German Tank Crew 1939-40
Gaso.Line Kit #50330
1:48 Scale
Review by Terry Ashley
Each figure has the full body cast in one piece with just the arms separate and the usual casting blocks and some minor casting seams down one side to be removed before assembly.
Each figure wears the early war tanker’s uniform and large beret of the time with excellent uniform details including crisply defined lapels, pockets and realistic fabric folds as well as nice facial features.
The two standing figures are designed to be posed together with one holding a small map board with the other pointing to the map with the half figure designed to fit into a vehicle hatch with arms resting on the sill.
Assembly was straightforward as you would expect with so few parts and the you have to remind yourself they are in 1:48 and not the larger 1:35 scale and will certainly enhance any of the available or soon to be available kits in this scale.
Highly recommended for 1:48 vehicle fans.
