Dragon Models have just announced another Axis figure release in 1/35th scale. Oh dear, not another, I hear some of you groan. This, though, is a little on the unusual side...
The New, 1/35th scale Figure release is:
6674 - German "Blue Division" Spanish Volunteers Eastern Front 1942-43
Consisting of four figures in a mixture of cold-weather gear with weapons and equipment provided as 'Gen 2 Gear' . There does seem to be a fairly good level of animation in the set and certainly there's been some thought put into the mixture of uniform styles. A welcome addition is the Russian sheepskin coat...
As to the subject, 'La División Azul' (250. Infanterie-Division) is, personally speaking, one of the more repulsive subjects that could be chosen. Consisting of the 'Hard-Liners' of Franco's 'Falange' and led by some of the dictatorship's more ideologically-sound professional officers. Their contribution on the Eastern front was significant (in numbers) militarily it was of little significance.
Saying that, the set should be highly versatile in any Winter Setting and while there are other sets of this type, it should be pretty useful.
