This minifigure represents a German rifleman serving in a Luftwaffe (Air Force) ground unit during the harsh winter campaigns of World War II. As your description notes, this is a “German winter air force” figure (德冬季空军).
He is a generic character representing a standard infantry soldier from a unit like a Luftwaffe Field Division or a Fallschirmjäger (paratrooper) regiment. His equipment is that of a rifleman, who formed the backbone of any infantry squad.
The item in the picture is a single, detailed toy minifigure designed to look like a soldier in full winter gear:
- His Stahlhelm (steel helmet) is covered in a heavily weathered whitewash camouflage pattern, with printing that shows extensive chipping and wear from combat.
- He is wearing a padded white winter parka with the hood down. This was the reversible snow camouflage side of the standard German winter uniform, designed to provide concealment in snowy terrain.
- His specific role as a rifleman is indicated by the printed webbing, which includes the standard leather ammunition pouches used to carry clips for the Kar98k rifle.
- His head is printed with winter goggles and a white balaclava or head wrap for protection from the elements.
