Figures in this scale from Trumpeter are still fairly rare, and l have to say after building the first of Trumpeter's large scale Soviet figures, they are great.
Inside the box are three sprues in light grey, with approx 29 well molded parts, a small set of etch for the Ppsh included, and a nice stand in black plastic. A nice addition is the choice of two heads inluded - one head bare the other with an officer's peak cap.
The only drawback is that the toso, legs and arms come in two halves, making for extra cleaning and preperation before painting, though this is nothing major.
The pose to me seems a little static but l am sure this can be improved with little modification.
In summary, this is a nice figure at a very affordable price that will make into a nice show piece. l like it.
Thanks to
