I am searching for Bundeswehr Soldiers in 1/35 scale. Preferably plastic and not resin or metal. To add another problem to the list I would prefer old-style (early-mid 1980s) BW with OD-Clothing and G3 rifles etc.

Anyone know a payabel set?

Hi,
There's an old Dragon kit that may be suitable, though I think it may be a little too modern.

The Dragon set is the only option I can think of for '80's.

I think Revell do some of the rubbery toy type figures too if you are really desperate...

The Dragon Bundeswehr paratrooper set was released around 1992, so that should suit your time period.

Checked out the link, they fit just fine (G3 and MG3 and all). I won't hold the fact that they depict "package tourists" (Drop in by air, make a lot of noise, leave without cleaning up) against the figures either.

Time to hunt down some Fallies,
