New Stalingrad Release - Opel Blitz and all the trimmings! (1 Viewer)

[FirstLegion]

We are very pleased to announce the start of the pre-order of our Stalingrad grey Opel Blitz truck plus a handful of accessory sets that really complement it very well. The truck itself is VEH006 and it is complemented by GERSTAL030-GERSTAL034 which include figures loading crates and gas cans, a new version of our Supplies Accesory Set, and 4 different seated passengers. The seated figures are extremely flexible in that they sit perfectly in the back of the Opel or can be used equally well as additional tank riders. I personally love the look of a tank covered in figures and when combined with set GERSTAL015 you can now put 7 unique figures (plus commander) on our Panzer III or Stug models. They also sit nicely on the boxes of the accessory set.

VEH006 Opel Blitz Truck 24th Panzer Division - $299.95
GERSTAL030 German Infantry Moving Large Ammunition Crate - $119.95
GERSTAL031 German Infantry Lifting Gas Can - $59.95
GERSTAL032 German Supplies Accessory Set - $59.95
GERSTAL033 Seated German Infantry Set 1 - $114.95
GERSTAL034 Seated German Infantry Set 2 - $114.95

This is our first real venture into the logistical side of the war with some non-combat figures for our Stalingrad range so we sincerely hope you enjoy the change of pace. Fear not, though, additional (and much needed) combat troops are coming including lots more Russians!

Best,

Excellent releases Matt, I like the fact that the seated infantry can be used not only in the Opel Truck but also fit on the Stugs and Panzers if one wants to use them that way....Well thought out...........Now we may soon need a Tiger or King Tiger to fit all these tank riders on one tank{sm4}:wink2:

I just started collecting the Stanlingrad series. I recieved my first 4 yesterday in the mail and I think they are very nice. I got 3 germans and one russian. I cant wait to order more.

Also, I think it wouldbe cool to see FL to make the italians and romanians for this series as well.
