SS-Ostubaf. Jochen Peiper, "KG Peiper Ardenne 1944"

35002 

1/35th scale

Light grey resin.

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee

This figure is Peiper, commander of KG Peiper at the time of the Battle of the Ardennes in 1944, wearing an Italian pilot jacket and trousers. This is in accordance with Peiper's own testimony at the time of the 1946 trial. The Italian pilot uniform was captured by LAH in Italy in 1943, in large quantities, and was said to have been particularly popular with many soldiers. Peiper is also pictured wearing the outfit in the winter of 1943. 

He is wearing a pair of tall ski boots in which the right and left frontal edges are shaped differently. These boots, which he has enjoyed since the spring of 1944, are seen as civilian objects, not military ones. His binoculars are covered in camouflage cloth, and his left hand holds a wooden map case for commanders. It was made as a reference to what is currently displayed at the "December 1944 Museum."

SS-Hsuf. Josef Diefenthal "KG Peiper Ardenne 1944"

35003 

1/35th scale

Light grey resin.

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee

This figure is Josef "Jupp" Diefenthal, Chief of the III.(gep.)/SS-Panzer Grenadier Regiment 2 at the time of the Battle of the Ardennes in 1944. His image at the time of the Battle of Ardenne is recorded in photographs and film. He is wearing a French sheepskin jacket. 

It was captured by the Germans in large numbers after the French invasion in 1940 and was used by many of the Germans serving on the French front at the time, such as the WH, Waffen SS, Kriegsmarine, Luftwaffe, and U-boat crews as well.  His pants are in Italian camouflage, and he holds a flare in his right hand.

35031

1/35th scale

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee

These figures are the SS Driver and Radio Operator half-body set for Tiger-I, which are based on the well-known film Wittmann's ‘Tiger-I 231.’  They are wearing M44 dot-patterned panzer jackets and M43 field caps. 

These figures can be matched to various positions on all Panzers, not just the Tiger I.

AH35015 'Red Devil' Beret, British airborne during World War II.

1/35th scale

Light grey resin.

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee

This is a headset with a British airborne beret.  Their airborne badge is moulded to the left of the beret.
The colour of the beret is maroon, as their name suggests, and this colour alone tells us who they are.

WWII British and Commonwealth forces Helmet Mark II

AH35016 

1/35th scale

Light grey resin.

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee

The MKII Helmet Headset was widely used in the UK and Commonwealth countries during World War II. By recreating the shape of the helmet flowing down at various angles shown in the picture, the more natural and realistic appearance of MKII helmet wearing was reproduced. Due to the wide brim of the hat, the helmet strap is open above the head, and these characteristics are elaborately reproduced. Headsets can be used in all regions where Commonwealth countries participated, from Europe and North Africa to the jungles of South-east Asia.

 Heads WWII German Waffen SS M43 Feldmütze

AH35021

1/35th scale

This headset has a German M43 field cap. Since the fall of 1943, this field cap was widely available in all units until the end of the war. By attaching different positions of eagles and skeletons, they reproduce their various and unique characteristics. Depending on the basic colour, it can be used in all SS, including infantry, armoured and panzer crews.

1/35th scale

Light grey resin.

Sculpted by Gwangyeol Lee
