A little history lesson...

After the Nazi´s took power in 1933, all firebrigades where renamed "Feuerschutzpolizei" literally Fire Protection Police. The where a part of the Ordnungpolizei under the command of the SS. The vehicles were painted Tannengrün instead of Red like police cars. Professoinal firemen in big cities wore green Polzei uniforms, while rural firemen kept their blue uniforms.
Looks like an interesting yet little known theme of WWII.

The fire hydrant alone is an excellent dio accessory. Can't even be found in resin! Dragon should beware! Everyone else is improving.

Fully agree.

We witness a takeover of the military modelling market by these great and innovating manufacturers from east Europe. Dragon hasn't done that may really new during the last couple of years but companies like MiniArt, Masterbox, ICM and even Zvezda don't hesitate to make fully new subjects in quantities using latest technologies and they're getting better and better.

I don't know why the Dragon people don't want to see this but according to this and to their constantly raising prizes here in Europe they run the risk of loosing more and more consumer acceptance...

This great figure set and the last new kits from ICM are a good examples for that. Now look on the last 20 novelties from Dragon...

Wonder if they have a firte truck on the way? These figures will be a little out of place without one. I agree with the others ... nice to see something different ... they present great dio ideas.
