It could be the photos, but they look clunky and not-to-scale. If you look at these photos next to Taesung's Alpine
SS Hitlerjugend machine gunners, it's like these were cast 20 years ago by Verlinden.

You may be right Bill, but the figures are both wearing bulky motorcycle clothing, so this may affect how they look. BTW the "officer" isn't, he's a non-com. He's been painted as an Oberscharfuhrer or Staff Sergeant.
"Lord Raglan wishes the cavalry to advance rapidly to the front, follow the enemy, and try to prevent the enemy carrying away the guns. Troops of Horse Artillery may accompany. French cavalry is on your left. Immediate. Airey."

Steve, you may be right about the extra clothing. And good catch on the
Oberscharfuehrer.
