The Soviets Have Arrived

More than I expected, but with a surprise.

Some of the vehicles are a bit obscure as befits Soviet AFVs of WW2.  

Attribution of manufacturer is my best guess

Five KV-2 PSC

Five JSU-122 PSC

Easy repair job to do on the mg.

5 JS-IIs PSC

2 mgs to fix on this lot.

Four SU-76 Battlefront

Would like to add more crew figures.

Three SU-85 Battlefront

Two SU-85-100 Battlefront

Four Zis-5 3 on trucks Battlefront

Four T-26 Battlefront

Need some replacement barrels

 Six BA-10 Battlefront

The two on the right are Peter Pig

Eight BA-64 Battlefront

One wheel to fix.

T-60 Battlefront

Four T-38

Light Amphibious Tank

Five T-20 Komsomolets Battlefront

Three BA-1M ?

and a ?

All solid metal

Seven Universal Carriers 

Have the number 119 inscribed on the base.

Five White Scout Cars 

Resin, not sure of brand.

Nine T-70 Battlefront

A KV-1 1940 model Battlefront

and three KV-85 unknown manufacturer.

The middle one with the white resin has possibly had an adverse reaction with the undercoat

Fifteen T-34/76 Battlefront

1941 model has the single top hatch,

the 1943 model has the two top hatches.

Eleven T-35/85 Battlefront and PSC

Three staff cars

Four 152mm Howitzer M 1943

Four 76.2mm M 1936 Divisional Gun

possibly Command Decision

A bit wonky.

Four 45mm Anti Tank guns

A bit bent.

Four limbers

Three light AA guns

Horses

Four Russian army tchanka Peter Pig

These can have just two horse which would then give me enough to use on the other limbers.

Tank riders.

Snipers

120mm Mortars

A few decals

A bit of a mortar and a few crew.

That guy laying down doesn't look right...

What motivated me to make the purchase was that the figures were all painted.  Having now seen them up close I am not that taken with the style.  There is some re-detailing I will probably do as I don't like some of the colours used.  I will also try a black wash and then a dry brush of buff, but it depends on how sharp the detail is.  I will also redo the flesh.  Then again I might just leave them as they are (unlikely).  Basing is really the key.

27 infantry including flamethrowers

42 infantry

35 infantry including AT rifles 

which go with those little piles of rocks in the sniper image

BUT

Note the odd looking figure top left hand corner in this image.

An infiltrator?

47 infantry including some artillery crew (but possibly for mortars)

58 infantry

51 infantry

40 infantry

Worth their weight in gold.

Still in the box.

What?

This is a surprise.

Hard to tell from the image, but these are late war Germans painted as Soviets.

Whoops.

Might have use for the counters.

The book is a nice touch,

much appreciated.

This force is more than I need for Rommel, 

but will also do for Crossfire and Blitzkrieg Commander. 

 Now to get stuck into the make good.
