Wow, how original... Not only we get the obligatory pointing German, but also extremely original "passing bottle" scene...

Yeah, but they're passing the bottle in winter!

While I do welcome new tanker figures, it would be good to get a set of tankers, preferably in Summer dress, standing around in relaxed or 'non-action' poses and maybe one or two not wearing their jacket.

Not to hard to find if you look. A few examples Alpine Miniatures Evolution Miniatures If you come back with "but I mean plastic" well the news release is about resin figures and if you want plastic check out the ones Masterbox are offerings. Masterbox web site LINK

I've got several of their featured winter German figures and I have to say that they are truly first-class in their sculpting and beautifully molded. Nice poses too! Definitely the company to turn to if you want winter period Germans.
