I present to you my WIP. of the men of Easy. I know that they are not all there, but here a few of the most recognized ones. Band of Brothers is one of my favorite tv series's and really shows what those poor men went through in the heat of battle. They truly were young men who died for "Old men`s wounds". Their souls will live on in the hearts of many. God Bless the men of combat. "Salute"   (All names are authentic and are list left to right ) TSgt. Donald Malarky, Maj. Richard Winters, Capt. Lewis Nixon. SSgt. Joe Toye, Cpl Joe Liebgott, and Lt. Lynn "Buck" Compton. And here is a man who is probably the most memorable, SSgt. William "Wild Bill" Gaurnere.

Awesome work overall! Nixon is the most accurate in my mind, and for that I applaude you. My only complaint: You didn't make George Luz or Bull Randleman. :(

Thanks for the comment. Good to hear. For Bull, I always think that this head would work well, although I am unsure. Also, if you have enough of the Indiana Jones legs, use those for the figures. They look much better, in my opinion.

^It is a great head, but it`s either all flesh or yellow. I chose flesh because I like it better. And as I said it is a work in progress. The real version will be 100 times better. I just need more dark gray torsos to braso.

I'm holding the flesh version now in my hand.

^That`s right. I don`t own one, that is probably why I forgot about it. Thanks. I will be making a Bricklink order after X-Mas and try to get the head as well.

They're ok I in my opinion have better faces for Buck, malarkey, Toye. The face on Malarkey should be Cobbs face. Buck should have Indiana Jones face, Toye should have luke skywalker. That fits guarnere, just needs a stache. But thats just my opinion. Also I would put shoulder bags on some.

Also I would put shoulder bags on some. Alright that does it! I will post pics of what the REAL version will look like tomorrow. You will see that they have exactly ( or best a possible ) in Lego as in real life. You have convinced me to do so! Thank you Good Sir! I bid you now, good day!

Also I would put shoulder bags on some. I disagree on the face changes. I think they are all acurate as is, abiet they could use satchel bags and I.J. pants, in my opinion. Guarnere could use a crustache, but that requires moding, something that I personally wouldn't do to that face, as I only have one. If you, Brickarms fan, wish to make a crustache, I'd suggest using a Bic Ball Point Pen, and aplying small dots through out the area you wish for it to be. Either way, they all still look excelent to me!
