Very nice, and certainly a big figure set.

When you say "towing and firing position", do you mean they can both be built in either position, or one can be built in the towing position, the other in the firing position (as in the box-art)?

It looks to be the same figures from this older kit



And looks like no new tooling on the Pupchen........ Just some new sprues added...

Wow i've gotta get myself a set ( i missed out on getting the original release and with this being the premium edition there should be some new extras thrown in) when are they available in the UK?

Not just great to have the two guns, but look at how many para's you get . What a great little kit. with the other Dragon kits of Fallschirmjager out there I'm shure there are plenty of scope for lots of German papachute Dio's. Great news. I know its a Geraman release,but the Fallschirmjager hav'nt been well represented in plastic
