Greetings all,

I am looking for 1/35 scale soviet tank crewmen to employ in my tanks... Any leads on manifacturers and online stores selling these manifacturer's kits will be greatly welcomed. Seems there's no injection kits except for the old DML set, which is impossible to find anyway.

Thanks in advance!

Emri

The "TANK" resin figures are about the best I've seen for both WW II and Modern. "Master Box" has some excellent new styrene Soviet crew figures out.

Hi

Mini-art make a nice yet cheaply priced set. And tahnk makes awsome sets.
You can purchase the tank figures at www.modelpoint.us, which has very good prices and service.

Cheers

What era do you want the tankers to be in? A WWII tanker will not look like a 1980's tanker.

Apart from all the good options already given you could try ICM stuff.

Not readily available like Dragon stuff but sets are about.

IC35181 Soviet Tank Crew WW2 and IC35351 Soviet Tank Crew (1943-45)

I think probably Tank do the most, which is understandable given they are a Russian company, but are of course resin and as such more expensive than moulded figures.

Hi Emre,
I recommend the Mini Art Soviet tank-crew figure sets, they have the largest range in plastic.

#35009 Soviet Tank Crew At Rest
#35022 Soviet Tank Crew Winter 1943-45
#35017 Soviet Tank Crew At Work
#35027 Soviet Officers At Field Briefing
#35034 Soviet Tank Ammo Loading Crew
#35037 Soviet Self-Propelled Gun Crew

They're all very well molded.
Cheers

My big mistake. I should have stated that I'm looking for modern tankers, post WW2, to go with such vehicles like the T-55, T-72, BMP-2, BTR-70, BMD, Nona and stuff like that. I have a couple of the stated WW2 sets already, WW2 era is not a big problem. I can't find modern stuff.

I do have the ICM Soviet tank crew at rest at Afghanistan. Other than that, I have no modern figures and I do have a rather large stash of Soviet vehicles to be built.

Tank has Russian crews at Chechnya, would they be suitable for pre-1990 Soviet armor?

Thanks for the replies.
