1940-41 German Infantry (Zvezda)

Another infantry battalion to add to my German collection for this era


Command section is Airfix, the two machinegun platoons are Revell, and the mortar platoon is a Zvezda/Pegasus combination


All of the rifle and support weapon platoons are Zvezda.
First Company


Second


Third


Battalion.
I added token white piping to the collars and shoulder boards where possible. 

This could be the best set of German infantry figures (for this era) in 1/72 ever produced.
My only gripe would be the odd grenade shoved down the boot.... ouch!

  1. I thought I was long done buying more plastic infantry but I may have to get a Zvezda set now ;)

    1. Thanks Dave. I did not know Zvezda would not be making full sets anymore - what a shame as they are some of the best figure sets you can buy
