Product Description
Great Britain's armies had suffered cruelly at the hands of the ferocious Japanese assaults of 1941 and 1942, leading some to think of the simple Japanese soldier as an invincible foe in the steaming jungles of the Far East.
Brigadier Orde Wingate thought otherwise, organising long penetration columns of British, Indian and Burmese troops to plunge unsupported behind the Japanese lines and raise havoc on the road rail and supply trains.
This box set contains a metal 10-man section:
- NCO with rifle
- 2-man Bren gun LMG team
- 7 riflemen
He chose regular soldiers – the King’s Liverpool Rifles and Gurkhas, for instance – and trained them for astonishingly arduous marches and vicious battles with a ruthless enemy. They raided the Japanese where they would be least expected, carrying all they needed on their backs and on the backs of their trusty mules, and receiving essential supplies by air drops where possible.

Fun sculpts.
These are metal sculpts, some folks may find this annoying if you are use to plastic models. But I find that they have a truly lovely artist hand to the sculpt and each mini is actually unique to paint as they aren't all just the same 3d model with a different pose. I really enjoyed these and if you like painting and enjoy seeing a humans hand in an ever increasingly digital world pick em up.
