Theyre back!! and Ive got some....Airfix Multipose British infantry

I have been waiting on this series to make its comeback for a very very long time , so when I saw the entire range in my LHS I had to get some , unfortunately being skint I only bought the 1 box. I was a little wary that maybe they wouldnt be as good as I remembered.I`ll leave that for you to decide heres a couple of pics of one of them.


and a couple to show comparitive scale diferences (they are 1/32)
next to a Tamiya fig(1/35)

Next to the Tamiya daimler(1/35)

They will be fine as far as Im concerned for going into 1/35 dios , my only concern is that Bren looks pretty big to my untrained eye. Anyone who knows the Bren if you could let me know if its a little big or not Id be much obliged.
Oh Im happy as a happy thing in happy town on happy day , by the way[:D]

The Bren was a big 'ole weapon, looks ok to me.

Looks good to me

Having fired, stripped and cleaned a Mk3 Bren on a number of occasions I can say it does look a too big. In fact that was my first impression as soon as the pic loaded, even before I read your comment.

The figures themselves are still fine, but, having bought the US infantry (NW Europe) set, and compared the equipment and weapons with current efforts from Tamiya and Dragon, it only goes to show how far injection-moulding has come in the last 25 years. Remember that, back in 1979, the Airfix multipose figures were state-of-the-art.
