That was one figure I wish 21c had released in carded form... Granted their Battle of the Bulge style tanker figure in the variety of different color camo smocks are fantastic and I made sure to get a bunch of them back in the day to crew all my tanks, however, a figure in the standard black panzerwrap would have been just as useful!

This would be a great figure to make molds of and then cast and offer the piece to collectors.

The basic figure pops apart easily enough for casting... Don't need anything like that prototype. Honestly that probably has far more fragile/less sturdy posts by looking at it. Much further ahead, if you were inclined to cast it, to use the basic figure for it if you have one.

Then again, what you have to charge for resin casts of a figure probably won't be much different than scooping them up off Ebay at random, price-wise.
