Description:

Arabs in Ambush

Unpainted plastic soldiers in 1/72 scale depicting Rif rebels during the Rif wars of the early 20th century.

Box contains 52 figures in 13 different poses, 4x equal sprues format. Includes 4 machine guns which resembles to a Vickers MK I. While not impossible Rif rebels were mostly armed with French or Spanish weapons of the time and older, and the Vickers MK I was available on French hands in limited numbers (around 2000 ordered in 1914) how many of them survived the WWI and if so, if they were delivered to the Foreign Legion from where they could have passed to the rebels are too much questions to answer. A Hotchkiss machine gun would have been far more easy.

Again, strelets make another mistake about name this set “Arabs” , forcing us to make an imagination exercise and take the word Arabs in a very open meant. Maybe the set would have been better subscribed to WWI Arabs and Lawrence of Arabia time, instead of Rif War.
