Hi All,

Can anybody recommend a currently available figure set that I can use to crew out my AFV club Israeli Centurion Shot-Kal?? They should be dressed in Nomex coveralls and wearing the US vietnam era tank helmet.

I am having a hard time finding anything suitable without kitbashing or sculpting them myself !!

Any suggestions??

That set is the only one I am currently aware of. Verlinden did a 3 figure set as well as one full figure in white metal many moons ago, they are pretty rare now but do turn up on ebay and on private sellers forums, ive got a set and they are pretty nice If you can find em. Hope this helps.

Hi
Verlinden used to make a 3 man crew in metal along with a single tank commander figure set.
Both can be found from time to time, not much help i know.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your replies. I appreciate the link to Hobbyfan. They look abit chunky to me. I'm looking for the lean, mean IDF tankers that most of those guys were in the 73 war. Think I'll go with Hornet heads and hands and try to kitbash as best as possible.

BRgds,

hi, Academy do a crew in plastic,not the best but may be convertable.

Academy's figures are no good for 1973 war, Ed probably knows this anyway.
