World War Two Chinese Expeditionary Force? Huh? Didn’t China do all its fighting with the Japanese and themselves in China?

Not sure, but i think these guys are Nationalist Chinese, they fought alongside American and British Forces during the Burma Campaign. They would eventually fight (and lose) against the Communists in China post WW2.

These will look great on RYefield’s new M4A4 Sherman.

The details on these figures is top-notch- sharp looking moulds and that wool sweater casting is sublime.

Outstanding figures, that will compliment a unique tank. Very nice!

These aren’t really new. I bought them a year ago when they were released along with Lanmo’s Chinese M4A4 Sherman (Dragon kit with a host new of 3D and PE parts).

Looking at the RFM instructions and boxart, RFM does not depict 813 correctly as it did not have a travel lock. If you build the RFM kit, I would try and source the Lanmo instructions as they too include the markings for 813 and 45 and should help build an accurate Chinese M4A4.

Scalemates doesn’t have the lanmo-specific instructions…

But it does have the Dragon equivalent.

Don’t know if I’d trust the original Dragon instructions. Both Hobby Search and HobbyEasy have at pictures of the decal instructions which should help with the specific features of 45 and 813.
