Revell 1:72 Scale Figure Review

German Panzergrenadiers of World War Two, 1939–1945, 1:72 Miniatures Revell 02511.

Panzergrenadiers advancing alongside their Sd.Kfz. 251/1 armoured personnel carrier somewhere in Stalingrad. The veteran Panzergrenadiers in this scene are wearing the field-grey M.1936 Einheitsfeldbluse, whereas the more recent recruits have already been issued the M.1943 uniform which differs in the colour of the collar and shoulder straps. The kneeling NCO in this figure set carries a captured PPSh41 submachine gun, a common practise on the Eastern Front and particularly in the bitter streetfighting at Stalingrad. The half-track has been painted 7021 Schwarzgrau with 30 % white added for aerial perspective.
