Whatever they are – just brilliant that somebody decided to make them!

Rrobbyrobot26 Jul 2012 12:57 p.m. PST

And now for something completely different…

CPT Jake26 Jul 2012 1:03 p.m. PST

Could be Partisans too, not just German civilians.

@JJ: I suspect they are meant to be placed with the barrel on some type of wall or other support…

My kind of MG girls.

Lol…

altfritz26 Jul 2012 2:03 p.m. PST

The weapons are not included so you can supply them with LMGs with bipods if you like…

John D Salt26 Jul 2012 3:49 p.m. PST

More likely partisans than Germans, because two out of three of them are using the British grip (fingers over the top of the stock) rather than the German (fingers at the bottom of the stock).

All the best,

John.

John D Salt, spoken like as TRUE wargamer LOL

They also can be the famous french civilians (ex-lovers?) which support the germans (many tales about them after D Day by the GI).

For a Warzaw uprising diorama, perhaps?

flicking wargamer27 Jul 2012 4:44 a.m. PST

I was just going to say that Tango. There were plenty of accounts of French "civilians" fighting the allies after D-Day Normandy landings. My grandfather even commented on them, though his division did not get to Europe until November 44.

Only a bunch of wargaming geeks would look at those and start talking about the guns! LOL

Tango01 Supporting Member of TMP27 Jul 2012 10:49 a.m. PST

The dresses are a bit monochrome for the '40s. Most summer dresses were made from printed cotton -- like the red one in the middle.

Patrice27 Jul 2012 11:38 a.m. PST

Many bare legs.

Unpractical shoes for partisan warfare.

This is a manga.

Ruben Megido27 Jul 2012 12:15 p.m. PST

The blue dressed one looks like an asian girl…

Tango01 Supporting Member of TMP27 Jul 2012 10:42 p.m. PST

I insist that they looks french (smile)
Specially for the shoes.

The Viet Cong used an MG34 copy so they could be used in Vietnam. Very cute!
