1/24 scale RAF ground crew figures

[stevestrat]

Afternoon, my next planned build is the Airfix 1/24 scale Typhoon. In order to display the engine and cannon detail I intend showing it under maintenance. I've spent days looking for 1/24 scale RAF ground crew figures to no avail. Does such a thing exist or, like many others, will I have to resort to the Tamiya rally pit crew?

No, they don't exist,

yes, you'll have to use Tamiya [or Fujimi] pit crew

Cheers, kinda though that. Maybe some manufacturer will surprise me before I need them. Mind you, if they are the same sort of price I've seen for 1/24 scale pilots I don't think I'll bother!

Looked at Reedoak, Their pilot is one of two I'm considering when the time comes.

Verlinden does 2.

German pilot here butchered into an "I give up pose' :

And a G.I. pointing and laughing:

Used them here:

German can be found , the GI not so much.

Jimmy Flintstone does a lot of 1/24 figs for the car creeps, but they will def need some 'adjustments'.

The 1/24 Trumpeter kits have some resin figs , prollum is they are all kinda just standing around.

Good luck!

What I have in mind is one mechanic on a set of steps (prob need to make the steps!) working on the engine and a second mechanic talking with a pilot. I've more or less settled on the pilot figure. Need a few tools and possibly a toolbox as well but that's a different headache!
