Probably the largest ammount of German figures would be from Dragon these are plastic only one each US and British para then there is Verlinden which are resin and cost more than twice the price though there are a few US and British figures then there are smaller firms or figures that are just very rare these are from Kirin, Tamiya (only six or Severn figures) Trumpeter, Edward, Des Resin and about 4-5 other companies that make resin figures

Ebay is probably your best option. I like the Dragon plastic kits and i even found a Brit figure recently! :o

I am hapy with the 21st century ones, You can get a good range of both allied and German figures. The heads, arms and legs can be changed so they all dont look like everyones elses

I have bought 21st century figures from www.smalljoes.com  they do sets which may make the postage a little easier to bare or individually, they currently have the Ardennes geman tank crewman for $5.99 US

Hi Guys I to am looking for tank crew (British) cant seem to find any ,Now I know according to american film (history) they won it all on there own,Captured the enigma machine (2 years after we did )won the battle for Europe single Handed .But my dad said he was there at D-day and the battle of el-alimein,so I thought the British (comonwealth)countries were fighting against the Germans (and Japanise)so I thought it would be nice to have a British crew for My Firefly.
                    Does anyone know where I could get a crew from.

regards pete

Pete, the only crew I've seen are on tankzone but of course at tankzone prices, last time I checked (about a month ago) there were two half figures (£29.99) and one complete standing figure (also £29.99). Having said that I doubt they have the monopoly on them but I have no idea who else has them,sorry.
