The German tanker is first-class; odd that both of the Italians look foolish. I'm guessing it is the singing that makes them look that way.
You might want to re-think your comment regarding the two Italians "looking foolish". The previous releases of these two figures were sculpted as "singles", and the by-line was "Heil Puccini", meaning that these two guys were in the middle of SINGING an aria from an opera by Puccini- As everyone who is familiar with opera may know, opera singers DO in fact emphasize what they are singing by using their hands; thus, their "odd" poses and facial expressions... Many Italians DO love their opera...
I may not ever buy these two guys, but still, they could make a nice vignette, posed next to a WWII Italian vehicle of some sort...
