wwII army units3 Web Site To Find Great 1 72 Scale WWII Figures?

Hi. I have tried Ebay… okay; I have tried a few Google searches… okay; I have tried my local HobbyTownUSA… okay, but I can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. I am looking for some good, low priced, quality miniatures for World War II in 1/72 scale. Not just your usual from Revell, Esci, etc., but something a bit more interesting and exciting. Something that has the odd parts of the army. I am looking for figures mainly from the Soviet Union’s fighting force, but also some cool pieces of WWII in China or Korea. For example, how often do you see a set called “soviet infantry”– all the time. how often do you see things such as- “soviet sniper teams”, “soviets on the Reichstag”, “soviet female infantry unit”, “chinese resistance” and others- rarely. these are the sets I am out to find. I am looking mainly for websites, but even places by MD are good as well. Or, if there may be a site where you email images or drawing to make your own unique custom figures, that is great. THANKS!!

    Dogs of War: Contractors doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past (UPI) – By DAVID ISENBERG WASHINGTON

    An army may travel on its stomach, but it lives to fight another day by studying its history. For the U.S. military, the study of history is not an academic pursuit but a deadly serious business. That is why there are offices like the Air Force Historical Research Agency, the Army Center for Military History, the Naval Historical Center, and the …
