Other Toy Lines / Marauder Inc.

Just want to open everyone's eyes to a GREAT new source of 1/18 scale weaponry!
There's a new company out there called Marauder Inc. that makes BRAND NEW 1/18 scale action figure weapons. I repeat, these are NOT resin casts of weapons from other manufactures, but ORIGINAL SCULPTS made by actual toy industry sculptors. I have several of their products and can personally vouch for their quality not only in sculpting, but in the plastic used to produce them. The weapons are molded in a slightly glossy black plastic that has a feel very reminiscent of old-school "Vintage" Star Wars accessories or 80's G.I.Joe accessories.
So far their product range is almost exclusively military in design, but they are branching out into more sci-fi weapons as well over the next 2 assortments. They currently have 11 different weapons available in various sets via their on-line store ( http://www.marauderinc.com/servlet/StoreFront ) and have an additional 22 different weapons coming in the second series (There's going to be some VERY happy customizers on this site )!
Stop by their on-line store and have a look around, I think the "Colonial Marines Gun" will appeal to many on this site. I have one and made it a VERY Star Wars-esque weapon with only some slight mods, but it also works well as-is
As a note to customizers, these weapons can be easily modified as they are rigid, but not brittle, and take Krazy Glue ™ without the plastic getting discolored!
Marauder Inc.'s products get the "Spectre Seal Of Approval"!
