Figure reviews
OUT FOR A SPIN
Here’s a great addition for ICM’s Model T 1913 Speedster (24015), with a driver and passenger dressed up for a drive in the countryside; it would also be ideal for its Roadster (24001).
GALLIC AIRMEN
PJ Production has produced the perfect accompaniment for any 1/72 Rafale (regardless of whether it’s a single-seater or twin-stick variant), in the form of a pair of well-cast pilots.
IMPERIAL CREWS
This mix of airmen and groundcrew will make for an instant World War One German aircraft vignette, as it comprises three single-piece figures.
ARMED WORKER
ToRo Model’s splendid Silesian Uprising figures are joined by a resin four-piece armed railway company worker, complete with a styrene two-part rifle, courtesy of a collaboration with ICM.
TACTICAL WATCH
Depicted in the kneeling position and armed with a Beretta 92-series pistol and slung M4A1 carbine, ICM’s fourth Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team member makes for an imposing presence.
RODENT FORCES
Here’s another chance to depict small-scale ‘Desert Rats’, with the return of Airfix’s 1/76 8th Army under the Vintage Classics banner. It contains 45 figures, plus a pair of two-piece Vickers machine guns and tripods.
MIGRANT WARRIORS
The wealth of options provided by Victrix’s Anglo-Danes package ensures the 60 highly detailed figures are ideal for any diorama, figure painting or wargaming project.
War-Weary Soldiers
This newly tooled selection of 1/35 figures from Tamiya represents five Wehrmacht infantrymen as they appeared during World War Two’s ‘middle’ period.
Loaders and Fixers
Although intended for its ‘Art of Tactic’ wargaming system, Zvezda’s quintet of 1/72 Luftwaffe ground crew – including a bomb-carrying trolley – is equally suitable for adding to aircraft maintenance dioramas.
Post-War Breakaway
ToRo Model has continued its range of Silesian Uprising figures with that of Lt Robert Oszek, who formed a naval special assault squad and was involved in the battle of Annaberg in May 1921.
