Hi Guys,

I am having a lot of trouble looking for possible 1/72 WW2 Canadian/British sea men for a Revel Flower class. Does anybody know a company that makes good figures for this choice? Thanks so much Guys!

I know CMK did a whole series of 72nd figures for the German U-boot and I think a few for the S-boot. Iam pretty sure I saw some also for the Gato sub. I don't know of any Briish figures, perhaps you could get some of the other sets and modify them. Possible to take some of the old Airfix vinyl 72nd scale figuers and do the same. Other than that check all the "expensive" figure lines out....ones where you might pay $10 a figure like Verlinden

As far as i know, Hecker & Goros did a set of three figures, titeled "Royal Navy 1939-45, Crew Home Waters". Perhaps these might be useful...

Hecker & Goros have two white metal sets of RN figures: the 'Home waters' set and a Flower gun crew set - both very good quality. At a pinch, you could probably use some of the Hecker & Goros USN sets.

Other possible sources are the crew figures from the Airfix, Air Sea Rescue Launch, Vosper MTB, LCM3 and some of the military vehicle kits.

I have converted quite a few figures from the Preiser 1927 air crew and passenger set and they work quite well.

Another option would be the resin landing craft crew figures from Milicast.
