Description from the seller

Rare original Elastolin among soldiers WWII - (see pictures)

4 x horses
3 x soldiers (riders)
9 x soldiers
rare figures

Elastolin: Solid figurines were already produced around 1880 in Austria by the Vienna-based company Emil Pfeiffer, which became world-famous for the "[…] loving and colorful painting" of its figures.[1]

Around 1900 production began in Germany. Similar to tin figures, it covered an enormous range of themes, but primarily military toys. Accessories such as vehicles were mostly made of tin, occasionally there were mixed forms, for example tin carriages with crew and horses made of mass. As other manufacturers typically adhered to Hausser’s size standards, the products were often interoperable. Since many manufacturers not only specialized in war toys but also depicted organizations and leadership personnel of the NS regime in their figures, resuming production across all occupation zones of Germany after World War II was difficult.

Very beautiful collection of detailed figures.
A must for every collector. Condition see pictures

Note: Costs for parcel shipment include packaging, shipping, postage, tracking, and insurance up to 500€.
Figures are fragile. Damage may occur during shipping.
