I recently got a few resin figures with a secondhand kit, but they all came in unmarked bags. I'd like to know who the manufacturer is, and what they represent. On first glance, they look like ETO US tankers loading ammo and carrying a jerry can. Can anyone help me identify these figures more precisely?

Here are pictures of the four figures:





Thanks!

Lucas,

The guy carrying the jerrycan is one of the figures from this Jaguar set:

The bottom three figures are from Custom Dioramics. I'm not placing the top figure, perhap YANKS or Jaguar?

Hey Lucas,
Steve's correct, the 1st one comes from Jaguar's two figure set "Out Of Gas!" U.S. Tankers, kit #63014.
I have that one in my stash.
Cheers

Thanks guys-- it looks like the the fist guy is definitely the Jaguar figure.

Tim--based on your tip, I looked around and found one Custom Dioramics set (#4004, WW II US Tank Crew No.1) that looks to be the one I have. Here's a link to the ML review .

Below is a picture of the finished figures:
