Nicely done, but "Kunstoff"? Airfix all the way, I reckon.

I hate to be picky, but the foregrip on a Thompson is made of wood, not gunmetal….

Yes they Airfix…

Unashamedly splitting hairs here, but these are definitely the infantry set, not the commandos.
(The commando tommy-gunners had M1928's with pistol foregrips)
This set formed half of Airfix's 54mm WWII British Infantry – the other half was the brilliant 'Infantry Support Group' set, with mortars, Vickers MMGs, ammo carriers and an erroneous bazooka.

The support group was "brilliant" – and I wished as a kid that they had released similar sets for the Germans as well.

And the bazooka – my Action mags were full of thme – nary a PIAT to be seen…

Happy days
