DML have just announced another 1/35th scale Figure Set.
6652 - Ostfront Winter Combatants 1942-43
Within the company's '39-45 Series, this New set consists of 4 figures, 2 German & 2 Soviet. As can be imagined, from the title, the figures are in cold-weather gear (well, one of the Russians is).
Hmmm... We've kinda seen it ALL before? Essentially useful, but not tremendously original. There seems to be a tendency to do these 'mixed' nationality sets, which, unless they're actually interacting, in my view seems a singularly pointless exercise.
Masterbox have become the 'masters' of this. They regularly release sets where two nationalities are 'connected' (usually in heavily animated combat). This New set from DML seems to have put four figures together which have nothing (apart from a vague geographical location) in common.
Nor are DML strangers to Östfront figure sets - they have done some brilliantly executed ones. This though seems like a bit of a 'repetition-too-far'.
