Building Academy's M7 Priest and can't seem to find any crew figures. Does anyone know who makes a set in either plastic or resin, preferably loading and firing the gun? The only option I have at the moment is buying Italeri's 105mm howitzer to get what appears to be three figures, but I'm a bit worried about the quality, so if you guys know something it would be much appreciated.

I believe Warriors makes two sets with a third on its way.

While checking the Squadron site, I believe they have the Warriors #35338, M-12 SPG crew on sale, maybe they will work for you , if the M-7 crews dont work out. (3 figs in standing/casual poses) milvehfan

Excellent! The warrior figures are great, just what I'm looking for. BTW, Im quite disappointed in this kit - too many sinkholes and knock out marks in prominent places. But to be fair, after I add the Legends stowage accessory set, I think it will look pretty good.

Thanks all for the help.
