Need an opinion....

Post by Stakeout09 »

Hi Guys and Gals out there,

Need a bit of advice please. I'm beginning to try out one or two customs for the various forces and have found a couple of sites that could potentially help me (and you) to add extras such as weapons and other vehicles whice we could all tweak to what we specifically need.

If you Google (or other search engine) "Elite force world peacekeepers toys" then there are one or two items that are not out of place in the BFTB world depending on what you need and they are pretty reasonably priced as well. I have picked up a couple of decent items and will probably get more in the future.

The other one I have no experience about and so would like to ask for some help and advice. I'm after some weapons and other bits and bobs and have stumbled upon Marauders.com who seem to offer some great items. Has anyone used this company before and what do they think of them?

I'm sorry if some of you out there are regular users of these companies but as a novice I don't want to screw up by mistake when threr is so much information I can glean from the experts (yourselves)

Thanks in advance

Hello & welcome to our world..
I've only used Marauders once myself & can't speak for others, but I was very happy with their service & items, they even sent me a nice e-mail saying that, due to problems my order may be delayed & had added a couple of extra items free of charge..even with the delay my parcel arrived in a little over a week. :-)

I can also recommend Reprolabels.com to any Transformers or Zoids collectors as well.

Totally recommend Marauders, if they are still offering the postage deal, can`t go wrong.

Marauder are good quality the world peacekeeper figures aren't too bad but their rubber guns are a nightmare to get out intact from packaging and are mostly warped

G'day mate, a welcome. I picked up some marauders guns with a few Cobra Troops I won on evilbay. The weapons are of the brittle plastic variety but the scaling is great. Gave an MP5 to a Z trooper and it looks awesome, Crazylegs looks fantastic with the MP5 hanging from the roof too. It was a tough choice, I'll definitely have to get more from Marauders.

The elite force stuff isn't scaled correctly. I bought a guy about 2 weeks ago for $4au, striped him for the guns and gave him to my young feller. They are OK, but not a patch on Marauders.

So another vote for Marauders from me.

To all,

Thanks for your advice and help on this matter - certainly looks like I can shop with confidence and hopefully create some bad-ass customsin the future.
