(WANTED) 28mm German WW2 AFV crew figures
« on: January 23, 2025, 02:57:25 PM »
I have picked up a couple of Blitzkrieg Miniatures Marder lll models which come without a crew. Does anyone have any suitable figures going spare before I start trying to bodge some please? Need up to 4 but happy to take even a single figure. Due to postage costs etc UK only please, unfortunately.

Thanks in advance
Tony

Thanks had forgotten about those although when the range first came out I got a couple of infantry packs before realising the models are smaller than most 28mm ranges. I suppose inside a Marder that might not be so noticeable, so certainly a consideration. Thanks again.

I think they were designed for the Blitzkrieg Marder II so may look OK

I'm not in the UK and I don't have any to spare but have you had a look at the Tamiya 1/48 crew? I presume your model is nominally 1/56 but you'll often find that 1/48 figures work well as they are slimmer and more realistically proportioned. I mention them as they are usually available through model shops and aren't too costly. It's a mix of infantry types and AFV crew but as they are multipart you can customise your crew to your own taste.

Thanks for that suggestion, not considered 1/48 so will go take a look.

Cheers
