1/32 IJA Ground Crew with 40mm
Ammo http://www.hlj.com/product/WLFWPD32008)
Wolfpack Design from Korea, couple
of their most resent releases have been design for Hasegawa's 1/32 release of
the Ki-44II Otsu Shoki with the 40mm Ho-301 cannon. This release of the IJA
Ground Crew contains one resin figure in a crouching pose loading the cannons in
the wing.

The figure has been broken down into
6 components and is casted in a light gray resin. The sculpt of the figure has
been nicely done by Gu Hee Jung, the sculptor. He has managed to capture a
lifelike pose and action of the crew man loading rounds into the cannon for the
aircrafts next mission. The figure is holding a 40mm round in his hand that
could be easily converted into a screwdriver if required if you wish to pose the
figure with another Japanese warbird.
The figure comes with an A5 colour
instruction sheet with painting callouts and assembly. The IJA Ground
Crew is a nice addition to the large scale range and I am sure that many
modelers' will pick up this inexpensive figure.
I would Like to thank HobbyLink
Japan (www.hlj.com)
for this review sample.
