Gents,

I am building a small vignette and wish to add a German officer, Luftwaffe or Army etc, sitting in a staff car surrounded by a few allied (Canadian) soldiers in a dutch town type setting. Any idea who would make such figures for the german officer? I don't build too many figures so...

TIA

I would think Mini Art might have one or two.

I'm not a 100% sure but I think Tamiya include a seated officer in one of their German Staff cars. Maybe ask on the buy sell or trade forum if anyone has one they don't want.

EDIT: I just checked and it seems I'm wrong. If all else fails you could try converting a driver figure or one of the seated figures from the Famo.

I would check Jaguar, Warriors, Legends and Verlinden. I'm sure one of those companies have a seating German for you to use.

Tamiya's Steyr Kommandeurcar kit #35235 comes with a driver and seated officer.
A standing officer is also included.
It may be OOP.
Cheers

Also, E.C.S.I. wagon set came with German solders at rest with an officer sitting cross leged on a chair. If you find a pic and the figure suits you I'll see if I can find it and ship it up north to you free. Just P.M. me if you want it.
