My latest recruits comes from Peter Pig. Above you can see a mix of the figures that comes in the packs "3 German infantry firing" and "28 German Infantry charging". As you can see they represents the early war style. In each bag comes eight figures of which one is an officer. The figures are well sculpted and has a lot of fine details.
How does the Peter Pig figures mix up with other brands?
The rumour tells that the Peter Pig figures are supposed to be generally smaller then many other brands, and as you can se on this picture the rumour is true. From the left are Peter Pig, Irregular, Minifig and again Peter Pig.
NC 62 1916-18 German Infantry advancing. A kind of figure that comes in three variations. From left: with coat rolled, with gasmask and finally the basic figure.
NC 64 1916-18 German Infantry standing firing comes in four variations. With rolled coat on the back-pack with rolled coat carried over shoulder, with gasmask and finally the basic figure.
NC 66 1916-18 German Infantry Storm Trooper. One figure that comes in five versions. Armed with a knife, soldier with rifle and grenade, and the last one equipped with shuffle.
More of the NC 66. Soldier with rifle and shield, and the last figure with hand grenade and some kind of body armour.
NC 69 1916-18 German Infantry with Light Machine Gun. Just one variation.
NC 68 1916-18 German Infantry Officer. Also with rolled coat.
NC 65 1916-18 German Infantry in great coat. One variant.
German infantry from 1914. This is the same figures used for the Franco-German war.
NC 8 Prussian Infantry advancing. Available with or without rolled coat over shoulder.
NC 10 Prussian Infantry firing. Available with or without rolled coat over shoulder.
NC 11 Prussian Infantry in greatcoat, advancing. No variations.
NC 53 1916-18 German MG and 2 crew.
Heavy machine gun with grew in the early German outfit made by Minifig. The set is composed only by two figures, no tiny parts. I think the figures has good details and they are easy to paint. They are in the same size as my Irregulars.
German trench mortar from Minifig. Looks good.
Here are a picture that shows what booth manufacturers claims to be 15 mm figures. To the left figures from Irregular and the figures to the right are from Minifig. Maybe a too big difference to have these figures on the same base...The minifig looks good but there are no variations.
German 75mm field guns and crew from Minifig. The guns were "clean" and easy to assemble, but I have to find some photos before I could figure out how to fit the shield. There are three guns in each bags.
The crew comes separately. In each bag there are eight figures, two gunners, four "loaders" one officer and one that I have to confess that I have no clue of what he is doing (the one to the right). They all looks good except for the two gunners, who doesn't fit to the gun. To me they are more suitable as drivers. When I bought these figs I thought that one bag of guns were to match one bag of crew. With only two gunners that is not the case. Maybe it's one bag of crew to each gun?
