Hello,

I'm about to gather the bits and pieces needed for a 1/35 Scud diorama and was wondering where to get four suitable figures.

I will probably be building one from the Afghan war if that makes any difference.

Anyone any suggestion?

Thanks a lot!
Cristian

Hello Cristian,

It would be helpfull if you've told your planning (combat/rest) and if you wish plastic or resin that said...

The only figures that spring to mind are the KIRIN 1/35 Middle East SCUD crew, however it's long out of production.

You can find them on ebay from time to time here is an example:

(no connection to the seller)

Brgds,

Sam.

Thank you, Sam! Those figures look indeed great. Too bad they are out of production... But with a bit of luck, I might be able to get them.

I have no preference on plastic vs. resin. As of the situation, since the crew is shown outside the vehicle, I was thinking a combat/training preparation situation.

Cheers,
Cristian

After having a look at the Kirin figures I started wondering if it would be realistic to use tanker figures from the same period of time. I'm particularly eying Tank's figure range.

Opinions?

Thanks!
Cristian
