I saw those. They looked good (in around 20mm in scale), if a bit
limited in
range.

Don't forget Johnny Lightning. They produce a line of US WW2 military
vehicles
(trucks, jeeps and halftracks) that work really well for 15mm WW2. These
are
fairly inexpensive, and already painted. The Battle of the Bulge line
looks a
little nicer than the D-Day line.

Check out the Rumble Bots that The Beast mentioned. They look pretty
cool,
even if they are a bit expensive.

I've been waiting for them to drop in price.

I laughed out loud... "Listen up you primitive screw heads!"
