These are my favorite German tank crew figures. I have three of the original sets and will probably get more. Sad That they just had to add a pointing guy when they updated the mold.

Rather than weapons that are of limited use on a tank, how about a sheet of decals with arm bands, epaulets, cap insignia, etc.?

A pointing German soldier is always useful The guys for the turret side hatches are very good.

Someone should release a set of things for them to point at.

The weapons sprue is worth it for the flare gun and ammo. And the stowed weapons and ammo pouches are often missing in interiors. Tempting to put the pistol in the pointing guy's hand in a "make my day" pose.

Am I really the only picky guy that wondered at the poor shoulder positioning on the guy leaning out of the left-side turret hatch? It looks like a painful dislocation to me. Otherwise a really good set to populate all of those Pz III & IVs I somehow gathered over the years. Seriously, someone should look after that figure...

cos that 'poor guy' was proberly being put/glued together in a rush for that photo shoot .... lol

forget the shoulders, how rough would that be on your butt after a few miles?

The whole thing about riding on a moving tank is how to hang on for dear life and look relaxed doing it. You distribute your weight and hang on so you don't hurt yourself too badly. Face it, there are very few comfy places to sit on a moving tank. It's nice to able to sit with your head out and not suck fumes and dust inside the often roasting metal can. Sailors call it sea legs. It's a skill much admired by strap hanging commuters the world over.
