Rock group 1/48

[brianthemodeller]

Bit of a weird request but I am looking for a rock group in 1/48 or 1/50 scale - ideally a drummer, two guitarists and a singer - or ideas of any figures that could be reasonably easily converted?

 

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Just had a look on Scalemates and can't see anything even remotely suitable in those scales, even in 1/35 you may have problems. 

 

One of my mates on that site did a small dio earlier this year of a WWII group:

Using these 1/35 figures:

I don't know if it would be possible to adapt them in some way.

Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band?

 

Seriously... check out "O gauge" (1/43) railway figures (S&D Models did some great ones that might be adaptable..)

Preiser are bound to have something that you can convert?

Thanks for the suggestions but I’m struggling - I’ve looked at Preiser, S&D, eBay and even Tower Models and they have nothing that looks modern enough!

 

I’ve also looked at the 1/48 military stuff but they all seem to come with helmets or other head gear (funnily enough!)

 

Its a bit disconcerting that I can find an Apollo Astronaut or Barrack Obama (honest) but not four teenagers with guitars!

What you need is these OO/HO guys in O gauge:

 

They are made by a company called Noch...
