So, WWII Germans could urinate and defecate whilst the rest of the human race, for all of time, could not.

If you weren´t wearing something shaggy you weren´t a viking.
If you didn´t have long, recently shampooed hair, you weren´t a viking.
All vikings had those little pouches on their belts, just big enough for their car-keys, cigarettes and wallet.
If you were a farmer outside of WWII or the Napoleonic wars, very few will have ever made a model figure of you.
If you were any kind of civilian outside of Napoleonic or WWII timeframes chances are no-one´s made a decent figure kit of you. Unless you´re some floosie being chatted up by a smart soldier boy.
History = War. War = History.
Democrates, Archimedes, Sophocles, Copernicus, Leonardo Da Vinci, van Huygens, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin never existed let alone anyone from those other countries where they have a higher sub-cutaneous melamin content.
Celts never felt the cold.
No-one ever, never, ever had a snotty nose.
You couldn´t be a warrior or soldier if you were bandy-legged, or pigeon-toed or had a deviated nasal septum.
Internal organs never got splattered anywhere, even after the invention of explosive weapons.
Landscapes could "melt" over edges in a wierd Dali-esque fashion.

Some observations about olden times
- Wolves shed their skin, with Fur and teeth, for the benefit of Roman standard bearers and some gnarly warriors
- about 50% of chain mail bikini clad, g-string wearing lady warriors fought in high heels
- chain mail and plate armour never rusts, brass armour never tarnishes, swords will always have the cutting edge all shiny. some swords were dipped in chrome, even!
- Going by the fantasy types who look like they come from the Dungeons & Dragons Universe, Warriors are big, bulky, use oversize weapons (or two!), wear armour like "Bling" (fancy, over the top; armour version;Clang?) and have the brain the size of a peanut. Thieves, rogues and assassins wear cloaks to blend in with backgrounds and peasants, who incidentally, never wore cloaks; some disguise, eh?
- With all the 'Clang' needed, brass polish, loot and so forth, no henchmen have been modeled. Who carries all this stuff around for the heroes?
Oh no, I may have created a monster....or at least, some irritating little gremlin that will be shoved in a glass jar with a few air holes in the lid, soon!
