BuildArmy Brick Action Figures Review

 This week I finally got something I was looking forward to add to my collection for some months. The awesome brick action figures from Buildarmy. 

                            

Buildarmy is toy company from the UK that sell kits of vehicles and now these action figures. They use LEGO-like parts (I don't have any so I can't talk about quality) to create tanks and other kind of vehicles mostly about World War II. Their vehicles are 1:33 scale so they are bigger than the usual scale of 1:45 used in the community and the 1:42-1:43 used by me and what I consider the minifig scale. So obviously the LEGO minifigs don't match the size of their vehicles and that's sad and for me was a problem... until now! These new figures match perfectly the size of these vehicles and any 1:35 scale vehicle you can have. The best part I see is now you can build MOCs in this "new" scale. Like playing the same videogame but in a harder difficulty now. You could build MOCs at this scale previously but without figures they look like empty. So now I'm excited to have this new road to drive it with my ideas!

The figures come disassembled and you have to assemble them. They come with some spare parts as I will show below and the minifigs are fully compatible with BrickArms and other 3rd party accessories. 

Quality seems pretty decent. The joints of the elbow and the shoulder may be a bit difficult to put in place but nothing bad. Faces may be the worst part. I don't like them at all but well could be worse. Colors of the uniforms look off. They don't resemble the real ones. But I still consider that they are worth it and I like them. You can put them in many different poses which is awesome. The German soldier has real gear while the American soldier has printed gear. I like that they are action figures and they didn't just make a oversized LEGO-like minifig. Recently on their Instagram profile they announced more figures so we will have more to choose from including Romans! You can check their Instagram profile here: https://www.instagram.com/buildarmy/

Here the figure wears a helmet I painted myself. It is not the original one.

What do you think guys? Do you want to see MOC's with them? Do want to add some to your collection? Let me know and thank you for reading!
