Hi all!
I want to add a nice set of figures to a us military truck; but i dont have any "seated pose" u.s. Marine driving... I have a set of figures: masterbox modern infantry; but they are from the UK infantry (MB35180)... Does anyone know if i can make these figures U.S. Infantrymen?

I cant find in google if they have important gear differences, aside the camouflage of course...

Any help will work!!

Thank you!!!

Did you want US Army, or Marines, or it doesn't matter? Tamiya made a set of mostly seated WWll US Army figures for their half-track http://tamiya.com/english/products/list/35mm_img/35080m.jpg Figures are pretty old by now, but might work for you.

Try LEGEND (resin), and or TRUMPETER (plastic), for US Modern Infantry and Driver figures. There are a few other aftermarket companies that also make resin Modern US Infantry AND Driver figures...

Hope this helps...

Nope. Might as well convert the World War II guys mentioned above. Would take grinding away all the gear and redoing it .

Go for the dedicated US figures mentioned.
