D: No offense, but those models make it look like DoD for the special olympics.

...? They look great to me, no idea what you're talking about...

What's that red thing on some of the STGs? These guys are not my cup of tea. Actually I'm lookng for a decent axis replacement.

If there was a way to only have these on the winter maps, I'd usem in an instant. But seeing as how the non-winter maps outnumber the winter ones, I won't be using. But I think they look great. And the P model on the mp44 looks good, but shouldn't it have a backpack along with it?

ANSWER:
Cheeto
This is the Vampir night vision scope developed by the Germans originally for their tanks, and then modified to work for the infantry. The big lamp on top emitted infra red light, the scope under it allowed the shooter to see the light. This was issued primarily to StG troopers, snipers with K-43's, and MG's. It was powered by a big battery worn on the back (wooden case + lead battery = heavy f*cker).

No offense, but they really look like they all got a problem with their back and neck. They look like they´re freezing :p

Good job nevertheless, definately some unique work, but the head positions look really a bit strange ;)

they kinda remind me of those old war movies where you never saw a german infantry men's face :p

God I must be old or summat cos i remember the first time these were released lol

Nice to see them make a come back.

I've ben meaning to revisit my cold weather Germans, that was, I believe, the first player set I ever made. Perhaps I'll bump it up on my list of things to do.
