Hi
thanks alot

Be advised that particular kit came out in the 1970s.
That's like, last century...

Even at the time, they weren't up to scratch with Tamiya's Artillery Crew and that leaves a lot to be desired.

There are better, low-cost German artillery crews around - Trumpeter do a couple of acceptable sets.

$0.02

acav out

Just curious...

Why the Italeri set?

There are newer, better(IMO)sets made by dragon, trumpeter that would fit the bill.
all are readily available

Lee,

can I just say......

DON'T BUY THE ITALERI KIT!

It is absolutely awful! The mouldings are some of the worst I have ever seen, the faces are worse than some toy soldiers, in fact this emoticon probably has a better defined face than the Italeri kit: (Notice it is crying- as you will be when you open the box!)

Seriously though, it is an OLD kit and as the other guys have said there are much better kits out there. If it's the price thats appealing to you, the Tamiya german artillery troops kit is not much more money and is 100 times better than the Italeri kit, despite also being out-dated by todays standards (with careful painting and a bit of work the Tamiya figs should come out quite good).
Please don't buy the Italeri kit, you will regret it, and if you already have please destroy it rather than just throw it away - to ensure no-one else suffers the misfortune of coming across the kit!

Funny and true, Just to add my voice to the chorus DON'T BUY THEM THEY ARE AWFUL

I agree with the rest of the crew here but didn't want to rain on your parade being the first to reply to your post. There are much better offerings out there as previously mentioned. Personally, I like the Dragon 88 crew.

They're all dressed for cold weather though so they may not be what you're looking for.

Hi
Basiclly I just needed the 1 figure carring the box I have a verlinden 88mm flak emplacment he is on the box carring a flak round but thanks for the info sounds like a awful kit
Thanks Panzerboy

If you need some artillery men carrying boxes then what abot the Miniart kit

The pose on the officer is just too much! I didn't know the Village People had a German in the group! And the looks on the faces of the other figures seem just as shocked.
"Don't ask, don't tell" on the Eastern front.

Lee... Italeri figures? Been there, done that.

Now, while I confess to having a bit of a soft spot for Italeri, I'm not blind to their flaws, such as excessively tight tracks on their tracked vehicles (and no, it's not just their Zvezda re-boxes.) Their wheeled vehicles, strangely enough, are reasonably decent models. But their figures.... shudder are truthfully quite horrid. Or at least the ones I've worked with. I'd rather buy a twenty-year old Tamiya or Trumpeter kit until I see (or hear of) a good modern Italeri kit.

That said... I still have a set of Italeri's
that needs to get done....... just not foremost on my list. Maybe for the
Campaign.

LOL I like the eastern front jokes I really appreciate all the advice I think I will skip the kit thanks everybody you are all tops!!!!
Thanks Panzerboy

Cool looking kit!! I didn't know this one existed! LOL love the officer,looks like he wants to get the job done so he can get back to listening to David Bowie on his IPOD,
