Hi,
I'm looking for some 1/35th bare chested resin figures for a diorama I'm putting together.
Can anybody point me in the right direction as to what options I have, please?
It doesn't matter whether they are German, Russian, US or whatever as they will be tweaked to suit.
Thanks for your help.

Joe.

In resin, Legend offers this one:

as well as a few others. But you probably want these:

Thy're not resin, but MiniArt figures are far better than say, the old Tamiya figures that came with the 25 pdr.

Hi Joe,

here are some Resin ones i know.
88mm DAK Flak gun crew

There is a review at PMMS were you can see all Figures in Detail from the flak crew.

Also this set: U.S. Army in Vietnam Mechanized

From Callsign:

Relaxing Soldier

Verlinden also has some without shirt in their older Figure line.

In plastic there are some more sets without shirt like some Miniart sets. I think they are all German tankers. Also there is a set from Preiser "PR63900".
This set is great because it is a complete "nude" multipose set with many different body parts. You get alone seven upper body parts.

Preiser 63900

Hope this helps a little bit

bye, bye

Stefan
