    Overall its a nice composition. Just wondering if the right arm and hand of the trooper supporting the MG34 gunner is too long ?

    I hope the straps are provided as well. (The last time i had to fashion the straps out of construction paper)

    I thought Jeff had been a bit quiet lately. Now we know why. Another fine release from one of the masters of WWII Germans.

    Fully agree with previous opinions. It is the next time when Jeff proved that he is a master in 1/16 WW2 Germans subject.

    My one small complaint concerns the MG34 gunner. When comparing him to the second figure, in my opinion he looks too static and to calm. Of course it depends how you interpret the scene. I am reading it as depicting two guys in fire of combat, MG34 gunner is firing to some enemies in front of him and in the same time his comrade spots another group of enemies approaching from the left flank. So my suggestion is that MG gunner's face should also express the atmosphere of being in the middle of the battle - shouting mouths or grimace on his face showing fury and high emotions, could add even more dynamism and realism to the whole scene.

    Even though what I wrote above, I still find it a wonderful set and I will buy it for sure.

    Overall I agree with Artur. Turning the MG gunners head to be glancing at where his friend is pointing would tie them together a bit better as well.

    Love it. Each time Jeff brings a new figure out I seem to say 'Now this is my favorite' so here I am saying it again. I will however add that I think it will reign as favorite for a long time. (see you all again at the next release posting 'Oh,now this is my favorite' Happy holidays everyone
