Goffy Models makes some modern German figures. According to their website Hannants, Lonewulf Models and Moredun Models should stock them in England.

Other than a set of 1990-vintage German paratroopers from Dragon, there's not much out there in styrene, apart from the one or two tank crew figures included with Tamiya Bundeswehr tanks.
