From China, thru USA, my new 1/6 action figure. He is Nino Arena, a Folgore paratrooper of RSI army, with his grey-green uniform. I have got another two Folgore action figures of the WWII era: the fist with desert uniform (El Alamein), the latter with air force uniform (Linea Gotica epoch). The newest is a limited edition from a 2006 convention. I met the real Nino Arena in Latina (former called “Littoria”, and former again “Quadrato”) at a conference about Folgore’s battle involvements at Anzio and defence of Rome from the Allies. He was a soldier at that time, and dressed like this.
