Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Deep Dive: Pt 58 Set #83205 (2005)-#93205 (2007) German 352nd Infantry Division (Normandy 1944) Pt 5 Pose 4

The last of four poses from this set. It's gonna be a while until the next set of Germans pop up in the posts as it's about ten sets sequentially down the line from this one.

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Deep Dive: Pt 57 Set #83205 (2005)-#93205 (2007) German 352nd Infantry Division (Normandy 1944) Pt 4 Pose 3

The third of four German poses that came in this set. When I was digging into the box of loose FOV figures to put these sets together, I noticed that the German figures were all relatively uniform in their coloring and texture. Not so with the American forces, and as photography progressed for the series it was apparent that later production American figures were declining in quality. 

There is only one more set containing Germans that I was able to identify which means most of the other set postings will be U.S. and British.

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Deep Dive: Pt 55 Set #83205 (2005)-#93205 (2007) German 352nd Infantry Division (Normandy 1944) Pt 2 Pose 1

When I started preparing for this series last year, these were the first German figures photographed, so therefore they're numbered Poses 1-4. FOV figure sets have either four or five figures depending on the number of larger accessories that came in the box and, as this set included a bunch of large house/street details, there were only four figures included.

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Deep Dive: Pt 54 Set #83205 (2005)-#93205 (2007) German 352nd Infantry Division (Normandy 1944) Pt 1 Packaging and Contents

This was one of those sets for which I no longer had the original box and depended on the flyers and eBay photos of the boxes to determine the major components. As I already had all of my figures thrown in one big box, and all of the detail and terrain pieces thrown in another big box, all I had to do was sort through them and pull out what I needed, being careful to color match the figures. That said, I can only verify the larger components and - other than the Jerry cans - have no idea what other 'smalls' were included in these particular sets.
