Hello dear Planeters,
I suppose that many of you know the famous figure of German MG42 gunner Totenkopf, Kharkov 1943 which was sculpted in the 90s by John Rosengrant for KIRIN.
That figure was released in 1/9 (200mm) scale and now for those who prefer more compact scale, Jeff Shiu released his version of this figure in 1/16 (120mm) scale.
Jeff’s figure meets today’s highest standards in matter of desing as well as amount and quality of details, so even though it is almost half of the size of its older and bigger brother, it is not worse in any aspect at all.
Title: 'Holding the line' Kharkov 1943
Code: JS120048
Scale: 1/16 (120mm)
Type: full figure with scenic base
Material: gray resin
Number of parts: 23 + base
Sculptor: Jeff Shiu

Figure is packed in sturdy cardboard box typical for Jeff Shiu products, with photo showing complete figure from the front. The second foto showing figure from the back is included inside the box.
Inside the box we find 23 parts (10 parts for ammo belts) plus scenic base, all nicely casted in gray resin.
Body
Arms
Legs
MG42
Gear
Ammo belts
Base
I could not stop myself to assemble the figure temporarily using BlueTack
Final conclusion
Definitely a "must have" for all fans of WWII German figures in this scale.
