This set is really rather an unusual assortment. Some of the basics that might normally be expected are missing, such as anyone firing his rifle. On the whole the poses are OK but there are some that need further analysis. The last man in the second row has his arm at a very unnatural angle which was doubtless done to make the life of the mould-maker easier? The third soldier in the third row is kneeling and reaching out, but it is unclear why? The two figures carrying the MG34s are a real surprise. The first is clearly just moving the weapon, which is an unusual but perfectly acceptable pose. However he clearly has his finger on the trigger, which is quite odd.His colleague is worse and gives the suggestion that he is firing the weapon ‘from the hip’. Clearly he is not, partly because this is not how you handle a 12 kg machine gun. All rather strange and not what be tolerated by a professional soldier.Italeri have lately restored their standing for good quality sculpting and we find more of the same here. Detail is clear and sharp, while clothing looks natural and human proportions are spot on. In a few places there is some excess flash/plastic (e.g. between weapon and body), and some corners have been cut like the bipod for the MG34, which is in line with the barrel rather than at 90 degrees to it, but in general this is a good job. The mortar comes with the bipod stand separate, and this fits easily into the weapon to make a pretty good model. In making a set of Afrikakorps figures in this scale means you are contending with some excellent brands and sets already out there. Italeri are to be applauded for taking on the challenge and in the main they have fared very well - and overall this is a good set of figures.

They arrived the next day, the figures are brilliant. You could use them for tropical or European dress, just change the colours of the trousers. Loved the mortar team with observer and radio operator. Only draw back no number 2 for the mortar team. A machine gunner would have been good.

mouldings generally very good, but with some excessive infill which can only be removed with a scalpel (CAREFULLY) and painting covering up...

This is an excellent set of warrior models befitting the whole range and with a series of poses which make for realism as well as variety.
