Looking good, and the extra crew figure handing out the bottles is a nice touch.
As for the date (1939-43), these can be used after 43 as well, and it would have been a really nice touch if (for 1939-40 settings) the Panzermutze would have been included.
A must have at any rate.
Cheers

Well, not really, as the black woolen uniform would have been a bit to hot. Shorts and short sleeves seem to have been the order of the day. I have seen a few photos of Panzer Crews wearing black uniforms, but was during the initial parade when they had just arrived. I can't recall any photos of the uniform being worn 'in theatre'.

It's nice to note that these are all full figures, as opposed to 4 half and 2 full figures which is the impression I got from the box-art. This really adds a lot of versatility to the kit.
@ tracklink2: tankers in NA typically wore the tropical dress. As they considered themselves somewhat elite may DAK tankers retained (against regulation) their black field caps as well as any European badging - such as the death-head lapel badge on the black backing.

I am going to order this set with my next online buying spree. It really looks like a great set.
