I received my order from Rob at Eureka USA today, top notch service. Thanks Rob.

Here they are on a 1" grid.
The casts are clean with minimal, if any flash.

The kneeling pose is not a BAR gunner, but a M1 Carbine.

I'm sorry for the crummy pics.

The Eureka girls are tad thinner, but work well for me.

You get two of each pose in the pack for a total of 10 minis.
Enjoy!

where are these on the Eureka Site? I cannot find them on either the original or the USA site.

I am guessing they are new and are not for general release?

If you want these now email Nic at Eureka. They probably won't be up on the website for another six months.

I emailed Rob at Eureka USA about these using the contact info on the website, as I'm in the US. He replied with availability info and the rest is history.

You might want to look at the discussion about these here;

Uh… rocketeer? I don't see no stinkin' rockets

Really do they come with a rocket pack? Does it look like the one from The Rocketeer movie? Do the ones in helmet have a Rocketeer sytle helmet with rudder on top?

I wish someone would do the German rocket troops from the movie? Great looking Pulp, with a Capital P, rocket pack. So it explodes, you look devine Darlink!

Oh, forgot to say these look fantastic

The rocket pack is shown in the second pic, upper left.
Ten are included so you can put one on each fig if you like.

There is a helmeted version but I dont know what the helm looks like.

Here is my take on a classic Rocketess;

So one M1. And the other four are armed with Tammy guns?

Amalric08 Feb 2014 7:15 p.m. PST

Yes, though one is armed with a tommygun and a mean looking wrench.

Amazing what an email or phone inquiry can do if you can't find something on the website

Generally good-ish figures but what is the top row, second from right doing?
Getting ready to try out for the Radio City Rockettes?

Happy Little Trees08 Feb 2014 8:33 p.m. PST

I think that's Launch position.

@Almaric-They're carrying Tammy guns, cause theys wimmin.

I wonder how long those blouses stay buttoned when flying at speed?
I like them though as they will work as backup for my Pulp Rocketeers.

I wonder how long those blouses stay buttoned when flying at speed?

Before or after the rockets incinerate the blouses and the rest of the uniform? Once those rockets ignite, I would imagine those girls would have hot bottoms for sure.
