Seated crew for German Recon vehicle

[Guest]

Hello,

I'm finding it some what frustrating that manufacturers are not including figures with this kits these days.

I've bought a Dragon Sd Kfz 250/9 recon vehicle. Unfortunately as with 99% of Dragon kits, it doesn't come with any crew. I can't seem to find any after market figures. I have half track crew kit but all i can get is the driver. I need two seated figures for the gunner and loader.

Has any one built of of these recon kits with seated figures?

Scott's right, Miniart do some excellent figures - their German tank crew in winter uniform has 2 seated figures.

Also Masterbox are one to look at. There's also Tamiya, they do a 4 figure set for their reconnaissance Schwimmwagen - the driver could become a gunner?

just to add to the above what are great places to look you can also try Master Box do some nice sets as well,

Narly as bad as aeroplanes without pilots! I think it's a conspiracy by all the AM companies who do wheels, metal legs etc. No pilot means you absolutely have to make them wheels down!

I have lots of left over seated figures that I've not used from kits like tamiya kubelwagen driver, tamiya opel blitz comes with two seated figs. Miniart do a drivers set.

I wouldn't think it be too hard to convert a figure to be seated, sounds like fun actually.
