Hi Can anyone point me in the direction of German riders preferably DAK ish, but either drinking or pouring water over their heads?

Thanks

That's very specific! The new version of Tamiya's Afrika Korps SdKfz222 comes with a motorcycle and rider. The rider has two heads, one with a scarf over his face, the other without, and two right arms, one pointing, the other with elbow bent and open hand for holding a separate pair of binoculars. You could probably make that work. Not sure if the bike and figure are available separately though.

The problem is, that as great as the figure is, he's an infantryman, and not a despatch rider.

CommanderBond:

Just to be clear: Are you wanting a figure wearing the full rubberised despatch riders' jacket performing the suggested actions?
