Well, i realize any person the least bit verse in all things lego can do this with a combination of this site and other lego-part purchasing sites, but....
Is it possible to make some basic soldiers? A helmet, an M4 or (if there can be a WWII theme as well) a Thompson SMG/M1 Garand or Carbine, and the minifigure in some basic uniform? What i'm really trying to suggest is a package for new Brickarms users who enjoy the idea of having little combat scenes, but don't have the proper "weapons" or soldiers. What the kit would entail would be three to five blank minifigs in a specific color, a rifle/smg for each, a "camoflauge" or "army uniform" decal and a helmet for each. Basically, a squad. The customer could probably access some .pdf or something to find out how to place the decals if they have no idea of what to really do (concerning the decals).
Comments?
Oh, also:
Hey, I'm Russian446, one of the newest members to the Brickarms community. I hope to be building with you all soon once i acquire some of the Brickarms parts!

I think this is a good idea (dig, dig, digging up an old thread). I think it should include:
Weapons:
Grenade Weapons Pack (without M84 stun grenades)
Series 1 Weapon Pack
Figs:
WW2 US Army Sargeant fig
WW2 German Soldier SMG Gunner
Brickarms Bandit- Mr. Grey (In my mind the BA trio)
Something about this line-up just screams Bread and Butter/Starter kit to me.

If you think about it, alot of starter kit's for Miniature games (Heroclix, Star Wars minis, etc.) Cost a LOT. That's why, even though the price is higher, I still think this would work out well. Ask yourself, "How did I start with MY Brickarms?". People probably start off getting a larger amount of BA, and then gradually sink lower, and get less on the following orders. This would give people a good taste of BA, should they (and they BETTER ;]) want more.

Personally, I got only a few BrickArms at first because I wanted to ensure that the quality was actually good, and if it wasn't, I didn't want to have wasted money. So I bought the minimum amount of Brickarms. ($10) From then on, my orders have increased. Also, don't put probably in your sentence because then you look lazy. ;) [MOD - And don't minimod because it makes you look foolish when a mod corrects you. "Probably" as was posted above is simply a hypothesis (albeit one with no proof provided for its basis) regarding BrickArms customer's ordering habits. Nothing lazy about it. - badger]EDIT: I just meant for this particular time.....
