"Warlord Games plastic Fallschirmjager Review" Topic

Another week another review, this time I look at Warlords new plastic Fallshrimjager set link

Yet more temptation! Warlord really know how to hit me in the pocket.

They are the masters at it! This set is easily their best I think. I love the head with the ciggy, that alone is worth price of admission for me

Those look really great. My only complaint, as a Early War fan, is that there are not enough pistol holsters on the sprues. The guys that were actually airdropped/landed all had pistols. I laboriously sculpted holsters onto a bunch of the Black Tree and Crusader figures to make my reinforced platoon.

They are lovely models. What I like is that alot of them don't have all the y straps and gas mask straps, so it's that bit easier to get them looking dropped in or even in light fighting order

I love the newer plastics from Warlords, but sadly these last two sets are missing what I really loved about the early war sets, being the prone miniatures. I loved the prone MG34 option in the early war set.

I find the prone models whilst cool, soon run out of utility, and for me at least I ended up with them just getting wasted.I may well convert some of these to prone in the future though…
