Toy soldier held captive !!! gwen666 February 2 2005, 13:38:55 UTC
I think the best clue is that his own weapon (M4 with foregrip) is being held to his head, whilst most Iraqis would be more comfortable wielding an AK-47. How did they capture a soldier with special forces equipment without getting his uniform dirty ? Why haven't they removed his smoke grenades from his jacket ? Why does his vest have such distinctive piping ?

My brother collects these action figures, they give me the creeps. They look realistic but their body posture is always uncomfortable.

Are they life-sized figures?

No, they are slightly larger than a Barbie Doll, about twelve inches tall. Their uniforms are so well researched and crafted they could be considered works of art.
You should spend more time in toy shops.

yeah...that was the other thing. I think the weapon looks more fake than the soldier
