Evaluation
- Excellent choice of subject, the Pandurs are unique in this scale.
- Good casting quality. The review samples were supplied free of flash or mould lines.
- The figures are sold in clear plastic boxes with painting instructions inside.
- The Pandur and his sergeant differ only in their personal weapons, facial features
and hair style. Matthias Manske produces figures with separate heads which can be
converted easily.
- The sergeant's spontoon is an historically accurate reproduction, which has none
of the toy-like qualities of the halberds offered by Nürnberger Meisterzinn and Prince
August.
- Spontoon or rifle fit into the Pandur's left hand perfectly, and may be secured
there with superglue.
- The figures are more slender and much better proportioned than their comrades from
Nürnberger Meisterzinn or Prince August.
- Matthias Manske's Pandurs are nicely com-patible with semi-round 40 mm figures
from other manufacturers, despite the fact that they are fully round.
