Generic ground crew

[monkeynut]

Could I please put forward a few suggestions;

British RAF / Luftwaffe ground crew figures ie re fuelling , carrying out maintenance etc In boiler suits and side
Military/ RAF Police on sentry/ guard duty with peak caps
Navy Officer in peak cap with crew in woolly jumpers and tin helmets
Kriegsmarine U boat crew landing party with dingy
" downed" Aircrew

Thank you for your time and consideration

I am afraid that none of these are really commercially viable.

The ground crew are really only useful on a airfield scenario and you would only require a very small number of them. likewise the sentrys.

As for the navy stuff I am not sure where they would fit in with any other products in the range. If you had a downed aircrew you would then need Motor launches etc.

I would rather the range of available aircraft be increased to include other ground attack aircraft such as the IL2 Sturmovik, the Polikarpov Po2 and one or two of the Japanese planes like the Zero or Ki-51.

Sadly Orcs I know you're correct ,not very commercially viable, but I still need hopes and dreams. Maybe one day in the future wishes will come true 😃
Maybe not, reality's a bummer☹️

Hello

Some of the figures are available through Shapeways but pretty expensive:-

If you want generic 10mm groundcrew what about these chaps - they are listed in the makers modern range but look fairly generic period and nationality wise:

Thanks Pierre the shy that's  the sort of thing I had in mind.Do you by chance have any idea how well this range matches up with Pendraken's figures size wise?Are they compatible?
Regards.

Hi

The Minifigs on the same base as Pendraken look a little taller and more slender, a bit like N Gauge railway stuff. If you don't have them on the same base or not near each other they are ok.
