King & Country WS058 New Fighting Patrol: A Familiar Patrol Returns with New Sculpts

Read the silhouettes

• The long MG42 creates a recognizable line above one man’s shoulder.
• The Panzerfaust’s oversized head makes another figure easy to identify.
• The remaining men carry their smaller weapons lower, breaking up the repeated shoulder line.

A technical correction belongs with the old description: the Panzerfaust was a recoilless antitank weapon, rather than a rocket launcher. The Ditsong museum’s account explains that distinction.

A patrol with room to breathe

A shallow diagonal arrangement lets the four profiles remain visible. Place them too close together and the weapons overlap into a single dark shape; leave a little space and the individual sculpts become much easier to appreciate.

WS058 belongs in the collection as a documented revision of a recognizable idea. Its Waffen-SS identity also connects it to the series’ wider historical account, including the organization’s crimes, rather than to an invented story about four named soldiers.

Release record and collecting notes

Sager’s archived WS058 product record lists a release date of July 2004 and a retirement date of December 2008. These are catalog dates, rather than a statement about today’s secondhand availability.
