Fungus Fighters

US Army in the attack.


Fungus Fighters!


Weird War Two as Japanese Fungus Fighters take on the American troops!


They are small but they take a lot of killing!


Automatic weapons fire is the best thing.


Heavy slugs ripping into them.


But the monsters keep coming.


It's hard to kill something that does not bleed!

Halftrack

This set includes troops working, and operating the vehicles and shooting.


Man in the turret and man loading.


Dismounted tanker with pistol.


The version of the M3 halftrack was ordered by Patton when his troops were training in California.


He was always looking for ways to aid the troops.


Overhead cover with a slit to look out for all round vision.


Still, exit out the back and top would have been slow.

Tank Crews

Orion USA Tank Crew in Summer Dress in 1/72nd scale.


Consider the name Summer Dress, perhaps a Winter Dress in the pipeline?


Tank crews have maintenance to do all day, every day.


A log to give more traction.


A giant wrench to remove a bolt.


Hard work for one, no work for the other!

Early American WWII troops by Strelets, set 2.


These figures would work from about 1930 to about 1942.


Like set one, a lot of firing poses.


A good mixture of weapons too.


US troops used the Springfield, M1 rifle, Thompson, shotgun, and .45 caliber pistol in the early war period.


Sniper rifle.


Troops moving up.
