Warriors 1/35
Russian Tank Riders #3

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 two 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 two of the five figures, set 2 has the other three.

Of the two figures in this set, one is hanging off of the turret grab iron as if waiting to jump down to the ground. His partner is sitting on the rear of the deck getting ready to signal some event. 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!
