Review of the custom Frenchman Action Figure, created for Doug LeTourenau.
I still have plenty of 21st century toys items that I bought from Toys R Us, they made sooooo many things that no other toy company has made yet, stuff like the stoner 63, or the navy seal m60, or the XM148 Grenade launcher, or the Grizzly Big Boar 50 cal sniper rifle, or my favorite the china lake grenade launcher. Literally so many weapons that no one else has made since they made them.
Hey Casual Collector…. Since You Tube doesn’t have DM’s anymore I dropped you a note on the old OSW forum….
The level of detail that went into this is simply amazing.
That’s awesome
These look amazing
Great figures❤
This is amazing 🤩 🤯
Whoever did this YOU ARE AN AMERICAN.
Great video❤
WHERE DID U GET RPD FROM,WOULD LIKE TO GET ONE ??
Soldier Story makes a very nice one that’s to their usual standards. This one was a resin kit that I got from a former member of the 21C design team. Sadly, he doesn’t sell them anymore.
Very nice 😊
awesome!
WOW!!!
awesome!!
WOW!!
awesome team. Bravo!!
Why did the first guy use a ww2 German helmet?
It was something Nick Brokhausen got from his Uncle Otto. He preferred to wear it instead of the US M1 on some heavy missions and loaned it out to other folks, including Eldon Bargewell. There’s a few photos of him wearing it if you Google him.
Very interesting kit for this operation, a treat to see it in 1/6 form. I enjoyed Osprey's Raid title on Eagle Claw.
Thanks for keeping there memories alike.. Heros Forever
Alot of seals wore Levi's so you were on point with that
Awesome really amazing
Will you also review the MACV SOG and LRRP figures by this brand in the future?
I’ll probably review the second MACVSOG figure (the Jerry Shriver video doubles as my review of the first). I think the LRRP is an excellent figure, but SOG is my bread and butter, it’s got more going on that I like.
@@fossildude181 also I’m curious will you kitbash this figure by adding and modify some of the accessories to make it more accurate?
@@randycheow4268 Nah, if you check my history, I already did a few Eagle Claw assaulters already (I included one of those jackets in this video). That said, I have been helping the guy the figure is based off of to upgrade the one he’s got.
thanks for the video 👍🏻 to me 21st century allways be the greatest company, awesome 1/6 stuff!!!
I posted a link to this video on a couple private FB sites for SOG folks and families. They liked it. B-)
Hi I managed to find a photo of him where he has the helmet on his head
What's with the German helmet,???
Nick Brokhausen took the helmet with him to Vietnam. There’s photos of him wearing it and a great shot of Eldon Bargewell in it.
Thanks for the info 👍
You forgot to give each of them an Agent, movie deal, and book writing table, since Each SEAL is now required to write a tell all novel & advise on a hollywood motion picture giving away all of their tactics. But awesome figures on your end 👍👍👍
Did you work for 21st centurty toys,?
Before my time. I’ve never been employed by a toy company, I just have a great deal of enthusiasm for the work others have done.
This is a very nice SEAL team, one of the best ones I've seen.The navy seals would also wear jeans because they also weren't as sloshy in water than the the erdl pants making them popular. Another interesting note is that most SEALs would only have 1 canteen compared to other special teams because their missions would only be a couple hours long. Not to say this set is bad, because it is incredible but I thought those are some interesting things to note.
That bit on the pants is good tradecraft. Hadn’t heard the bit about the canteens though, that makes sense if they’re just doing raids. As a follow-up, any other notes for gear?
@fossildude181 sorry for the late reply but I don't think they wore buttpacks on missions either. If you want a very detailed description on the basic web setups and uniforms there is a militaria forum I frequent called U.S. militaria forum. If you go there and search Vietnam navy seal impression the first thread that appears on it goes in depth on the basic setups they would have and there is an expert ( user named SPIKE) who gives alot of good information. I would post the link to it but for some reason youtube isn't allowing me to post the reply with it. Just a suggestion if you want more information on them.
Awesome team! Wish I had got my hands on one of those Toy Soldier flotation jackets back in the day
God Bless you for keeping our heroes alive ,God Bless SGTM Echeverria , in 2 weeks in Temecula CA iam meeting with some of the Hmong who survived the war from Ranger Class 1 & 2 .
I Wish my friends were alive to enjoy your great work some of my friends were "Force Reacon" or " SOG" , SGT Pacheco SPF credited whit taking out 74 vietcong in one day he died 2021 in Tijuana BCN Mexico RIP.
Whit all due respect a million thanks for your great work and for giving a voice to all those great Heroes since 1976 I started to volunteer in many ways whit the Vietnam War Veterans Americans ,Vietnamese ,Hmongs ,Laotian and Cambodians in the San Diego and Temecula CA area I am now part of the Vietnamese and Hmong community I had the honor to be part of the security team of "General Van Pao" and the family of the son of the king of Laos, in West Minster CA Vietnamese town there is a Vietnamese gentleman who is running a Vietnam War museum full of model kits all of the Vietnam War, and there is a lady "Van Kim" who has a show every Sunday night to remember the Vietnam War Veterans she is on You Tube , a million thanks for your great work sincerely Jose Silva from San Diego CA .
Very nice figure 😊
Very very kool!
I saw the thumbnail at a glance and I thought I was seeing a photo. Not bad.
Well done mate great detail ,
You need to do a seal team from the same time period! That would be cool
I’ve actually got six-man team (68-69) built from a few years back. Did some novel stuff, like a bunch of the early model float coats and a Colt 607. I might dig it up for a video in the future.
Pretty awesome. It’s give a real perspective to what these guys looked like back then. The old grainy pictures are great, but they’re not very good quality. These are very lifelike in scale, and in likeness. Great job, thanks for sharing it.
Awesome work dude so freaking cool!!! What amazing art 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sadly, he was lost going after the NVA HQ near mermot Cambodia 4/69... He probably would not have done well during peactime. He was a war time warrior... Not sure how i feel about yall making a actionfigure of him, but i guess it keeps his legacy alive.
I understand your concern, and I’ll try to address it. These are made as tributes to these men and, where possible, I try to talk to the individuals involved before I make a piece based off of them - to make sure I’ve got their approval and that it’s a good representation. One of these pieces is currently in the museum 5th Group runs and a Shriver for their SOG exhibit is ironically one of the pieces they’ve expressed interest in.
Most excellent figure check out the Praesidus Recon Mac V Sog homage watch its amazing
It's Predator! That was truly amazing footage
Is it just me? Or the Jungle boots OD Green is WAY to bright? Also. very proud of those Jackets. :D
i think the lack of body armour is probably my biggest nitpick with this figure, there doesn't seem to be any 1/6 piece that looks like the vests visible in the photos so that would have been nice
I can definitely understand that. I actually gave them a pass for the simple reason that the figure’s already fairly bulky with an unloaded jacket and a fully loaded assault vest.
i'm sure i have seen curved mags in the photos of gear laying on the ground at the airport
Credit where credit’s due, I think I located the reference photo you’re citing and I’ll concede the error. I’ll update the video tonight to remove the offending section.
@@fossildude181 just want to say thank you for your videos, they have inspired me to break out my old boxes of 1/6 gear and start kitbashing some Vietnam and 80s era figures again!
We appreciate the reference to our organization.
Thanks for the shout out. We've featured Operations Thunderhead, Urgent Fury, Kingpin, Eagle Claw and Acid Gambit at our Whiskey & War Stories™ events. On April 13th, 2024 we'll be covering Operation Lightning Dawn.
I’d be happy to talk with you guys about doing a piece for one of your charity events in the future if you’d be interested.
@@fossildude181 That would be great. We already know what we're doing next year and I think you'll like that one.
@@SilentWarriorFoundationI dropped you guys a line on your Facebook. Let me know what you guys would be interested in and I’ll see what I can do.
This is pretty cool! What a great looking project!
