Corgi Forward March US59119
Figure
Luftwaffe, Walter Oesau, Munchen-Gladbach, Germany, 1944

An eight-victory Spanish Civil War ace, Walter Oesau saw extensive combat in WWII both on the Eastern and Western Fronts with no fewer than four different units. He flew both the Bf 109 and the Fw 190, and was perhaps best known for his leadership of both JG 1 and 2 on the Western Front. Having been in combat for almost the entire war, Oesau was killed in action fighting USAAF P-38s on May 11, 1944, by which time his score had reached 118 victories.

The Corgi "Forward March" range presents highly-detailed, ready-made spin-cast figures in 1:32 (54mm) and 1:50 (36mm) scale. Over the last 50 years Corgi has earned a reputation as one of the finest producers of highly detailed, die-cast, historically accurate vehicle and aircraft models. These same values and principles have now been applied to a brand new range of hand-painted, spin-cast metal miniature figurines - the FORWARD MARCH collection. Our same commitment to quality and authenticity shines through in every figure - from aviators to World War II infantry and elite forces, these figures capture the essence of the period down to the buttons on the tunics and the look of confidence and resignation in their detailed faces! Many of these figures are the perfect compliment to existing Corgi military and aviation collections - what better way to bring additional life to your existing collection than by creating your own custom-made vignette with vehicles and figures.
