The carbine on the green soldiers isnt colored because they arent the same type of carbine. the black carbine is actually meant to have a foldable stock, the wood is just a regular one. The tan soldiers were so nice.
The *German soldier* in black is actually a *Panzer* (tank) officer holding a *Luger* which was popular choice among tank crew. He is an officer because of his *medal, cap* and specially styled *jacket.* Out of the 4-5 Panzer crew he isn't a driver, loader, or gunner (most probably radio operator) because of his *binoculars* *7:29* However gotta say I enjoyed watching you build the *Panzer 1* light tank since it was renown for its *blitzkrieg* in the initial stages of the war.
@@APersonOnRUclipsX No no, the P08 Luger Firearm was still used and manufactured during the the Second World War, however, the preferred choice of sidearm for Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS panzer crewmen would be the Walther PPK and or the Walther-P38, the P08 was used by Wehrmacht field officers, Panzergrenadier officers (Green piping), Artillery officers (red piping on their hats if I remember correctly) and of course Senior officers such as Generalleutnants and so on aka German High command. Towards the end of the war I believe the P08 was slowly ruled out and then the Walther PPK and Walther-P38 became German officers choice weapon. Adolf Hitlers personal firearm was a Walther-P38 or PPK if I remember correctly, but yeah the P08 was still prominent during the Second World War for German officers, even some NCO’s as well (Feldwebel, Oberfeldwebel etc.)
The SS (SchutzStaffel) and field officers also wore specialised leather jackets, including Wehrmacht motorcycle trained drivers. The black leather jacket during the Second World War can be associated with Panzercrewman officers (Leutnants etc) and motorcycle operators. But yeah, his medal I believe would be a Iron cross second class as it is on display along with his ribbon which I believe is a Iron Cross first class ribbon as if I remember correctly, the ribbon was to be worn but not the iron cross itself (unless it was a second class iron cross or a knights cross, knights cross with oak leaves or knights cross with oak leaves and diamonds, etc etc.)
I loved seeing all the details on the mini figs up close! For years I've stayed away from collecting lego, but WWII era stuff would definitely get me into it!
When I was a kid I bought one these at Walgreens and it was a Lego ww2 and the mini figs even had body army over them and a whole bunch of guns and the tank even had a three t lol. I got it so I could use it with my halo mega blocks which were better and cheaper than Lego.
@@darklord9581 Here in Germany we only had Toys R Us while i was young or little toy stores that weren't part of a brand and they only had licensed products. Now Toys R Us got replaced with Smyths Super Toy and it just lost it's magic at least for me.
Was wondering why the DAK caps from the Indiana Jones set looked so weird and totally unlike a DAK cap. Then you mentioned something about U.S. civil war figures. Bingo, they just used the existing moulds from these and made them in a sand colour plastic!
I love the airborne troopers, and especially that BAR. The panzer tank looks really cool, the tank commander looks even better. The detailing on the German soldiers’ tunics are really cool. Their products are worth the prices
@@cheezyballz not really, they are just basically named their tanks to "tank I, tank II... Tank VI", or they gave them nicknames (Tiger I, Kingtiger/Tiger II), since the "Panzerkampfwagen" means "armored fighting vehicle" in a (probably) mirror translate (Panzer-armor, kampf-fight, wagen-car
I think the reason why the head didn't want to be removed is from the lack of air or basically vacuumed shut, that's why if you look at some of the heads, there are slots or cuts inside the male stud of the head
@@thepostofficeprince8819 Yeap. Fun fact, that is the exact same reason why many pencaps have that little hole at the tip. It ashames me to say I learned that only as an adult, but still, lolz.
@@glidershower that's an urban myth. The hole in a pen cap is to keep it from vacuum sealing to the pen. It's not big enough to breathe through. Seriously, put a pen cap in your mouth and breathe only through it and see how long you last
Among my very first Lego sets back in the late 90s, I had a cavalry horse carriage with a few guys in blue, armed to the teeth with revolvers, rifles and dynamite. So really, Lego has been producing these "illegal" weapons for ages 🤷🏻♂️ btw, Star Wars Lego existed back then as well, I had a few sets based on The Phantom Menace, but back in the day, the blasters were just these backwards megaphones with an orange transparent stud at the end^^
Honestly I am a history person and I cannot say how accurate they are I just like how indeapth and detailed are german officers are that would have to be my favorite thing about the figures.
The rpg fig was sick, I loved all the detail on that group of figures. And I've never seen a watch on a minifigure before, so that was cool to see. Keep it up Daley!
“Lego will not make products that promote violence” Clone wars sets:😅 EDIT: omg thank for all the likes! It’s more like than all of my videos combined!
@@sarahmcglasson3064 but you know Star Wars never happened, knights and pirates is past. WWII is still "fresh". I think you know already. Best way to stop wars is to not talk about wars. Meanwhile in the East.
personally, my favourite is the panzer commander simply because of the detail, although the ww2 airborne squad pack was also quite cool simply because of the additional elements that they added like the watch. btw it is important to note that all those figures are printed on real lego that they wipe the print off of.
Great video, really informative about Lego's history with guns and soldiers :D, My favourite minifigures are definitely the airborne troops they look sick!
My favorite thing in this video was the airborn troops. Like you said the printing was insane and the weapon on the sniper was so dope. The tank was also very cool especially the driver.
Coolest thing had to be the utility/combat belt you can put all your spare gear on. Been a long time fan of legos since I was a kid and I’m glad brickarms is still healthy’n going and producing custom pieces
my favorite thing in the video was probably the green squad. The reason is due because I love the simplicity of the figures which if you use it in a film you could use them as either national guards, recruits like privates, or a militia.
For the first german soldier, you put the belt mag in the mg42 in the wrong side. You want the hot bullet casings going away from your arms, not towards
You know whats weird? That lego doesnt want to do anything with war but they do Star WARS sets where they DO have weapons such as blasters, lightsabers and also weapon equipped vehicles
@Mr. Foxo no they’re not, you’re just stupid firstly ww2 had a total of 40-50 MILLION deaths, whilst Star Wars is a movie, it’s fiction no one actually dies in star wars it’s all just acting, you can’t compare not wanting to make Lego figures surrounding any real war where people died with Star Wars, it makes no sense
I remember wanting figures like this so badly as a kid, especially after owning a bunch of Lego Indiana Jones figures and making them into custom minifigures.
My favorite thing was the utility belt that the one US troop had, I think that'd be a really cool idea for LEGO to use themselves. It'd fit in really well for construction workers or police officers in LEGO City sets!
In one captain America set that was like 10 dollars, for a short period of time the hydra soldier actually had a cool looking, realistic, pistol until it was eventually removed.
Those official lego rifles were used in the 90's along with cattleman revolver prints, double barrel shotguns and muskets for their cowboy and pirate play sets.
i've bought some war Bootlego sets, too, because i was into GI Joe for a summer, and wanted lego sets to build my GI Joe world, instead of the larger 4" scale sets.
I really like the Indiana Jones German soldiers as I had a few Indiana Jones sets of my own as a kid and really wanted a few of them for myself but never got the chance to get some
The reason to why the carbines aren’t colour matched on green squad is because the wood coloured is an M1 and the black painted one is an M2 carbine which is a switch fire M1 carbine(semi auto and full auto)
The carbine on the green soldiers isnt colored because they arent the same type of carbine. the black carbine is actually meant to have a foldable stock, the wood is just a regular one. The tan soldiers were so nice.
WDYM no garands? There were a few
oh didnt notice the one the green guys had mb
BIG BRAIN 🫡
Americans you mean nit green soldiers
Could also be an m2 carbine which was an automatic variant of the m1 carbine.

The Luger wasnt actualy that common but the walter p38
and the walter ppk way more

Kudos to him for actually knowing the gun names
He didnt knew the stg
For the fact they are unofficial and not made by Lego they do look so high quality its impressive
A lot, if not most, non-lego brick companies produce higher quality these days. Especially considering their way more reasonable prices.

I have a few dozen from the Western theme, and the caps are called kepis by Lego.
These are awesome! May have to look these up!
Very impressed with the quality of them!
Watching this video, you can see why a very kid-friendly Lego in the early days didn't even make that many grey bricks haha
When they started to make grey bricks some dude made concentration camp sets 💀💀
@@clonetroop Do you mean lego bricks or real bricks?
@@Ghiaman1334 lego, it was some political artist in the 90s I think lego supplied bricks for them
@@clonetroop i heard about that one. wasn't there a lawsuit or something to force the artist to pull the exhibit?

Mg42s eject the casings downwards

I am laughing so hard when you said associate to wars. They have a complete series of STAR WARS with the word "war" in the name.
i like how he ignored his cat walking by because he paid more attention to the figs
Back in old days we dont got these cool toys we build from our sweat and tears
As a kid we had a big set of WW2 Lego knockoffs, it was a single huge set with multiple cars and some tanks.
The tank, Truly amazing. I had no Idea any of these companies existed. Im glad I do now!
The Brickarms guns are so awesome, I had so many as a kid
I really liked the weapons, so much detail
I like the kity walking on the desk
Those official lego rifles were used in the 90's along with cattleman revolver prints, double barrel shotguns and muskets for their cowboy and pirate play sets.
This looks so cool, Lego should just do it officially
The Panzer II, THAT WAS THE COOLEST PART
I have never seen a fake lego weapon as beautiful as that sniper!!
My favorite thing has got to be the paratrooper guys, loved the vid man
I just found your channel. I'm in love with the tank. I'll be watching these videos for sure. Take care!!
OMG the Airborne Soldier with the web belt. Childhood dreams come true!
I love the wepon designs,they look soo well and cool considering its lego
Dang that tank is AWESOME!!!
That tank is so cool!
I like the US marines from the pacific front, because the weapons are very cool and the helmets are custom printed it seems like
Imagine getting pulled over with a bunch of Illegal Minifigures lol
Meanwhile Cobi:
*Hey kid, wanna Hitler's car?*
What boys actually want. Because reenactments makes Lego fun.
really liked the look of the ww2 german tank commander with the luger and binoculars
That grenade accessory is really cool
We don't want to be afiliated with wars -> proceed to make lego sets for star WARS
Love the Indiana Jones figs, it’s very interesting to see Lego put WW2 soldiers into a set
My favorite thing was seeing the dual printed weapons since I never have seen that in Lego
Ofc 😂
My favorite part was when the cat walked into frame lol
Its kinda sad they stopped making starwars blasters, but man those figurines are beautiful
Cobi and sluban have some cool sets including war focused ones

I really like the Indiana Jones German soldiers as I had a few Indiana Jones sets of my own as a kid and really wanted a few of them for myself but never got the chance to get some
M1 Carbines..one has the filding steel stock, so of course they went black...the brown has the full wood stock.
I like the US paratroopers since they get a really cool belt that you can attach gear to
star wars and Indiana Jones and literally night legos: are we a joke to you
I love that custom tank omg!
The pistol carried by the wermacht officer is a Luger which is actually a French developed pistol made in WW1 and adopted by the German military
The reason to why the carbines aren’t colour matched on green squad is because the wood coloured is an M1 and the black painted one is an M2 carbine which is a switch fire M1 carbine(semi auto and full auto)
They actually had real looking rifles for the Lego Indi sets. The guns you have are from the lego pirates sets
I think the best Part of this Video was the speed build of the Tank
Awesome military mini fig review
