Those Germans in sun helmets remind me of the old 1930s Tarzan movie where Nazis take over a town and Tarzan must free captives before they are shot.  Hmmmmm...

They are on the Perry WIP Plastics section with more pics :).

Extra heads are to be included in the 8TH Army set to create Indian troops and SAS/Long range desert group.

Each set will feature 14 different torso types and some heavy weapons are to be included in each set.

Both sets will also be suitable for part of the Italian Campaign too.

It was a propaganda movie, and made 1942 or 43 hmm.

Indian heads are an excellent move with these - definitely under-represented in 28mm.  I'm considering the Eritrea/Abyssinian campaigns...

A big thumbs-up from me for the pith helmets too - really useful!

Fingers crossed they will do some Italians too. Lots of good skirmish scenarios in Sicily spring to mind already.

Just wondering if these 8th Army sculpts could be used for troops in the Far East against the Japanese in the earlier stages of the conflict there?
