resin driver figure for a German Ardennes scene to use in a Schwimmwagen. Has to be WSS but no winter combat suit. I seem to recall something like that out there but where?
Thanks in advance o mighty phalanx of historica officianados.

Tamiya makes a WSS schimmwagen crew, but I'm not sure about the quality. Warriors has a crew of 3, and the driver looks like he's in a greatcoat. Those are the only two WSS ones I know of that are not in the winter combat suit.
Hope this helps

Thanks Paul,
He looks good but I don't want the winter combat suit as I have no pics of LSSAH in the Ardennes with anybody wearing one of them.

Even though they're intended for Kubel,it won't take much effort to make em fit the Schwimm
