Miniatures

I found this site while looking and thought that people might find items of interest. The Lugers are listed as "Lugar". When you do a search don't forget to look at this common misspelling!

There are numerous varieties of miniature German weapons being offered. I have no connection with the seller and have not seen any of his goods.

From what I can tell, These seem to be similar to the 12 inch action figure weapons (GI Joe or Action Man) They are way over priced if they are, but, still they are very nice minatures.

They look like EXCELLENT VALUES EVEN IF THEY ARE CONSIDERED OVERPRICED BY SOME!!!!

I'm getting @ Least one of each for my "Miniatures" collection!

Finko, Is there a Toys-R-Us store near you? If there is stop by there and look at their 12 inch Action man section. I am sure you will find these same weapons there for about $5 a set. I think a set consists of one pistol,one rifle, ammo cases, magazines, a few grenades, and a holster for the pistol and some other misc. accessories.IMHO,There is no use spending a lot of money for something you can get cheap. Here is a picture of the "Action Man" Walther PPK with clip and holster. You can compare it to the one on the site and see that I am correct. It can be bought for $1.49 plus tax at Toys-R-Us in Johnson City TN.

Sorry but the picture you scanned is a PP not PPK. Small difference, but still very different, as far as collecting is concerned. The one on the site is clearly a PPK.

They could possibly be different types of minatures.

Serious minature collectors will notice the difference, as well as Walther specialists.
