Hi,

I'm new here so hello to everyone

I just wanted to ask where is the best place online for purchasing ground crew and vehicles from the Gulf War era?

I bought a 1:48th scale C-130j that I want to try and make into a nice diarama with ground crew and vehicles etc. I've looked around and I'm having great difficulty finding places that sell this kind of thing.

Can anyone recommend me and online shop (preferebly from the UK) where I can buy some.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this.

Thanks

Hi and welcome .

The only company I know of that makes modern 1/48 is Propaganda Kompany, but it's going out-of-business as evident in the NEWS section.

I managed to find this.

http://www.modelsforsale.com/catalog/product_info.php?pName=hasegawa--us-pilot-ground-crew-set-b-scale-148-date-new

But thats about it. There has to be something somewhere. What is it about 1/48 scale figures and vehicles, they're so hard to find?

This is the kind of thing I want to try to make but that 1/48th scale humvee is becoming a lady.
