Hi Jimmy,

Don't know of a kneeling one off hand. Do you want a basic infantry man? What theatre of war? Dragon do 2, on lying firing and one with the Bren at the hip, both are NWE. Resicast have a para I believe. Need a bit more info.

Jimmy -

Looking at your posts, I'm assuming you're looking for something associated with the British 'Red Devils' like at Arnhem? Verlinden does several 'Red Devil' figures, one with a 'PIAT' crew (VE1814) that could have a bren gun switched from another set like the 'Walking Bren Crew' (VE1176), all 'Red Devils'. Also Verlinden has a 'Red Devils Conversion Set' (VE2160) that could be used. Verlinden has excellent detail, but tends to be on the 'big' side (closer to 1/32 vs.1/35 at times). For Arnhem remember, there were 'regular' British infantry with XXX Corp where the other bren gun crew would fit in. If you're set on the 'Red Devils', then it would be the conversion with Verlinden or Resicast as Alan mentioned. Hope this helps some.
