I love vehicles that where actually used in combat more than enough experimental versions how about some Ukrainian vehicles by Dragon!

Hi Steve, and everyone else!

HEAR, HEAR!!!

We are in complete AGREEMENT as far as 1/35 "open-topped" vehicle crews are concerned, ESPECIALLY US/Allied WWII and more recent figures are concerned. There are a fair number of WWII German "open-topped" vehicle Crew Figures that are already available from MINIART, etc. I'd LOVE to see US WWII & Korean War Half-Track Crew Members, PLUS nice, "relaxed" candidly-posed sets of seated and standing Infantry GIs and Marines made available for the CCKW-series kits made by no less than FIVE different manufacturers, (HELLER, HOBBY BOSS, ITALERI, TAMIYA & TESTORS, not counting the now-defunct PEERLESS MAX), Russian Infantrymen for the US-made Lend-lease Russian Studebakers (ICM's), Tommies in both Tropical and Temperate Zone Uniforms for all of the British Vehicles, and various WWII German Combat Laendser for the various German Trucks, as well...

There are a veritable PLETHORA of dio possibilities that could be fulfilled, if we had appropriate Crew Members and "Passengers" for our various Soft-skins, Half-Tracks, APCs and Trucks...

The "beute" SU-76i is a tad off. There is photo evidence of the Germans capturing ONE of those SU-76i's and it did not have winterketten.
Of course, any one can say the Germans added the winterketten later. The PZ III cupola was a Russian mod; they did not have enough of them, so they used them only on command SU-76i's
