I picked up a couple of Italeri reissues of some ESCI figure sets.This is the World War 2 Russian set with almost all of the figures wearing the classic infantryman's uniform of gymnastiorka shirt and M1940 helmet. Of interest are the specialist figures such as a female radio operator and a Cossack with horse.
The Airfix range of military figures is one of the iconic brands of plastic toy soldiers I grew up with. Airfix is a UK manufacturer of plastic scale model kits founded in 1939 by Humbrol and currently owned by Hornby, a famous UK model railway brand. This is the latest reissue of their classic Deutsche Afrika Korps, the German expeditionary force in Libya and Tunisia during the North African Campaign of World War II. The box contains 14 figures.
