Nitto Figure set 1 & 2

1/20 Nitto Figure set 1 & 2

With the new figure set coming from Hasegawa (latest news I got off the Ma.K forum), I present you the older Nitto Figure sets 1 & 2. These are figures bundled from the other Nitto releases. Figure set 1 (top) features Mercenary troops: the SAFS Pilot, Jerry Pilot & our favourite Eddy Amsel. Figure set 2 (bottom), Shutorial forces, includes the Krote mechanic, Fledermaus pilot & Flieg Pilot. The figures are of Nitto quality, soft details and need more work to look particularly nice. They are of a different color than the khaki sprue(pinkish/salmon color) when bundled together in the box, and are packaged stapled to the instruction card. Additional camo cards belonging to the Nitto boxes are given, with the figure cards as well. Now you might ask what's a figure set good for? Well I think it is a good place to get 1/20 figures for Ma.K dioramas, and especially if you like the Eddy Amsel figure, but don't want to spend alot of money on a Neuspotter kit. The Krote mechanic, SAFS pilot and Fliege pilots are the most flexible ones, as they can be placed alongside other suits like the Raccoon or the Kauz.
