This is a 1/6 scale action figure by Dragon. Dragon is best known for super detailed tank models that don't go together quite right. Their models and figures tend to be a bit expensive. Last night featured Dieter's bicycle so tonight it is Dieter and his equipment. I still can't quite figure how all the equipment fits on belt. US figures are so much easier.
Lots of detail here starting with Dieter's glasses. The ammo pouches can be seen in photo #2. The other accessories are the canteen, gas mask, mess kit and dispatch case. There is also a helmet and garrison cap. There is a cloth garrison cap and a plastic one. I have him with the cloth one.
In the last photo is the Mauser Kar98k. That was the rifle most German troops were armed with in WWII. The neat apart about it is that the bolt opens and closes. I have it in the open position.
Next I think we will go to Kingman and watch some trains.
Dieter looks like a young FDR... (LOL! I'm watching the movie Papillion, he also looks like Dustin Hoffman's character.)
Thank you very much Celiene. I think he looks just a bit nerdy.
