Thanks!

IMHO...really an uninspiring set...

The Marine on the left looks to have a cargo pocket on his trousers and the officer looks more like he has a Jungle Jacket on than WWII Utilities!!!

The poses look stiff and I am hard pressed to see how they would fit into a diorama without radical repositioning.

The antithesis of the GEN 2 figures...

One man's opinion....

I concur - in fact, they're almost as bad as (and very similar to) a set of US Marines that Hasegawa brought out in the early to mid nineties.

The Hasegawa set were also bereft of weapons and field gear - truly horrible.

There are a couple of similar poses in both sets which leads me to wonder if this is really a 'new' set after all.

Disappointing.

acav out

wierd

Don't think this will be sending shockwaves through the figure modelling industry....

In a word, terrible.

Like something from the 70's. Wooden, lacking animation and the fact they don't supply weapons and equipment is downright strange.

i nearly purchased some of this company's German soldiers and tank crew figures off of ebay but they were expensive for 4 figures and from the small image I could see looked lacking in detail.

This confirms my suspicions and I'm glad I left well alone.

Not in the same league as Masterbox, Miniart, Tristar or Dragon.
