The detail on that weapon is tops! Is it made of metal?

Thanks for the kind words! It's plastic. DML also made a nice plastic version with one of their late-war figures. It might be the same mold; since the two companies apparently collaborated in some projects.

Fantastic job with these.

Final days of WW2 & Post WW2, many Waffen SS and others found themselves joining the French Foreign Legion. The French happy for the very experienced Soldiers and happily to put them in Harms way in IndoChina (later to become Vietnam) too.

Certainly Captured the look and feel of these chaps.

there was a few hundred ex.ss men joined the ffl until the French public found out about them and kicked up about it , so after that things were tightened up so as to stop Nazi's joining the ffl ordinary germans however were still allowed to join up

High quality outfits and accessories! I'm a fan of netting on helmets, nice figures! Cool
