Coming soon from Dnepro – resin sets for World War II German and Hungarian modelling projects.
Item 1606 1/16 scale Mischlast Abwurfbehälter 250 kg.
Upon landing, Fallschirmjäger proceed to drop containers which have been parachuted along with them. These containers would have their fighting weapons, grenades and other items necessary to fulfill the mission. Shaped like a bullet, the Mischlast Abwurfbehälter 250 (Kg) was the early model of drop container used by Fallschirmjager units in World War II.

I see another Fallschirmjager dio in the works with, perhaps the Dragon figures...

Duh...I just noticed that its a 1/16th offering so scratch that reference to Dragon as they don't have more than a figure or two in that scale that would be appropriate in a dio using the Abwurfhalter.

Frank. Here's one in 1/16: I know there were a couple more of Dragon FJs in 1/16. I would think all these would be available in eBay. Dnepro states it will release the container in other scales i.e. 1/35, so that's another option for you. Cheers, Tat
