Ready painted too.

But seriously, the MG42 is 48" long, making the vertically challenged chap holding it about 4'6" tall.

Wasn't the back end of the PF supposed to be held under the arm?

That is the correct firing position on the panzerfaust, and while I like the warlords plastic figures quite a bit, they definitely tend towards the short and stocky :(

According to these instructions I recently saw on the net the Faust was recommended to be fired from under the arm, over the shoulder, and from the waist. Apparently there was no wrong way to do it, except for with your buddies directly behind you!

Must be late war volksturm youth with the MG

They have really big hands…

Or, he's at an angle. If you measure the Mg42 from his right foot it does not reach his neck

Seems logical to issue the heaviest weapon to the smallest soldier -- Army logic, that is.

Probably a late war prototype chambering the .50 BMG round …
