Hello everyone: I am desperately trying to find at least one box of Wargames Factory Greek Hoplites. I know they've been out of production for a whole, since Warlord bought them out, but I really want them. For some reason, I am not able to post on the Ancients Marketplace, but I thought someone here could help. I will pay a fair price plus shipping. Please PM or email me at jrwarlock(at)gmailDOTcom. Thank you for your help. Jorge |

That flying saucer is an obvious fake. Everyone knows Nazi flying saucers were painted panzer gray. I suppose it could be a "booty saucer" captured from the Poles and not repainted yet, but you'd expect the German markings to be larger. A nice job nonetheless. |

Genius. Only a true artist could go from everyday junk to bizarre conclusion like that. You can't describe what you wanted to do, just do it and hope everyone gets it. |

I believe that Die Glocke was painted the same dark green as many V-1 and V-2 rockets, and the Me-163. See these sources: link

(If Encyclopedia Britannica has a picture of it in green, I'm sure there were green ones.)

("Camouflage colors were introduced to the A-4/V-2 during the middle of 1943 … SCHEME 2 – The Geflammt (Wavy) pattern, using only three colors: Cream White, Earth Grey and Olive Green.") *****

I always thought that the Die Glocke was shaped more like a bell than a saucer. Dan

"Glocke" means "Bell" auf Deutsch. Not that I could take any of this seriously, nor was it meant to be. But what a LOVELY McGuffin for a Wierd WWII or Pulp Fiction scenario! TVAG |

There seems to be a crossed posting here. |

The trans-posting is getting out of hand. Is it me or is it happening to more posts nowadays, even though there aren't enough topics in the first page to create a traffic jam. Dan |
