Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
The only things in this "Art of Tactic" range that matter are one-off support or command groups. The rank and file sets are over-expensive, boring rubbish. Only idiots who worship "the emperors' new clothes" (or the fuhrers' new clothes) cough-Spanish Erik-cough would think any different - more fool them HAHAHA!
I collect WWII American, German and Soviet, and post WWII American and Soviet. I buy one each of all the figure sets from Zvezda, but buy multiples of the heavy weapons, and specialized figures. Build up the big armies with troops from other companies.
The only Zvezda mini-sets I have are from the Hot War series. I think these figures are quite welcome, as most of the Cold War stuff in 1/72 plastic was from Airfix and ESCI and discontinued now(although Italeri did reissue the U.S. Soldiers and Soviet Spetznaz Paratroopers sets a little while back). It's a shame that Zvezda will apparently stop making new sets for this series, although my wallet will be relieved!
