PSC Germans


Plastic Soldier Company, WWII German hard plastic figures in 1/72nd scale. This is a great figure advancing to contact.

This pose has a choice of either rifle or submachine gun. With three sprues you can do at least one of each. A simple quick couple drops of glue and you are done.


Ammo bearer. He is carrying the machine gun ammo. In my rules the MG needs a crew of three to fire indirect mg fire. A crew of two to fire sustained large amounts of ammo.


This guy is a bit flat but a nice pose none the less.




Kneeling firing rifleman. I like that the head and eye is down along the sights as if he is really aiming the rifle.

Plastic Soldier Company


Plastic Soldier Late War Germans.

These are 1/72nd scale hard plastic soldiers, with no flash.


They are attached to the sprue with only a small tab holding the figures on the sprue making removal from the spure very easy.


The set has three identical sprues. This is one of two machine gun poses. The arm with the mg is separate and glues easily.



Standing rifleman pose. The soldiers wear the late war low boots. Great figures, the same set is supposed to be made in 15mm and 28mm too.

Orion

These are the 1/72nd scale Orion AA guns mounted on little styrene bases.


I sprayed the grass with white glue and water, once dry I sprayed the whole thing again with Dullcote.


This really helps hold the grass down and makes a nice solid base.


I use Woodland Scenics Blended Turf for my ground cover.



It matches well with my table top which is covered with indoor / outdoor carpet.

Plastic Soldier Company

This week I got the new Late War German Infantry from Plastic Soldier company.

They are actually made in the UK rather in China.


Three identical sprues of hard plastic figures, with no flash and no errors.


The sizing is nice, shown here with a Revell 1/72nd scale soldier. More as I trim them off the sprue.
