I had these miniatures and recommend them, it is à regret that did not continue the range!

Just out of interest, what vehicles would you use to go with these 20mm figures? I've scoured the internet and was hoping for some pre painted diecasts but there seems to be little about? What companies make 20mm Centurions, M48s and M113s?

S&S models have a large resin range and carry diecasts here
Hobby Den is worth a look, they carry thier own resin and quite a few kits.
Hannants carry a huge range of 1/72 plastic kits.

Grubbys service is top notch - Ive had same-day dispatch.

Hi all
Just looking at the range, they look superb I think a couple of platoons may need to be ordered
Does anyone make suitable IDF jeep and half track crews

Thanks
Steve

I had them, they are very good imo. For drivers maybe RH/Libération miniatures?

Elhiem Figures do a cracking range of 20mm IDF. They're mostly aimed at 1982, however the figures not wearing flak vests or carrying Galils suit 1973 just as well - https://www.elhiem.co.uk/ourshop/cat_815884-Israel.html

He does a softskin set which will work for '73, however the figure with Galil may need a little work to disguise the more modern weapon.

I think it is a good set of drivers for 1973 apart from the one with the galil.

That's a great set; has a very nice MAG/GPMG, I've used several as SADF & Rhodesians with head swaps.
