The Cameraman Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Hi Guys n Gals, after many years hunting I've finally found a kit of my first ever brand new motorcycle, a 1982 Yamaha XT250 - made by Bandai. Anyway I thought it would be fun to try to recreate a figure of me riding the bike, so can anyone recommend a 1/24 scale trail type rider figure , prefer with an open face helmet? I'm not looking for a Storm Trooper type character, in one piece leather, just a normal road rider. So any comments would be much appreciated.

The Cameraman Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 Hi Guys n Gals, rather than searching eBay for 1/24 scale motorcycle figures, I changed my tack and looked for kits that already came with a rider and found an old Tamiya Yamaha T-Max scooter kit. The rider has modern bike gear and an open face helmet like mine! And the cost for this was £11 from Japan, inc postage. So I should have a figure I can do something with along with a bike that I can practise my skills on. Result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
