I have pursuaded (bribed) Mr Hicks to sculpt me some bailed out tank crew :D I feel they might be needed...

Oooo - I'll be on the lookout for those whenever they come available!   :)

Might I (humbly) suggest some of them with tunics opened to reveal "unit t-shirts" underneath?

At right, a photo of Squadron Sergeant Major Gerry Menzies who came ashore with the Calgary Tank Regiment at Dieppe on 19 August 1942.   He is shown here shortly after his capture.  Of note is the undergarment he is wearing, printed with the cap badge of the Calgary Regiment.

Interesting but possibly a bit too specific! 
We've not discussed details yet.

You’re a mad bugger, you know.  lol.

Tamiya make a perfectly good Dingo in 1/48. Of course they don’t make the Portuguese version with the added superstructure. I know one or two folk who would like one of those. ;)

Just sayin.....

Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
