Hi guys. Does anyone know what uniform a Minenraumer crewman would have worn? I'm building the RPM Minenraumer and want to put a figure either on it or in it but don't know what it would have looked like. Were they special troops, pioneers etc? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi KOsprueone,
I googled it and found alot of info on it, but most of it was the same. The instructions are HORRIBLE. The pieces are not marked on the sprue and the instructions call for the wrong pieces often. Trial and error got me through the first 5 or 6 steps. The "feet" on the smaller rear wheel have a gap that needs to be filled so that they look like one piece. The gaps ranged from a few milimeters to several. Most people who built the kit said it went together well towards the end-I'll let you know how I make out. I'll post pics of the model when done. Thanks for your interest.
