Travis discovered the following sale:
http://eoeorbis.com/collections/world-war-2/products/ww9027-u-s-para-bazooka-team-2?variant=1314907728
Black tree is doing a 40% off infantry sale right now. They have para bazooka and sniper teams, and infantry mortar teams. I'm not sure what the shipping is like with them but if people have a couple random teams to get this might be a good thing for a group order.
Shipping is a flat $5 for orders under $150, free if over.
This is a pretty decent deal. Most of their metal minis come in packs of 4, and this sale knocks those packs to $5.25 each, which is an excellent per/miniature price. Special weapons teams are also included. Here are just a few examples:
$3.30 US Para Bazooka Team
$3.30 US Para Snipers
$5.25 US Infantry Bazooka Teams II (4)
$5.25 US Infantry 30 Cal Team (3)
$5.25 US Para HMG Team
$3.30 British Para Flamethrowers (2)
$4.50 British Commandos with Bren Guns II (3)
$5.25 British Light Mortar Team (4)
$5.25 British Vickers Team I (3)
$5.25 British Infantry with PIATs (4)
$13.19 PAK40 & crew
... you get the idea.
They've got the following ranges: Americans, British, French, German, Italians, & Soviets
I'm offering to facilitate the group buy. Shipping will be evenly split among the participants (flat split, not based on size of order). Brandon, I owe ya for the M20 ($20'ish (?), let me know), so I can cover your order out of that or whatever you'd prefer.
Please post what you want below. Be very clear, Model number, name, price, link - as follows:
Serrate (Bryan England):
WW2066 - US Para HMG Team $5.25 - http://eoeorbis.com/collections/world-war-2/products/ww2066-u-s-para-hmg-team?variant=1314901700
WW9027 - US Para Bazooka Team $3.30 - http://eoeorbis.com/collections/world-war-2/products/ww9027-u-s-para-bazooka-team-2?variant=1314907728

Total: $11.85 + shipping
Let me know if you have any questions. The sale ends in 105 hours, which is Friday afternoon sometime. However, I've got shoulder surgery on Thursday and it's unlikely I'll be coherent enough at any time on Friday to actually take care of ordering this. So, if someone else wants to facilitate, that's cool, OR please have your order posted and locked in by Wednesday 2:00 PM.

Sounds good. Order this for your mortar: http://eoeorbis.com/collections/world-war-2/products/ww2117-u-s-infantry-mortar-team?variant=1314902500
Late war paras were wearing the same uniform as other infantry, and same helmets as well. You'll have tons of extra equipment from your plastic paras to add more stuff to these guys (could even switch out heads if you want), and they'll look perfect.
-
What mortar are you looking for in particular?
-
light mortar 2 man team for my paratroopers
WW2117 - U.S. Infantry Mortar Team looks more like a medium mortar although I guess it could be sub not to mention medium mortar itself anyway if I wanted
-
To make a 60mm M2, you can just use a bit of tubing and like.. a staple for legs. Just cut the tubing to be about as long as one of your mini's arms, and use some cardboard or the like to make the baseplate. Barrel was 2.5ish feet long so that should be about right. Or use the big one and just proxy as a light, its not like we'll have a mortar company on the table and have to differentiate them.
The mini looks almost like an 4.2" chemical mortar size wise, so it may just be 'Mortar, tube with legs' rather than any specific version.

How are we getting money to you?
For reference, my order (hypothetical until I have an answer to the above) would be:
WW2193 - BRITISH MORTAR TEAM - $5.25
WW2136 - BRITISH INFANTRY CASUALTIES (5 RANDOM) - $5.25
-
How are we getting money to you?
Once we've got everything locked down, I'll post the totals and my Paypal. That would be the easiest (and best for me since I get reimbursed right away), but if someone doesn't have that option available to them, then I'd ask that they bring the cash to the next game.
Clock is ticking people! :) Deadline is 2:00 pm, at which time I'll submit the order with Black Tree. Afterwards, I'll post everyone's totals in this thread (by 3:00 at the latest).
