Warriors is one of the product lines that come from the
creative minds of VLS. They've produced a wide range of resin
military figures that feature great detail and simple construction.
Here is another release of interest. Click on the photo to see
an enlarged view.
In this set, we have part one of a two part set of Russian tank
riders. Unlike previous tank rider sets, these figures are
posed for action, not sitting on the engine deck. The cover
art shows five figures in this scene (one is barely visible
on the right). This set provides three of the five figures,
set 3 has the other two.
Of the three figures in this set, one is looking ahead while
is comrade is making some point with his commander, who is
gesturing to the tank commander (not shown) to continue forward.
This set would be great on the back of a T-34/85 approaching
the outskirts of Berlin, before the tank riders came in range
of German snipers.
You can purchase this and any of the Warriors Scale Model line
from your local hobby retailer or directly from VLS'
website at www.modelmecca.com. They have some of the fastest
mail order delivery in this industry - give them a try!
My sincere thanks to VLS for
this review sample!
