Corgi Tank RIders, etc.

Is it just me or are the figures accompanying the recent armor releases (tank riders, infantry, etc.) of a poorer quality than the separate sets of Forward March figures (like the Rangers, Paratrooppers, etc.)?

Re: Corgi Tank RIders, etc.

I don't have any of Forward March figures nor have any interest in them. I do have the Centaur and don’t think it is built as well as pervious series - The turret is loose fitting and rattles. My opinion of the figures is that they are for 12 and under.

As long as I’m ranting – The packaging sucks.

I agree on all counts. I do have several of the forward march series and I do not much care for these figures outside of the fact they are in poses for riding. I don't really like the tanks' paint schemes either. As for the packaging.... worst Corgi packaging ever - as far as what I own. All in all, not as great as they could have been but they have their "charms" if you are a lover of Corgi armor and figures but a disappointment based on their earlier releases.
