HaT Wagons

Prototype HaT Industrie WWI German wagon. 1/72nd scale hard plastic.

Prototype HaT Industrie WWII German wagon in hard plastic, 1/72nd scale.

Wagons can be bare wood, gray, green or even camouflage.

While the horses are a bit small, I like them a lot. The wagons are flash free and fit together perfectly.

A Roco Stug III with the HaT wagon. A nice pair of models.

DAK

Italeri soft plastic Africa Corps figures in 1/72nd scale.

These figures have no flash and are nicely animated.

They only require the mortar bipod to put on the mortar guy and you are ready to go.

Three identical sprues. As you can tell from this close up photo, the detail is awesome.
These will go well with there Motorcycle set.

Wagons

Assembled photos of the prototype for the new HaT WWII wagon.

The horses are a bit on the small size, but as you can see from the photos they are certainly usable.

HaT 1/72nd scale World War I wagon.

Same horses as on the WWII wagon. Not bad, but a little small. Since they are prototypes the production horses may be larger.

I would buy 50 of them just like this and maybe swap out a few of the horses with other horses from other sets. I don't mind having a variety of different horse types in the collection.

Italeri German Paratroopers, WWII

Caesar Miniatures broke the terrible, dreaded curse of the 1/72nd scale German paratroopers. Italeri can now make 1/72nd scale German WWII paratroopers and not have the sets be terrible since the spell is broken.

The set has three identical sprues of figures in semi-hard soft plastic. The mortar bipod and the back pack radio need to be glued to the figures but that's the only assembly. These guys are in tropical uniform and are good for Africa, Sicily, and southern Russia.

The figures are flash free and have excellent detail.

All the figures are pretty good, but I don't care for the looking right, pointing the gun to the left pose. Always look in the direction your gun is pointed, or always point your gun in the direction you are looking.

This close up shows the fine detail of the figures. More pics of them soon.
