Two new sets are now available from Verlinden Productions. These great looking sets can be combined with the model to create an instant diorama.
Verlinden Productions has released two new crew and accessories sets in 1/35 scale. First a nice looking set for a 75mm Pak with some ammo, accessories and crew. And if you are a Middle East fan, a great looking stowage set with two figures for the Meng Pick-up.

2747 – German 75mm Pak Crew-Ammo-Gear
2746 – Mid East Pick-up Stowage and Crew (Meng)

Seems to be old issues repackaged for the Ming.A piece from here a piece from there.The Arab figure I used 2 years ago and the one with the RPG is on the shelf from about the same time. Tom

Looks that way...and the fact that the weapons aren't entirely new. No PKMs or RPKs...DML will have to provide those. I cannot recall ever seeing pickup Technical crews dressed like that bearded figure ever. Most of the Technical fighters were teenagers to 30s, not middle-aged men, and most likely didn't wear sandals. Surely Verlinden has figures representing those ages. One does get plenty of RPGs though so that's a bonus.

I agree and I am really tired and bored to see old items pointed out as new. Figures came from set 2335 and 2049.

Are Verlinden figures still giants compared to Dragon? I don't want to buy anything only to have their size difference be outrageous.

It´s always the same with Verlinden "/news". They use old stuff from different sets, put them in a new box and then sell it as new set. Most parts are from 2718 - Middle Eastern War Loot and the Figures are also from old sets. The Figures are not bad but i would not use them with Dragon ones and they are not usefull for an technical at all. The Verlinden ones are bigger more like 54mm or 1/32 scale. For the weapons i would use the Dragon sets. These Ak´s are much better in Detail and scale. The RPG´s are also on the big side and not so good in Detail. I would use the Resin one from Tank Models (which is a copy from Dragon)or the Original one from the Dragon Vietcong set for an older RPG-2. This one is really nice in Detail and great in scale. For the newer RPG-7 you could also use the Tank Models ones (five in one set). Greetings Stefan
