MiniArt continues releasing extremely interesting figure kits in 1/35 scale... this time we report a great addition to Soviet WW2 vehicles.

The two guys working on the engine could easily be converted. As so little of them are seen when posed driving, would be an easy conversion. But yeah, I agree ... its a weird miss. But the figures included all have very useful poses anyway.

Hello Everyone.

would like to explain why we haven't include any driving figure. The reason is we didn't want to "repeat" such figures as we have two of them in kit "35042 World War II Drivers".

We wanted to create drivers in new poses. And this we have done in upcoming kit "35144 Red Army Drivers."

Here is the link for the kit 35042

Have look at the MiniArt set ' Military Drivers', which contains some Russian drivers.
