Is it Roco who made a German leaders set with Hitler, Göring and a few other in 1/87?
I can remember seeing Hitler portrayed in several larger scales as well.
Who else do you know about?

Hi Hobbyinovator (as you haven't signed off with your real name, I'll have to call you that).

An interesting question, but you haven't explained why you're asking?

It's nearly as pointless as Gordy's off topic posts! (ha ha, only joking Gordy...

......or am I?)

Cheers,
Jon.

Actually it started with me looking for any figure portraying Reinhard Heidrich, since I have been playing with the thought of making a diorama of his assassination. I couldn't find any fig and was planning to ask here, but I came to the idea of why not making this a kind of list thread of what third reich figures that are out there. To help other modelers with plans for portraying Third Reich leaders.

Manufacturers have indeed missed one. Hope someone finally releases a figure of Jurgen Stroop in 1944. Can't wait to begin a diorama of the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto.

 

[Blind Pew]

Tamiya's 120mm Rommel is excellent, I can vouch for that one.

Obviously didn't read post #3 then.

Usually manufacturers don't name 3rd reich leaders, making it more difficult to id these kits.

A Hitler/Goering/Rohm set in 1/35 http://www.planetfigure.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31844

In 1/35 Hitler has been also depicted by Jaguar shaking hand with HJ kid http://www.jaguarmodels.com/ppics/ja63100.jpg, as I think by Verlinden, titled as 'Party leader' (couldn't find it online).

In 90mm Andrea has a Third Reich series http://www.andrea-miniatures.com/market/AspsProductos/listado.asp?IdColeccion=128, Hitler x2, Goering and Heydrich (probably the nicest sculpts regarding this topic). I see Heydrich was already posted by Carl.

Hobbyinovator, if you are interested in some info regarding the assasination, let me know, I have photos of his Mercedes, untouched since, and the scene

Cheers

Billy Turnip: What? You mean it's out-of-line for me to even mention creating such a compelling diorama? What's 'political' in my interest in such an historic SS event? It's history, so it should be ok to recreate it in miniature, right?

 

[billyturnip]

Lol you'll have to get up earlier to catch me out on that old trick.

Roger.

*sigh* why do people who don't like the subject open the thread in the first place?

The depiction of WWII German infantry, navy or air force officers and enlisted men can be considered as no different from the depiction of their leaders, and they don't usually elicit the same kind of comments (usually rightly so IMO) so let's put the politics on hold can we?

[Nappy1]

Ok, Ok, Ok. I won't do the diorama of the Warsaw ghetto population being wiped out by the Waffen SS. I decided instead to do a smaller vignette of Stroop getting his neck reduced to a size 4 after the Nuremberg Trials.

 

[khorgor]

arrg come on guys. lets not get this thread locked.

I'm quite generally interested in seeing this list and hope a few more get added.

arrg come on guys. lets not get this thread locked.

A little judicious editing of a few posts and responses to them (including my one above) and problem solved.

And now for something related, and completely different......


Oskar Schindler, true, a civilian, but still, famous and a member of the party.

And if you are after a another in a similar vein, John Rabe.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Rabe

True they are both civilians, and don't wear the snazzy uniforms of the military, I would happily display those two next to a bust of Ghandi, not because of their affiliation, just because their stories are so interesting.

(I don't expect them to be kitted out, due to market forces.....that's my reality check, right there.)

my two bobs worth,

[gothicgeek]

I used to paint SS bands for a toy soldier company here in Whitby, they had an Adolf Hitler and a Herman Goering with his little Baton! We got to paint him in several pastel shades

Ah, lead soldiers eh, the start of our hobby

I have got to say both gentleman would be worthwhile figures. You have got me thinking, and I own a figure company.

 

[Jamie Stokes]

Jeff,
if you do make up some figures, let me know, I'll put an order in!

It would be great to see these two; their story is very interesting, and while WW2 & German, is different enough.......
