strumpionier 1942/43 whats the difference?
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, January 21, 2005 6:26 AM
Hey all
I've read that the Gen. Paulas (Paulus, what ever) was sent some Infantry Pionier Units to help try to finish off Stalingrad. I was wondering If one of the Dragon sets, the East Front strumpionoer 1942 or the Kursk strumpionier 1943, would work. I have the 1943 set and I know it would be too late for that set, but is there a big difference between the two. OR If someone knows of a better Infantry set that will foot the bill. I need a infantry pionier set that will pass for late 1942 Eastern Front.
Thanks Guys....And Gals....If there are any Gals?......

This is probably no help at all, but maybe you could compare the set you have with these figures and determine whether there are any serious differences?

Just a thought. I'll cross my fingers and hope that you get a better response :)

drucifer67,
Thanks man, that is one of the sets I'm thinking of buying, but I have way too many figs.

Peridexion,
You hit the nail on the head. Do I understand you, the 6146 or in SS camo...Well do you think it is possible to paint the smocks white and alter them alittle. Maybe give the idea that it is some kind of lite winter uniform (I dont know too much about the SS). One more option, I'm considering sanding down the roller up sleeves and adding putty to the arms. OR just using spare arms from the scrap box.
None the less you guys have been helpful, Thanks.
