Tale of Three Tigers
Still mucking about looking through the parts box for some decent crew figures . So I’m sort them out and came across this revelation
Bolt Action plastic tank crew figures : from left to right . #1 , the painted guy comes with the 234 Puma , the Stug and the Panzer III . #2 comes with the Panzer IV . #3 with a separate arm ( I think I’ve lost it ! ) comes with the Tiger I , and #4 of the group is your Tiger II commander . Bit a a variety in sizes there , I’m thinking that #1 & #3 compare quite well with Rubicon’s new plastic crews , and #2 seems a little on the hefty side , might work as a winter war crew figure in a padded style parka . #4 is the worst of the bunch . he just fits in the hatches with no room to spare , he really looks wrong for 28mm – 1/56 scale tanks . Anybody want one , I got 3 I don’t want . I think other 3 are OK as Commanders with just their heads out of the hatch , not really dynamic enough IMO for a cool looking diorama setting . The hunt continues
