Hello all,
I have been looking for some 1/35th scale British Infantry or Paratroopers. All I know of is Airfix but I dont really like Airfixs stuff, is there any other place you all know of that sells them?

Hi David,
If you looking for Paratroopers then Resicast have a grand selection.
http://www.resicast.com/
If it's plastic figures then Dragon do 2 sets oif infantry and Tamiya have a set as well. There is also a set of Dragon British SAS which would do a paratroopers. Verlinden also have some British Paras.
Nimrod have some good British Figures too as to Warrior.
State side I don't know much about suppliers.
Cheers
Al

Hi David
Dragon make a set of paratroopers called 'Red Devils Arnhem 1944', I have them and think that they are pretty good. HTH. Nick

In addition to the Red Devils airborne, dragon made a couple of British infantry sets as well.
-6212 British Infantry Normandy 1944
-6055 British Commonwealth Troops, NW Europe 1944
I have both the Red Devils and Normandy set, the first I have built. A little older set, but good. The Normandy set is a more recent product and looks very good in the gox. Of the commonwealth figure set I do not know.
Tamiya has also made one set of British infantry, on patrol. Product number 35223.
Edit: Of course someone mentioned these before, and I didn't pay enough attention. But well, there you see how they look.
