Hi, Its my understanding that most Tank crews would repair tracks and the minor problems while in the field. Im not sure of any figure sets of them actually repairing tracks but there are 2 sets of German mechanics that are pretty good ; Verlinden #2439 German tank Mechanics and Warriors # 35565 German Mechanic s in winter dress. As far as Wehrmacht Figures at rest, I'm sure if you look around you should find plenty. Try Lucky model, Hobby easy, Squadron etc... Hope this helps, Good Luck in your search. milvehfan

Look for a company there called MiniArt, and check out their tank crews. They are exactly what you are looking for

Hey Thomas,
Check out Master Box's set #3525, Skatspieler.
You can't get anymore relaxed than playing cards like these guys:

Check out MiniArt like Frank said.
They have a set of Germans at rest coming out soon, #35062:

Hey Thomas,
Again, as Frank and I said in our previous posts, you should take a look at MiniArt

http://www.miniart-models.com/

They have 2 sets that you could use:

German Tank Crew At Work #35010 - http://www.hlj.com/product/MNA35010
German Tank Repair Crew #35011 - http://www.hlj.com/product/MNA35011
