Medieval Russian Druzhina








Medieval Russian Druzhina from Strelets sets Army of Alexander Nevsky (082) and Russian Medieval Horsemen (017). These Russian produced figures have been criticized for being of inferior quality in terms of casting, sculpting and moldmaking. Though the molds are indeed horrible -- imagine trying to cut-off a spear in 20mm scale attached to a sprue the size of your thumb -- I, however, find them quite charming and reminiscent of cast lead figures :) I'm weird that way.

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.
