Light clothing, rolled sleeves and a helmet carried in the hand give this German paratrooper a relaxed standing outline. The 1942 subject is distinct from the darker-clothed late-war airborne figures already in the catalog.
Blue UN headgear and a long-handled detector make this Polish officer one of Del Prado’s clearest support-role subjects. The 1979 date places the figure near the end of UNEF II’s service in the Sinai.
The saluting pose and red headgear make this lieutenant distinct from Del Prado’s other German-uniformed subjects. His identification concerns Spain’s volunteers in German service, rather than the earlier Spanish Civil War.
Brown outer clothing and a practical standing pose give this company commander a markedly different character from a parade officer. The Del Prado identification places him among the Red forces of the Russian Civil War.
A peaked cap and dark naval clothing give this officer a restrained appearance. Del Prado’s figure belongs to the Imperial German Navy of the First World War, an important distinction in a range containing several later German naval subjects.
Bicorne, decorated dark coat and pale breeches make Del Prado’s Nelson a compact command portrait. The standing admiral brings the war at sea into a collection whose other figures are often grouped by land campaign.
The tall hat, dark civilian-style clothing and yellow neckcloth set this guerrilla leader apart from regular infantry. Del Prado’s 1812 subject gives the Peninsular War a presence beyond the familiar ranks of uniformed armies.
A dark blue coat, white cross-belts and light trousers give this Austrian sapper a clean vertical outline. The model adds a technical support subject to a campaign usually represented by infantry, cavalry and senior commanders.
The brown coat and long upright implement distinguish this Austrian artilleryman from white-coated infantry. His compact standing pose gives collectors a clear view of the equipment associated with work around a Napoleonic gun.
Red trousers, a pale decorated coat and towering headgear make this drum major difficult to miss. Del Prado’s Westphalian subject brings a musical appointment and one of Napoleon’s allied kingdoms into the infantry collection.
