Are these a re-brand/re-release? I recall having figures in these poses as a kid.

Yep, that's a re-release. I think it was Alanger the last time round. But there o.k, they fit good on a Panther tank.

Lots of possibilities with that poses, not only to use them as tank riders. Nice set!

Not a re-brand, I don't think, but an old ICM kit now re-issued. This little kit was widely re-boxed by Revell and I think came out in the 90's. I have one, it's OK but showing it's age. I still see lots of the Revell ones around.

I'm quite partial to the solider sitting with the MG42 in his lap. Would be nice to see the quality, regardless of re-issue or boxing.
