Amazing thread, to say the least. I'm impressed to see how much money you guys put into your collections. The mere sight of a couple of German Crosses hanging out on a single self is incredible.

I have the same mannequin. These are cheap to buy and made of thin plastic so easy to cut and modify. The only minor is that the position of the hands are making it unable to form other positions and the head which has a huge circumference making it difficult to display medium size headgear.
I found these flexible hands and solve one problem. I will also change the head with a Webster one.
Here are 2 photos: before and after

Where did you get the hands from and did you modify the arms yourself? As you state they are cheap realistic(ish) mannequins, I got mine from eBay. They do have big heads and are quite tall, luckily a lot of the kit I have is on the large size.
From another fellow collector. You can see his listing here: AFRIKA KORPS FORUM / Very Realistic hands with flexible hands
I don't know if he still has in stock but i can ask if you are interested.

As for the head i will replace it with one of these, after i finish repainting.
Their circumference is 53-54cm.

Very nice set and the mannequin looks very realistic.

Awesome NSDAP and SA uniforms. Do you have a SS uniform to complement them?
