Miniart 1:35 - Anti-tank Obstacles - Plastic model kit #35579
The hedgehogs, or Czech hedgehogs, originated in Czechoslovakia and were first used on the country's border with Germany prior to the Munich Agreement and Germany's occupation of the Sudetenland. During WWII these anti-tank obstacles were widely used by the Soviet Union and proved to be especially effective in urban areas to block streets. Germany also used the hedgehogs as part of its defenses of the Atlantic Wall.
The Czech hedgehogs were normally made from sturdy metal, however the Soviet Union sometimes even used wood for this purpose. The obstacles were up to 1.4m high and consisted of 3 pieces of metal angle joined by gusset plates, rivets and bolts.
This kit contains parts for the assembly of 12 models of anti-tank obstacles.

Miniart 1:35 - German Feldgendarmerie Special Edition - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35315
The Feldgendarmerie were military police units formed in the Napoleonic era by the armies of several German kingdoms - Saxony, Württemberg, Prussian and Bavaria - which later became parts of the German Empire. In peacetime the units served with the Prussian Gendarmerie as a mounted police.
Dissolved after the First World War, the Feldgendarmerie were reintroduced in 1933 when Hitler seized power. Personnel were trained in a special military school in Potsdam. Due to strict training conditions and high demands placed on the candidates, only a small number of soldiers managed to graduate and join the force.
Staying behind the theatre of operations during WWII, the Feldgendarmerie closely worked with the Geheime Feldpolizei (Secret Field Police) and SS in the rear. Their duties were to monitor traffic and population control, fight with partisans as well as arrest and execute rebellions. According to some historians, the Feldgendarmerie soldiers were also involved in war crimes and Jewish purges in occupied territories.
In the period between 1943 and 1945 the Feldgendarmerie were infamously known for chasing and executing deserters, many of which were wrongfully convicted. This gave the units a bad name "Kettenhunde" or "Chained Dogs" after the gorget they wore with their uniforms.

Miniart 1:35 - German Soldiers at Rest - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35378
After the end of the First World War, the military forces of Germany called Reichswehr were limited to 100,000 soldiers under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. In 1935, the Nazi army was renamed the Wehrmacht which allowed the Third Reich to increase its military strength. The branches of the Wehrmacht were the Heer (army), the Kriegsmarine (navy) and the Luftwaffe (air force). On the Wehrmacht recruitment posters the "ideal German soldier" was depicted as a blond and blue-eyed young man. Werner Goldberg, a German soldier, became the prototype of that image, however later he was "dismissed" after he had been found out to be half-Jewish. It is believed that the total number of soldiers who were recruited for service in the Wehrmacht during its existence from 1935 to 1945 constituted 18.2 million.

This series of battles is known as the Third Battle of Kharkov, which cost the Red Army over 80,000 casualties.

Miniart 1:35 - Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. C - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35166
The Panzerkampfwagen III, widely known as the Panzer III, was a German medium tank produced by the Daimler-Benz AG in the 1930's. According to the Army Weapons Department plans, the Panzer III was aimed to serve as the main battle tank of the German Panzer divisions. It was meant to fight enemy tank forces with the support of the Panzer IV which was intended to neutralise anti-tank guns.
The Panzer III was able to reach speeds up to 40 km/h by road and 20 km/h off road. Its armament included one 37 mm KwK 36 L/45 cannon and two 7.92mm MG34 machine guns. Compared to its successors, the Ausf. G and Ausf. J, the Panzer III featured a relatively thin armour (15 mm). It had space for five crew members.
When the Soviet T-34 first appeared on the battlefield, the Germans saw the urgent need for a more powerful anti-tank gun. The decision was made to redesign the Panzer IV as it had more potential for further development. The Ausf. C soon became outdated and its production ended in 1943. The tank was deployed in several German campaigns of the early war period including the September Campaign in Poland, the Fall of France and Operation Barbarossa.
The kit contains 1047 plastic parts. It is the first plastic model of the Pz. Kpfw. III Ausf. C.
