Thanks!

there is one problem with this kit - the size and shape of the light respirator cases. I sent MiniArt pictures and dimensions of an actual case from my collection when the preview of the kit was first seen - but they chose not to amend them

foolish question:
could these figures be used for Korean War, too I like to disguise them as Australians, on the back of a Centurion Mk. 3?

Hi Simon,

Yes, it's a problem with all the 1/35 scale plastic figures I've seen, no one has managed to get the respirator haversack bag right, alwasy much too big.

Both Resicast and Accurate Armour do British kit sets that have more reasonable sized cases but some might argue they are too small

Those aside these are a really welcome sent of troops, useable on tanks, vehicles and ground settings so I'm really pleased to see them being released.

Cheers

Al
