I'm pretty sure those two are Laurel and Hardy, busy undermining the German War effort. Only Ollie has taken off his Hitler Moustache and given it to Stan, so no-one will recignise them.

It's like a 28mm figure comparison but in real life... we just need a ruler included for perspective and someone to contribute "I prefer the chunkier figures, they look the part after being painted up better".  :D
