Mustang
Productions makes its debut with a nice trio of GI tank crew men.
The half figures are not necessarily a team, as evident by the one
in a T-shirt while the other two look dressed for cooler weather.
Indeed, the short-sleeved soldier would work nicely as either a
Marine or in a Mediterranean or European summer setting. He is the
only figure with a separate arm, which leans on the tank surface.
He holds a microphone in his right hand.
The
other two figures wear the ubiquitous winter combat jacket. One
sports the M3 shoulder holster, which differed from the M7 holster
by only having one strap. Tankers preferred that latter because
the additional chest strap helped keep the holster close to the
body and prevent it from snagging on the tank.
Dave
Bighia has nicely sculpted the figures, and faces are nicely animated.
But it appears there is a mold tear under the helmet of the shoulder
holster figure, and a bit of extra resin on the right neck between
the helmet and collar will need to be trimmed out. There are slight
seams and a tad of flash that will need only a quick clean up.
Mixing
these GIs in with tankers from Warriors or Verlinden will help give
your crews some distinction and variety.
