The Figure set comprises of two 1/35th scale figures cast in light grey resin. A close inspection of the contents of each bag shows the usual outstanding quality of detail and casting. The double figure set is supplied in a small poly box with a colour insert showing the box art and painting reference.

The commander cupola figure has a full torso and the second figure (tank driver) has partial torso for making it easier to mount the internal platform below the drivers hatch that is included with some tank kits.

Lovely sculpts, as always. One thing that always strikes me about Taesung's sculpts: why the obsession with winter clothing? I dunno. I'm glad I do not live where it is cold..... :cool:
