German MG-08 Crews (1914-1918)

THE “DEVIL’S PAINTBRUSH”

Allied troops gave the Maxim MG-08 this grim nickname to describe how German teams could sweep their bullets across the battlefield like a brush covering a wall. One was deadly, en masse they were a nightmare.

This hard plastic box set allows you to build up to 3 German MG-08 teams. You actually get 6 MG-08s in the box with half that can be built at a higher elevation. There are 9 crew figures. Several arm options allow for a variety of poses. We have also included enough heads to outfit every figure with stahlhelm, feldmütze, pickelhaube, tschako, and schirmmütz. And every type comes with gasmask versions! All parts are compatible with WAAGW001 German Infantry as well.

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included.
