One thing that may jump out at you when looking at the above image is that in no way are those figures 1/72nd scale. And you're right; that image is of 1/35th scale figures by the same company. It really irks me when companies engage in such deceptive advertising.

However... not to defend such unethical practices, but take a look at the scans below. These are probably the most finely sculpted tank crew figures that I have seen in this scale. They are absolutely gorgeous. If one has fine enough paint brushes, a steady hand and a magnifying lens, you could probably end up with a result that looks very close to those larger scale figures pictured on the package. This is the kind of product that tempts me to reduce the quality score of all other competing products on the kit lists, just in comparison to these.
