Well, not shiny exactly, as they're hard plastic, but...
Anyway, in the summer of last year, Grey for Now Games released a new "WW2 Commando Raid" game called "02 Hundred Hours". Not quite our thing, although there was an interesting mix of 28mm metal and plastic figures representing WW2 Germans, many of whom would be usable (most with head swaps) in the VBCW as jackbooted BUF.

It appears that the plastic figures came about as a result of co-operation between Grey For Now Games and Wargames Atlantic, for, after a decent interval, Wargames Atlantic have now made the same plastic figures available in a separate, dedicated box, labelled "German Sentries":

| Yay! German Sentries - 30 figures and 10 Alsatians for £25.00! |
Very decently priced and capable of being modelled in lots of varied poses, these 'straight up and down" sentry figures are just the thing for guarding installations, searching and patrolling, standing at road blocks (aka presenting a tempting target) - or, with a little more conversion, serving as engineers or pioneers if you've already built your BUF Bridging Column....
