Don't have it Luke, and certainly would not waste my money on it. It falls into the "they really should retire these tired old molds category."

I actually only need the MP44 guy and the guy with the grenade. Since bodeen sent the guy on the ground with the pistol to me with some other figures I don't need that figure and I need action poses so I don't need the standing guy holding his Kar98k. Or in other words I need/want only two of the four figures included in the kit.

I have a number of the Tamiya figure kits. I'll check when I get home from work. If I have it, it's yours.

I have this kit from 20 years ago. Unfortunately the grenade guy is the only one I used.

I'm not sure I have it yet, Luke, but if I do, it's on the house. Maybe you could post some pics of your finished project. I'll let you know if I have it in a few hours.

They will be put in a diorama which I haven't finished the base nor the plans for the diorama yet with some US and German soldiers clashing in battle. For which I converted a tamiya US Infantry fig set tommy gunner so that he was shooting a MP44 while his thompson is slung over one of his shoulders. And I need german soldiers in action poses to go with the US figs which are also in action poses. (Which is why I want this particular Tamiya kit)
But the project is still in the planning stages so I can't post pictures right at this point in time but as soon as the plans are complete I'll post some pics of the plans.

Luke are you needing the entire figure with the MP44 or just the MP44 weapon?

Luke, I don't have the figure set you are looking for, but I have one that I think may be better. It is a discontinued Tamiya kit. Here is a link to a picture of the set. If this works for you, PM me your name and address, and I will put it in the mail for you this weekend. If it doesn't work, well, we tried. Let me know.

Hey, it is still available here in Hong Kong for around 3 bucks US. If you are interested, I will wait for your reply. Need to run to a meeting.

Okay, Luke - package went out UPS this morning. They tell me you should have it Monday. I included a couple of other Tamiya figure kits I had way too many of. Hopefully you can put them to good use. Good luck on your Dio.

Cheers,
Mike

Thank You for being generous Mike.
