Panzer Ace, the T-70 is definitely an itty-bitty teeny-weeny tank 🤣 The historical vehicle had only two crew with the commander having to also be the gunner and loader, which isn’t an ideal arrangement…
But First Legion did an excellent job on both their T-70 models giving them excellent detail...
A compact vignette display of Soviet troops advancing during Operation Uranus in November 1942 on the Stalingrad front. The display features some classic First Legion pieces purchased as part of their big sale, including some winter Russians and the winter T-70 tank. I’ve had the green T-70 for...
Not that I need another JJD FW-190, but the model is a solid tooling and this latest repaint is an interesting and unique choice given it being a radar-equipped night fighter 😎
Awesome pic, Duke! And Rob, yours is great as well. There’s just something fascinating about the urban combat in WWII and you’ve both captured it perfectly.
Thanks guys! Definitely a scary scene for sure… If one looks closely, you’ll even see some discarded US weapons and tank parts. Had the Cold War turned hot (and it came close a few times in the postwar era) such a scene of Soviet tanks steamrolling across Western Europe could have been entirely...
I have both the Wolverines and they are fantastic! You’ll want to get the tank riders first the winter version too, if you go with that example. However, I’d totally recommend getting both!
Here’s a few pics of my setups with each:

The Soviet IS-7 Granite tank (LE300) from First Legion’s World of Tanks series, while not historically...
I really hoping FL will make some more Soviet tankers, particularly figures designed to actually fit in the hatches of the T-34/85 (never mind their T-34/76, T-70, IS-7, and T-62 tanks). I got a couple of the old RUSSTAL022 figures back in the day and should have gotten a couple more…
Emanuel, only the top commander’s hatch opens on First Legion’s Kursk Panzer III M. The side hatches on the turret do not open. This is similar to First Legion’s other Panzer IIIs, BTW. I’ve got a War Park tank commander in my FL Panzer IIIM display:
