I am not a regular to 1/72 scale modelling and am currently working on a t-80b however, I would really like to put a crew in it. I have not been able to locate anything. Is there anything out there that is not World War 2?

John,

There are/haven been a few Soviet Tank/Armor Crew sets made. The problem is finding them.

You can review On The Way's Manufacturer List page (figures are at the bottom of the page):

Thank you so much Jeff. I will check these all out.

John, try checking the Figures section of this page too:

I'm not sure if you'll find the Mig Productions figures any longer, unless via eBay or something, I think they are gone. Definitely worth checking decent photos of what you're buying - there are some nice 1/72 figs around, but there are also some that are a bit poor to be honest. Try checking the Tracks and Troops online shop as well, even if you don't buy from there he tends to have quite a lot of stock and it may be a good indicator of what is actually currently avaliable.

Thank you Matthew!
