Personally I quite enjoyed putting together and painting Warlord's US Airborne. I like animated miniatures with dynamic poses. |

Warlord if you like multi-pose options, conversion possibilities and flexibility with its plastic kit. Offensive miniatures if you like "non-heroic scale" 28mm. Artizan if you like metal "heroic scale" minis. The only drawback is that many of the helmets are rather plain and uncluttered. |

The Perry Brothers have a great line of paratroopers. Offensive are alright but their proportions are wacky. The torsos are way too long for their smaller legs. |

Offensive are alright but their proportions are wacky. The torsos are way too long for their smaller legs. Not to mention the weapons are really poorly modelled. BTW: Perry only do German paratroopers! |

I went with Artizan some Crusade added in for my paras, I like how the bigger figures look and most of my W.W. II stuff is the same. But wow, do those figures at Offensive Miniatures look good. I haven't seen the Victory Force US Para figures, but I've seen their other stuff, I have a bunch of the Star Trek type figures, so I am sure they are very good. Didn't know Perry had paras, I'll go look right now. |
