In a previous posting we show a soldier kneeling firing a bazooka from our very good friend Erwin Sell. We received photos from another very good friend Markus Leckscheid shown similar poses.
Markus and Erwin believe the two new figures are by Clairet, a French Toy Soldier Company. We will have to see if these figures are Clairet or not.
Hello Paul,
Initially it’s a Guilbert (have a look in this section on the forum). Molds were then taken back by Clairet ( boxes Clairet on your photos). The FFL is an original Clairet creation.
Bests.

Thank you for the corrections and information,
They are a lot of soft plastic copie of this set but it’s the first time I see the Bazooka shooter!!!

Markus was the one on the painted figures. Were soft plastic figures done more recent?
