1/35 U.S Paratroopers ‘’MG team’’ Marching (Normandy 1944) Set

Historical Context & Theme

The U.S. Paratroopers “MG Team” Marching (Normandy 1944) Set captures one of the most essential combat groups of the Second World War: the machine gun crew of the U.S. Airborne divisions. During the Normandy campaign, these paratroopers were responsible for carrying and deploying the squad’s main automatic weapon — the backbone of infantry fire support. As they advanced through hedgerows, villages, and open countryside, the MG team’s endurance and coordination were vital to maintaining pressure on German defenses. This set embodies that grit and cooperation, reflecting the teamwork and discipline that characterized the U.S. Airborne during the D-Day operations.

Figure Details & Realism

This 1/35 scale resin set includes three paratroopers in motion: the machine gunner, tripod carrier, and ammo loader. Each figure is sculpted with outstanding precision — from the realistic folds of the M42 jump uniforms to the accurate arrangement of pouches, belts, and weapons. The figures exhibit distinct postures that show the physical effort of carrying heavy equipment through the rugged terrain of Normandy. Fine detailing on the MG42, ammo boxes, and tripod provides exceptional realism, making these figures ideal for close-up or vignette photography.
