A nice looking figure but what's he sitting on? I find it hard to believe there's a set of steps on U47, or any submarine for that matter, that size. Not very U Boot-ish for me.

Roger, (waiting to be proved wrong.)

Its the metal framework/guard around the conning tower I think.

Mr U-47 is back!

Nice figure!
@Roger: I think he is sitting on the rail next to the 2cm AA Gun. On the far right on the picture: http://www.bunker-kundschafter.de/U47.jpg I know it's a crappy pic but it shows the U47 very well.

Not a great fan of WW2 figures but this is a cracker.

I really like this figure. I will probably get it and screw it up like I do so many others!

Hi Guys

Just a question if anybody can answer, did the real Günter Prien have a slightly deformed left hand, only it looks like the fingers on the left hand are a bit short on this figure, other than that its a good, looking figure

Do not think it looks too deformed from here......still way more historically accurate than that aviator bust in your Avatar! LOL I kid......I kid.......
