Zvezda have released two sets of figures depicting British infantry soldiers of World War 2 in 1/72nd scale. In this review Michal Sindera will take a look at one of these figure sets.

I noticed the soft detail on the packs; that molded bayonet betrays the figures - perhaps they should have been molded separately. Overall I am amazed at how nicely sculpted and molded they are - impressive. One personal nitpick: I wish figure set makers would chose a theme and stick with it - the shambling Tommy just doesn't fit with the action poses of the others.

Fully agree with Frederic on all points (pros and cons)!
