This is the Open Box review for the set of two WWII German Soldiers in 1/35 scale (a rider and a passenger on the sidecar) from the Eastern Front. It is sculpted by Pawel Krasicki and painted by Artur Miniszewski. The rider can be purchased individually to use alone on a single motorcycle.
The first figure (rider) depicts a WWII German Soldier and consists of 6 parts. The pose is very nice and realistic and not a lot of cleaning is needed. A rifle Kar 98 is included and also a second optional head. The Kar 98 rifle has a hole to fit on the back of the figure (also there is the appropriate surface to fit perfectly on the back of the rider) so no need for pinning and sling (as it is already casted on the figure).
The second figure depicts a German Soldier (passenger) with winter cap and face mask. The kit consists of 4 parts. All the parts are very clean and the casting is excellent! Remove the casting blocks and go for priming and painting. This one has been sculpted to fit on the side car.
As you can see here we have one very useful figure set to accompany our creations in 1/35 scale with excellent sculpting and casting quality. You can see the details on the heavy winter coats and caps!
