Taking a short hiatus from breaking news, new products and and other serious business matters, let’s talk about “toys”. And I am not using quotes around “toys” to mean all the guns and gadget we are all obsessed with, I mean action figures. Except the depictions created by DAMToys aren’t really toys – they are scaled down reproductions of soldiers with their real guns and kit.

The detail in each of the life-like models is amazing. From the web gear, night vision, weapon magazines to chemical lights and spiral notebooks, everything is meticulously hand crafted. Even accessories like a Garmin wrist GPS and unit identification patches are included. Especially impressive are the firearms and accessories included with each figure.

Other figures:

These “toys” aren’t new: the website says they have been around since at least 2012. But unfortunately I was unable to get ahold of anyone at DAMToys for pricing and availability. For now you’ll just have to picture yourself playing with them in the grass, sand and other backyard war zones like we once did as kids.

UPDATE:

Thanks to poster Craig McMillan who reminds me to check eBay when all else fails. Prices are ranging from $150-$300.
