The Beast Of War. Soviet Cold War tankers.

Sat down and watched one of my favourite films this weekend," The Beast Of War". Some times it's listed as "The Beast".
It's about a Soviet tank crew in Afghanistan in the 80's, lost when there T55 tank takes a wrong turn after they have attacked an Afghan village, and are being hunted by Mujaheddin for revenge.

Really worth watching. You can watch it on You Tube.

The reason I watched it was I was awaiting the next set of minis sculpted by that Fantastic Sculptor KOSTA HERKO and cast by Eureka Miniatures, based on the Soviet tank crew in the film.

They were just cast this weekend, so Nic Robson hasn't had a chance to put them on the website yet, but they are available. Just drop Nic an email or call him.

Well they arrived today and what can I say. FANTASTIC. Kosta , you've done it again.

There are five minis. All in tanker NBC gas masks. One caring an RPG 7, one with a flame thrower , one commander holding binoculars and the rest with AK's.



Sorry about the quality of the photo.
