The feathered headgear gives this Del Prado Bersaglieri corporal a distinctive outline before any insignia is read. The figure brings an Italian light-infantry tradition into the catalog, with a date that requires more care than a simple Axis label.
The crouched forward posture and weapon held across the body make this Del Prado soldier an active infantry subject. The 1946 date places him in the renewed Chinese Civil War rather than the Second World War or Korea.
This Del Prado mountain officer wears a field cap and carries the quieter bearing of a man away from an immediate firing action. He complements the ski-equipped mountain-troops subject by showing the role without its most conspicuous winter accessory.
The camouflage outer clothing and steel helmet give this Del Prado corporal a different texture from the plain field-gray German subjects. The reference identifies a Waffen-SS soldier in the Ardennes campaign of 1944.
This Del Prado legionnaire carries the desert campaign into the French section of the catalog. The headgear, loaded webbing and upright weapon provide an identifiable figure for a battle often overshadowed by the better-known British and German subjects.
The pale winter clothing and guarded stance give this Del Prado German soldier a very different appearance from the confident early-war figures. The Stalingrad date places him near the catastrophic end of the encircled German force.
The upright skis make this Del Prado mountain-troops figure unmistakable. The pale winter clothing and carried equipment turn the subject into a study of movement and survival in difficult terrain, not simply another rifleman.
The gray uniform and Cossack headgear make this Del Prado figure a subject that needs more than a national label. The reference identifies a Kuban Cossack serving with the German forces in 1943.
This Del Prado corporal is shown running, with the body pitched forward and the weapon carried low. The action gives a small figure considerable movement, while the Spanish Civil War identification places it outside the two world wars.
The Del Prado Don Cossack brings the collection into the upheaval following the Russian Revolution. The cap, distinctive trousers and carried weapon give the figure a recognizable Cossack character without including a horse.
