The Figure: WWI German “Last Stand” General / Officer
This image displays a toy minifigure body representing a high-ranking German Officer (likely a General) from World War I, depicted in a desperate “Last Stand” or “Zombie” combat scenario. The product name “Officer” confirms his rank, but his equipment tells a story of extreme survival.
-
Uniform & Rank: He wears a Field Grey (Feldgrau) Officer’s Tunic. The most telling detail is the Red Stripe (Lampassen) running down the side of his trousers. In the German military tradition, these broad red stripes were reserved exclusively for General Officers and members of the General Staff. This indicates he is a very high-ranking commander forced into direct combat.
-
Battle-Damaged Appearance: The figure has a Grey Skin Tone, covered in blood smears and scars, with a fierce, sunken expression. This styling strongly suggests a “Zombie Officer” or “Undead Soldier” theme, popular in “Weird War” or horror settings (like the Call of Duty: Zombies mode), where fallen soldiers return to fight.
-
Tactical Gear (Front): Unlike a typical clean officer, he is geared for close-quarters trench warfare.
-
Decorations: He wears the Iron Cross 1st Class on his left breast, signifying bravery.
-
Gas Mask: A WWI-style Gas Mask is hanging loosely around his neck/chest, ready to be donned at a moment’s notice against chemical attacks.
-
Ammunition: He wears belt pouches for a pistol.
-
-
Equipment (Back): The back printing is unique and aggressive. He carries a Rack of 5 Stick Grenades (Stielhandgranate) strapped directly to his back. It is highly irregular for a General to carry his own grenades, emphasizing the “Last Stand” nature of the figure—he is fighting for his life with whatever weapons he can find.
Historical & Thematic Background: While the uniform (General’s red stripes and Iron Cross) is historically grounded in World War I / II, the combination of a General carrying a rack of grenades and having grey/undead skin places this figure in the “Dieselpunk” or “Horror” genre. It represents a scenario where the command structure has collapsed, and even the highest-ranking officers are fighting in the trenches as “Shock Troopers,” or it depicts a supernatural soldier raised from the dead to continue the war eternally.
