Quality The set consits from 36 figures in 12 different poses. Figures are well sculpted and proportioned. Details seems to be rather raw, but adequate. Interesting add-on is a set of posters from the time of Spanish Civil War in 1/72.
General Impression & Note Spanish Foreign Legion was from the very first shots of the Spanish Civil War the backbone of the Franco’s army. It is the reason why it was chosen by BUM as the first issue of announced line of figures form that conflict. Poses are well chosen and are suitable for street fighting or for fight in a mountainous terrain i. e. for situations, which prevailed in Spain at that time. Interesting is the guarding soldier in parade uniform and with forcible beard.
