There is a lot of demand for engineer figures but what poses would everybody like to see to delineate an engineer from a regular infantryman? Flamethrowers are available now for most nationalities but what else?

Not a poll but some suggestions:

-carrying/using tools such as mine detectors, shovels and picks similar to the old Airfix plastics
-prone planting/removing mines
-prone with wire cutters
-prone with pole/satchel charges
-kneeling with fuse igniters/blasting machines/exploders
-throwing charges/AT grenades
???

A couple thoughts that pop in right away are bangalore torpedoes and bulldozers.

There is a company that makes Engineers with all those poses.

Unfortunatley they're not made by GHQ and, some say, they have 'shrunken heads' :)

You can find them in the UK and they're called the same as the German name for 'Eagle'.

We should make a thread full of random haikus of how we obfuscate links and references...

Within the rules of this forum, it's perfectly OK to refer to Adler Miniatures. Just don't enter the link with "various dots and slashes" adlermin.
