to my collection.

[@fenrir7878]

Yea me too. I'd have to sit on a yoga mat and wear knee pads though. Getting old lol

[@gbonkers666]

Me too!

[@Sumschmuck]

Remember: it's not playing with toys. It's simulating historical conflicts with miniature figurines

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@@Sumschmuck you’re right I call them my “actors” not toys.

[@fenrir7878]

Yes exactly. We are doing RESEARCH "Pew pew pew"

[@gbonkers666]

Its re-fighting and re-enacting historial battles to plan for future ones...at the army war "college" If Tom Clancy can play games to outline his novels (red october and red storm rising) why can't we?

[@danielrathbun8380]

Seeing those old playsets is fantastic. I grew up scouring the likes of Kidde City, Toys R Us, Kay-Bee Toys, Karl's Toys and of course the toy aisles of Woolworth's etc looking for those. I can't remember how many times did I have to get advances on my allowance to buy a set like this?

[@dr.migilitoloveless2385]

Looks like the great toy sets I remember as a kid in the 1960s

[@Aegelis]

Stop-motion effects with sounds were awesome! Thank you for this, a whole lot of fun to see the action.

[@StrangeScaryNewEngland]

You know what's really weird? About 5 days ago, I thought to myself "Man, I miss those old, green, plastic army men from when I was a kid." and am not ashamed to say that I was thinking about ordering a bag and then just setting them up on my shelves and whatnot (and probably play with them for a few minutes first). Now, your video pops up for NO reason. I think that's a sign that this man in his thirties should get some. Lmao. That is an awesome set you have as well! Subscribed. Oh, and one more thing. I recently found a PS1 emulator and the first thing I did was find and download all of the Army Men series PS1 games. I was in heaven that night! LOL

[@minhkhoaluong25]

This set is an all-you-can-eat buffet. Pricey but worth the money. I painted some of those US infantry. Very nice sculpts they have.

[@elairem4653]

So you’re telling me these hella soldiers came out two days ago? Hell Yeah!

[@gbonkers666]

I still remember the old one from the 1980s...

[@captaincobratgaming718]

That medic animation was smooth as heck!

[@cb3391]

This set could be the sole WW2 source for a stop motion series

[@Morrison09]

Finally I have been wating for a review this came out last month

[@Gabriel_Army_men]

Nice figures! I really liked the armored vehicles

[@StopMotionWar]

Olha você por aqui

[@Gabriel_Army_men]

@StopMotionWar sim kkk

[@noah-gs8tl]

nice video i really loved the way BMC made their figures better.Nice video as always dude

[@plaguedoctor1173]

They are all from CTS. All the vehicles, accessories, and figures were produced and have been produced by CTS for like 2 decades.

[@plaguedoctor1173]

Nothing in this set was designed by BMC

[@guachitamichoacana]

Coolest army men set ever!

[@matthewcaughey8898]

I’ll say this, they got the issuance of sidearms correct. US GI’s typically didn’t get a sidearm unless they were in a position where they couldn’t really carry a rifle. The M-1 carbine was often issued in lieu of a pistol. It was really popular with Non commissioned officers and airborne infantry. Though most vehicle crews carried pistols as did machine gun crews. On the German side, sidearms were usually carried by just about anyone but the basic infantrymen. However both sides frequently used captured pistols

[@arthurreyes2632]

Cool set. First I thought about was that I would like to paint them all.

[@genek8630]

The vehicles in the set look almost as good, if not better, than some of the model tank kits you could buy in the 60's and early 70's.

[@DaRealGeniwerman1156]

I can see BMC has improved their figures by a lot. The figures in the Omaha beach set are so ugly and skinny

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@@DaRealGeniwerman1156 yah those guys were not so good compared to these

[@berlin_actual]

They’ve recasted the poses from other brands I believe, similar with what they did for the BMC playset

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@ yah companies like CTS, MPC, Marx, and King & Country

[@berlin_actual]

@ honestly it’s for the better that way, the figures are nicer and we can still get em formatted in those classic “playset” style products

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@ I agree

[@benerval7]

Decent looking set. I really like how you compare these with the classic US Soldiers!

[@user-tf9fh4sy4c]

The facial expressions are priceless,they actually look like people from the 1940s or possibly Orcs.

[@AlternityGM]

Nice review. I ordered that Battle of Bulge set and just got the Saipan Pacific Theater set. The new figure and vehicles appear to be based in the Classic Toy Soldier sets that BMC must have acquired the molds. They look great. I can add this Bulge set to BMC’s D-Day set and add the Saipan set to the BMC’s Iwo Jima set to make both sets even larger. Battle sets like the old Marx toy soldier sets are great fun.

[@cb3391]

Can't wait to see a feature using this set..😁👍

[@yourboyJboy1]

Great Video. Stop motion was nice thought the vehicles were cool.

[@uranusimploding9830]

N I C E ........I've been building my Tan vs. Green armies for about 10 years now ......Tim Mee , BMC, CTS ........I like the Desert War stuff, but have a "small" contingent of GREY ( and a BUNCH of old grey Airfix Germans from Ebay ) ........ this set is a good beginning to having fun!

[@frankschuler2867]

That's the battle where my Grandpa was captured and subsequently thrown into a concentration camp for the rest of the war. He was a medic in the 326th Medical Company in the 101st Airborne Division. John Garnich. He hated German Shepherds the rest of his life!

[@FraserMitchell-k4j]

Great presentation. I wish you had painted everything. That would really make the entire box and its contents come alive. Still nice job. Love to see more.

[@localh]

I also have a huge collection of army men's scale 1/72 from early 70s to now.

[@TristinRoberts-b7x]

Just bought one,can't wait. You should do one on the bmc cts Japanese playset

[@viperstudios8257]

This one set has like 5 sets of army men sets and like 5 tanks who would not want this?

[@ArmyStopmotions]

Mine is on the way, my Christmas present to myself lol.

[@theshooternamedflynn]

I have been thinking about this set for the past few weeks. Lo and behold you do a review 😂 the universe is telling me to get it

[@theshooternamedflynn]

I kinda love how the 1/38 Shermans of this set look though. Yes it sucks on the realism and scaling part, but for the casual toy soldier collector the fact that they are sized and match the timmee pattons is nice! Makes them not stand out so much in a green tank squad

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@@theshooternamedflynn that is true I wish the half track was at least 1/32 just like the Hanomag.

[@gbonkers666]

I still want that Guns of Navorene playset!

[@TheSaturnV]

Good timing, we're about 6 days away from the anniversary of The Battle of the Bulge. The US figures are actually correct for this battle, since the real troops didn't have proper winter clothing either. 😥

[@yikes5790]

What would have been cool they had different tank models like the German tanks instead of 3 shermans one a M10 tank destroyer , one Sherman , one M36 Jackson tank and one two and half ton cargo truck with tow for the 105 howitzer that came with the set and one Jeep.

[@JaydynCompton]

THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS

[@Orange90-g3c]

The panzer tank turret with the longer barrel should be able to have a machine-gun in that hole on the hatch. You can flip over the tank to find the machine-gun.

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@Orange90-g3c yup you’re right

[@tinman3586]

You would think now days with advanced 3D printing techniques, you could get all soldiers and equipment to scale with each other.

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@@tinman3586 it’s still a little tricky to get real world models turned into a digital model. Using photogrammetry or expensive scanners does an okay job at creating a digital version but it’s still not as clean as making physical molds of existing items.

[@CharlesGabrielleVidanes-xt3ww]

I heard a history of battle of bulge before back in the war 😯

[@captaincobratgaming718]

13:41, put them in a bowl of hot water for a while and then put them in cold water for just a tiny bit, that should help!

[@ArmyStopmotions]

@@Journeyman107 yah those poses look weird

This is a great set ! Its comparable to the marx battleground sets back in the 60s.

[@ArmyStopmotions]

[@justisheitz1038]

@@ArmyStopmotions I mean a legitimate set that also has figures still in their harness with a parachute. The problem with Airfix and Mars is they seem to focus more heavily on the European airborne units I want to see more American units, they also seem very fragile compared to BMC and Tim Mee

@ BMC has some Marx figures that are paratroopers

Nice video but one criticism. In the segment where you compare tanks and halftracks side by side, you keep shifting scenes SO quickly that it's impossible for your eyes to even take in what you're looking at. SLOW IT DOWN. Give us a chance to LOOK at what you are showing.
