Meng 1/35 Imperial German Army Stormtroopers Figure Kit (4)

The latest MENG HS-010 Imperial German Army Stormtroopers plastic model kit includes four figures of different gestures. They hold representative weapons and have vivid facial expressions. Cluster grenades were quite useful against tanks and other armored targets in WWI. When the British and French got more armored vehicles, the Stormtroopers were equipped with a large number of this tank killer. The MG 08 machine gun was the German variant of the famous Maxim gun. It’s the most popular German machine gun in WWI. The stormtroopers used its lightweight version. For them, the MG 08 was like the squad light machine guns which appeared later. Rifles are always the basis of infantry firepower. It is noticeable that this stormtrooper rifleman not only takes a lot of rifle ammunition with him but also hangs four grenades on his chest. The MP 18 was the first submachine gun used in combat in the world. The 32 9mm rounds in the snail drum magazine could be fired in a very short time. After WWI, many countries started to develop similar submachine guns.
