Wehrmacht Camping

¹⁄35

An interesting three figure set is on the way from Dragon with some Germans doing a little camping.

Dragon Models has announced a new figure set due for release in March 2014. The new set consists of three German anti-tank soldiers getting ready to bed down for the night, and included in the set is a Zeltbhan. The Zeltbahn was an item carried by most, if not all German soldiers in World War 2, that could be used as a rain cap, stretcher, and when combined with others, a tent.

Right now i think this kit could be complementary for those gearing up figures from DML 6574 - German Warriors 1940-41 set.

One Zeltbahn will be more or less useless on its own ... hopefully they have a few that can be erected as a tent. I dont see any other way, rigid material would be of use?

Anyone notice that DML has moved from their usual 4 figure sets to 3 figure sets with the last couple of releases? (The "Chow Time" kit 6697 was reviewed here on Armorama) I hope this not a continuing trend. I can honestly say I'm not paying top dollar for just three figures in a kit. Not to mention that these releases are boring and don't interest me. Jeff

Now, if they included the 75mm howitzer, that would be really interesting. They (DML) have to include something to make up for one less figure.

DML don't have the time to sculpt a fourth figure - they're too busy re-releasing really old stuff. Take a look at their 'new' releases for December/January. If they had done any retooling it would be OK, but these older figures are substandard compared to current production, and will be a disappointment.
