The kit contains five figures in injection plastic.
Miniart has offered an out of print set back into production with extra parts and accessories. The set features Soviet / Red Army Officers having a briefing in the field. We have many reference photos from WWII to show similar scenes with men dressed very similar to the set we have here.
