Quality | Each of these two sets includes four figures of German WW2 paratroopers - tank riders. Most of arms and weapons are moulded and cast separately and therefore each figure has to be completed before painting. All parts are perfectly detailed and figures have very natural poses. All part are well cast without problematic bubbles or flesh. |
Instruction sheet | No | General Impression & Note |
These sets are amazing. Their
sculptor evidently took inspiration from 1/35
scale figure sets from DML Dragon.
The figure represents German paratroopers from 1/FJR 9 of 5.Fallschimjäger Div. which fought together with SS tanks in Ardennes in late 1944. Their photos are well known especially photos of Kurt Sowa's King Tiger "222" having them on board. Nevertheless they are universal and can be used according your fantasy. I thing they can be also used to complete 1/72 scale model but be careful of size defence when combined with figures of other producers. |
