The painting of the Hungarian NBC suit soldier is incorrect (guess its the fault of the Osprey book). Hungarian Peoples Army had olive green NBC gear and various camouflage onesies, but no camouflage NBC gear.

Does Italeri offer these in a modern release 1/35? They'd be useful if the figures were appropriately detailed.

Esci did versions of these in 1/32 or 1/35 scale, but they were simply up-scaled versions of the 1/72 figures, with the expectant detail issues such figures would have. They looked more like dollar store army men than scale models. Hopefully Italeri doesn't repop these; not worth the money.
