Mars – 72130 – German Volkssturm Defenders WWII Part II

Description:

German Volkssturm Defenders WWII Part II

Unpainted plastic soldiers in 1/72 scale depicting the last defenders of Berlin 1945, the German Volkssturm. Though the Volkssturm name applied to many other units raised in the last years and months of the war, the set is clearly depicting those militias fighting in the streets of Berlin during the last days of the war.

This set complements the earlier release Mars – 72117 – German Volkssturm Defenders, adding 40 figures in 8 different and new poses.

The poses are an interesting mix of weapons and “uniforms” with some really nice pose while other remain more common, though the repetition is maybe too high, you get every pose 5 times. Sculpture quality is in the high rank of the brand quality though casting may present some problems as usual in Mars products. In any case the figures are a nice addition to complete the last days of the Reich.
