I was looking for some 1:20 figure models I could use as hacks to make some figures for engine drivers etc for small industrial diesel locos...

...only problem - I can only seem to find 1970's Tamiya figures from their Pit Crew, 1970's hair and Ear-defenders, or helmeted racing drivers...fullface helmets doesn't seem to go with a 24hp Hudson Hunslet diesel somehow! The other figures are Manga Cartoon Girlies...even less fitting mefinks!

Is anyone aware of a suitable 1:20 scale range of figures?

Only I can see which would be atleast half good where these:

NITTO - FIGURE SET 2 - SHUTORAL FORCES 1:20 SCALE

But the only source for those was an old kit on Ebay from the US and the figures are since discontinued!

not in 1/20 no sorry Alan, all i have to offer is in 1/48 (hasegawa ground crew) might be worth searching for air ground crew in the scale you want. might come up with something.

good luck and sorry i couldnt help,

I'll have to check those out although the LGB figures might be a little on the dinky side. I was hoping for some really beautifully detailed figures as being accustomed to the amazing quality and detail in 1:35 figures and even 28mm wargaming figures. Was expecting some good detail in the almost 3 1/2" tall figures, some of the far larger scale 16mm figures look, to be honest an absolute disgrace! :S

source for 1:20 scale figures

Hi, I offer a line of figures at My figures

Most of them are of enginees or fireman, and fit a couple of Bachmann engines without modifications.

Hi Alan, Go to Back2bay6 on your browser. They have a very good selection of 1/19 -1/20th figures at a reasonable price. They are a British firm with many British types.
