Great looking Bundeswehr tank crew...for a Leopard 1 or even a KPz 70!

Nice, and very usable figures. I might need to get my hands on a set or two of both.

I really like their figures for their sculpt. I have couple sets however never painted them.
Did anyone ever noticed Korean made figures (Valkyries, Alpine, Division) tend to be on the smaller side compare to Warriors, Tank, and Hornet figures?

Yes, but then people come in different sizes too. You have to compare things that are the same size like canteens and rifles.

Most of Alpines sculptors are Korean immigrants.

Yea, sure people comes in all different sizes.
I meant just in overall size comparison. If you take several figures from brand A next to several figures brand B, you will see one brand's figure is overall bigger than another company's figure size. I find that very interesting.

I'm thinking the same thing. I have some 1/35 scale figures from several Korean companies and they are smaller and thinner than the rest of the 1/35 scale figures on the market.
