Plaster figures on war time post cards

Hello to all members sitting at home due to the lock down.
Does anyone have information on a set of German 1914 - 1918 postcards.
They all show military figures that appear to have been cast or sculptured in plaster.

The other strange thing is the cards seem to be sponsored by a light bulb manufacture in Berlin.

All help gratefully received

No help but remembered I had some caricatures on an Italian card, I think there might be more of these. mine might be forgeries/genuine cards "improved" with message/postmarks! Dunno what these were made of.
