Ref: PT-31
Review by: Bill Curtis
Initial Assessment
This is not a new kit, but one I picked up from a model show earlier this year. The model consists of a complete body, two arms and a head with the field cap.
Accuracy
The uniform detail and “cut of the cloth” is very good and represents the panzer uniform well, which stands up well to checks against pictures of the uniform in reference books.
Quality
The quality of the figure is very good with nice detail, but there are some parting lines that should clean-up easily. Some care will need to be exercised when the resin pour plugs are removed. I dry fitted one arm and the square locating plug and hole works well and one should need little or no filler on the joint.
Instructions
There are no written instructions but on the box are three pictures of the finished figure which shows the colours used.
Decals
None.
Conclusions
This is a nicely posed panzer crewman who has rather a dour expression. The anatomy is good as is the uniform with correct detail. This company has a range of figures including some civilian and is well worth a look at when you are looking for a figure to crew your current project.
Highly recommended.
