Everything looks nice but just seems kind of thrown together?

I don't think they would fire a bazooka that close to a tank or choose to engage the enemy with a 60mm bazooka instead of a 76mm cannon and MG guns.

Hmm, I looked again at the photos, that t/c is likely to be more than some surprised if that bazooka fires off.  Which, will likely cause the dude with the rifle grenade to have an AD, which will cause the second bazooka man no end of frustration I'm guessing.

Looked kinda weird to me too.  You've got an M4 right there and you're targeting tanks with a bazooka?    Not to mention the tank is in the backblast zone of the bazooka.  I must say, however, that the work on the figures, tank, and base are very nice.

I wondered about that, too, and why the enemy seems to be behind the tank.  Is the tank supposed to be broken down or something?  Maybe some cowering crew members could elucidate.
