One thing though, the photos show 3 sitting figures. Two are obviously for the 40mm Bofors mount, but does anyone have any idea what the third one is supposed to be doing? Al

Hi Taffy 3. Moving left to right in the picture of ther painted up samples I think they go like this: Bofors, Bofors, 50 cal, 50 cal, Bofors, Bofors, helm, wandering sailor, 20mm, and 37mm. I have no idea why one of the 50 cal gunners would be sitting while the other is standing. I'd like to know where the officers are.

I've already bought 7 out of 8 of the Warriors crew members (they're outstanding by the way, though more than twice as expensive as Italeri's) but I may buy one set of Italeri's to use on other projects. You can't have enough 1/35 naval figures. I think Italeri could have done a better job on these, such as a little more diversity in uniforms and why is that guy wandering the deck when I'd rather see him doing something in the cockpit. My undrestanding is that these boats were difficult to operate and required one guy to steer and one to work the throttle.
