Today's post is dedicated to two figures of our beloved King & Country, separated by many years regarding their release. The figures we are talking about are a tank sergeant from the EA016 set of the Eighth Army (Vickers Mk. VI Tank released in February 2007 and retired in August 2008) and the officer of the 3rd King's Hussars (EA111 released in March 2016). The figure depicting the sergeant was so successful that it was reused almost identical (and therefore with the same inspiration) in the EA112 "Tea and Grub" set, although as you can see from the photo our sergeant from the EA016 set he has now been reduced to the ranks. The source of inspiration is always the text by Andrew Mollo, and also here we say that we can see a small discrepancy between the figure EA111 and its inspiration: the officer of the text is a captain, apparently the one reproduced in figure is a major. Another post will be dedicated to the figure of the other officer with a coat present in the Vickers set, but we'll talk about him in another episode! Soon!!!
