Interesting set, with one small problem.  Lothar was a good half head taller than Manfred!

Correct Lothar was taller than Manfred which is why in the TMP piece we do say the set is inspired by the famous duo. We wanted the pilots to be of generic use and I felt if we made Lothar really tall that won't be of help when mixing with other figures.

If you want to make lothar taller its easy to do, snip off the legs, add some putty and repin. One of my many personal projects  :o

Hope that helps

Thanks for posting this Helen. Next up Italians and Late War French
Kind regards
