your workbench…
Miniaturas Fortes New
Release - January 2013:
100
figures limited edition (75mm, 1/24 scale)
Always a popular subject – this German
paratrooper form early in WWII comes in resin with two different head choices –
one with his standard short brimmed “Fallschirmschützen-Stahlhelm
38” jump helmet whilst the other helmet shows the soldier’s features a
little more with his helmet off …
His torso is replete with his
close fitting jump smock over his regular uniform. Over this smock is the parra’s
webbing on which his arsenal of ammo pouches for MP-40, main belt and M-31 canteen
(in "Fliegerblau" remember) he carries several stick grenades tucked
into his belt and his webbing as well as his trusty SMG MP-40 – Which you can chose if you want the stock folded or extended and forward or rearward - and don't forget
his pistol in his holster on his left hip. He also wears some early war tall
lace up boots which cover his pants.
This early war “Green Devil” of
the German Luftwaffe is only going to be cast in a set of 100 figures – you can
get them from Diego’s site http://www.miniaturasfortes.com/ - alternatively check out
his Facebook
page on which he is always updating you of his exploits!
