1/35 Fallschirmjagers Checking the Map – Normandy 1944

Historical Context & Theme

The 1/35 Fallschirmjägers Checking the Map – Normandy 1944 set captures a tense yet composed moment during the Normandy campaign, as a group of German paratroopers (Fallschirmjäger) studies their map to assess enemy positions or plan a route.
By mid-1944, these elite troops were often deployed as mobile infantry, fighting against overwhelming Allied forces amid the dense bocage terrain of northern France.

This scene embodies tactical coordination and battlefield focus, illustrating the adaptability and professionalism for which the Fallschirmjäger were known. It conveys both narrative and atmosphere — soldiers caught in a moment of calm before decisive movement.

Figure Details & Realism

This 1/35 scale 3D printed resin set by Dynamo Models includes three highly detailed Fallschirmjäger figures, each sculpted with natural body language and historically accurate late-war equipment.
Every figure comes with two interchangeable heads, allowing for variation between helmeted and bare-headed configurations.

The set is designed to fit perfectly with the Tamiya 35241 – DKW NZ 350 motorcycle kit, though the figures can also be displayed independently or with other WWII German vehicles. (Motorcycle not included.)
Uniform details such as the M1943 jump smock, Luftwaffe field gear, and paratrooper boots are sculpted with precision, showcasing crisp folds, realistic posture, and subtle interaction between the figures.

The high-resolution 3D resin printing ensures excellent texture fidelity — from uniform fabric and leather straps to facial expressions and weapon slings — making this a centerpiece for any Normandy diorama.

Diorama & Display Use

Perfect for Normandy 1944, reconnaissance, or command group dioramas, this trio can be positioned beside a motorcycle, around a map, or in roadside consultation scenes.
They combine seamlessly with Fallschirmjäger on Motorcycle No.1 and No.2 to form a coherent, dynamic narrative of a mobile paratrooper patrol during late-war operations.
The natural interaction between the figures enhances realism, depth, and storytelling.
