ok...

If anyone can help me on this I'll quite happily have their babies...!!!! lol

Seriously though,
I'm after 1/35th scale Modern British Infantry figures....
I've tried searches on the net and have only found verlinden models or stuff in the wrong scale....

If anyone can help it would be great...

regards...

Dragon did a set of "Desert Rats" from the first gulf war, kit # 3013. They also did a two man set of SBS guys with a kayak, kit # 3023. Hope this helps.

It's got to be Accurate Armour

Look further down the list in figures you may find the thread "modern british uniforms " useful & relevant . The Verlinden ones arenīt bad really, click on "profile" & take a look in my photos for what I did to the Verlinden figures with a few minor changes. Accurate armour is the place to look.

Modern is such a relative term. The others have covered the mainstream and I'll add a few others a bit off the beaten track.
Revell did a set of 35th modern Britis in soft plastic (as for the 72nd range)
Tamiya did a Brit Streatcher party c70's which came with a 2A Ambulance originally and then was released seperately. Still avail from time to time.
Kirin did a resin pair of Falklands marines, one with a GPMG
AA, Cromwell, Warriors and a few other resin companies do Modern Brits.
Cheers

thanks for the feedback guys....

I've looked at the AA website and found 2 that are Ideal...
I've also found some warrior ones but their out of stock at the moment...

I'll probably order the AA and Verlinden and make some minor conversions to them to fit the Dio...

Thanks again guys..

regards...
