The figures themselves require a very small amount of cleaning up with the end of a sharp modelling knife to remove a tiny remnant of the moulding vents from the ends of rifles, but otherwise they are ready to be prepped for painting.
The CTV figures match both my existing Peter Pig and 1st generation Battlefront (FOW) 15mm WW2 Italians, though are a little slighter in build than most of Martin Goddard's SCW range. Perhaps noticeable when held six inches from your nose but not on the tabletop.
The Late Queen figures in Adrian helmet are purely to represent Blackshirt elements of the C.T.V. whilst my WW2 figs will represent the regular Italian formations. But more about that over the next fortnight.
