I can't wait to see when and if the rifleman makes it to the production line! I'm certainly going to get one!

I've liked this fig for a long time, and now that I look at the ammo clip, it looks different from the production ones. Early prototype, yes?

^They look the same to me, but they were protos at the time, I believe.

Check out my Flickr! Last updated: October 19th, 2009. No big MOCs from me for a while, I've got a vignette I'm working on, and it's using my best pieces.

We found that the older style did not fit as well into the minifig's grip, so it was updated before it went into production. That is the benefit of being able to produce prototypes first, to test these issues. No other customizer does this except me.

Ooooh, a grey pistol! That's pretty cool, I also see you might be bringing back the helmets! :) Decals are fantastic, I really like how you put this together! Kudos to you, Will! -jeff http://100thbg.org/: My grandpa fought in World War II. Here's the Bomb Group he was in. He was in the airforce, and survived the war. On the website, you can read up on the missions, see pictures, and learn some history. He's still living today, at 93 years old. :)

I'm getting the sense that when people go to the Lego conventions, they become, like, Brickarms gurus who have a super-high status with Will. ....I guess that's probably true lol.

^No, but it helps to strengthen the relationship between buyer and supplier. ;) And just kidding Will, although you can never get enough of those brilliant decals.
