Hi guys, I'm looking to see if there's anyone out there that make 1/24 ground crew.

I'm looking for RAF crew from around the early 1980's.

Looking for about four, I did find some Tamiya Rally crew which I could look at modding.

Hi Mustang

The other source you might find is Scalextric? mechanics and pit crew figures. I think they were around the 1/24 scale.

Thanks for the info guys.

I did look at the reedoak before, but they would need some work to make them look like rafs. Scalextric didn't even think about them, but the detail doesn't look as good as the tamiya figures.

So I've ordered a set of tamiya mechanics, hopefully I can make them look like rafs.
