Well i believe is a prototype so maybe will be corrected, but seems he doesn't wear boots or puttes..the short puttees are typical of a second world war landser...

Well spotted, its already been changed but we like to see if anybody can spot the 'deliberate' mistakes!

This is another great figure for the Great War from TGM. As mentioned by others, WW2 has had plenty of attention, now it's time for some Great War material for a while, like maybe the next 4 years, at a minimum. :wink2:^&grin -- Al

The "Y" strap harness was only issued to cavalry in WW1, as the infantry pack was designed to support the belt. Although some are rarely seen being worn by members of sturm units, the usual was to use a spare strap from the bread bag. I believe the "Y" strap was not on general issue until 1934.

Good catch. I'm so used to seeing the 'Y' strap that I didn't even notice it. -- Al
