Well, that's a must have for me as my Grandad was an ex-'Desert Rat' Corparal Moulding & survived the war (He lived to see 87 years... )

Don't normally go in for WWII but this is superb. That pose really does it.

Look at the quality of the hands as well - this kit is a superstar. Difficult to paint though. In the right hands, this will be a joy to see.

Towards time so I expected a figure of a British soldier. Wonderful !!

This is a really nice subject , love the details from Moz , the water bottle in hand the bottle's webbing , the baynot and weapon looks good(is there a sling?)

Really character face as well

As Blind Pew said in the right hands painted up it will be a joy to see indeed.

Good option for various units s well adding flashes etc

A good companion piece to the Afrika Corps figure also from MMM as well

Good release. Thanks for sharing

Nice.
Hopefully it will go well with the old Verlinden Desert Rat, which was one of his best.

Thanks for the comment Kev, there is no sling with the rifle but I'm sure it will be easy enough to scratch build one.

A very nice sculpt indeed, full of character, I can see quite a few hours of painting in this.

This looks nice. Some WWII 8th Army figures can tend to look a bit comical with shorts that are a bit too "Carry On Up The Jungle", but not this one.

If the casting is up to scratch, I might be tempted by this.
