Using the same frames from the original set, this will contain 3 heavy weapons sprues, and 2 of the main infantry sprues, allowing you to build a huge number of heavy weapons support troops.
This set allows you to build up to:
- 3x MG42's on tripod (+crew)
- 3x 81mm mortars (+crew)
- 4x MG42 on bipod
- 3x Panzerschreks
- 9x Panzerfausts
Plus regular infantry with MP40's, STG44's & riflemen.
Every figure in your platoon can be made differently as we have provided a lot of arm and head options for you to choose from. There are plenty of MG42's and a good selection of MP40's and StG 44's. Separate stick grenades and hands holding stick grenades are included so any figure can be converted with these items.
The figures are wearing Zeltbahns and camo smocks. This distinguishes them as some of the better trained, equipped and motivated German soldiers from 1944 to 1945 such as Panzer Grenadiers. We have a mix of helmets, some with covers and some uncovered plain steel helmets and some filed caps and bare heads to add masses of variety to your platoon.
We have spent a lot of time making sure the figures are accurate in their dress and equipment and would really like to thank the experts who have helped us in this task. Also we have ensured that the figures scale well with other popular WW2 models that people may have in their collections.
