Review

 

A nice addition to the German WWII range, Falkner has a fresh faced look of a newly commissioned officer. The head sculpt has a steely determined look and has blond hair.

He is loaded with 'new' gear - mostly reworked existing items - that includes a folding entrenching tool and tunic with 'bellows' pockets. Most of the equipment items have been given the well used or weathered treatment.

The uniform is well made and finished with nice 'French' cuffs and dark green collar and subdued buttons. A nice touch is the field grey covers for the officer shoulder boards - to make them less obvious to an enemy.

The PPSH has been given a new sling and the helmet a leather band. The bread bag now has buttons on the attachment loops as per the real item and the entrenching tool a reworked wood effect handle which, I think, is a little bit on the heavy side making it look more like a striped candy stick.

 

Overall: Another good addition to the range featuring some nicely reworked equipment items. Get one for your collection.
