1/32 European Aircrew - what’s out there?

[onosendai]

In my experience, the market for figures as aircraft diorama accessories is this: 50% pilots, 40% UsNavy Deck Crew, 10% all the rest.

LSP crew, I’m on the look out for 1/32 EU aircrew without face masks on (no really). Is there anything out there that you know of to purchase. I’ve done some research and I’ll I get is PJ Production or 1/35 Live Resin.

Thought I'd selected Channel 70 by mistake — oh the horror, the sheer horror.

 

That's the problem: they're either looking psychotic or (Aires Quickboost) all look like Prince Charles.

That’s very generous of you thanks very much.

The pose and the face are reminding me the hunchback of Notre-Dame... However, do not be frightened as the pictures are far worse than the figure that is actually quite nice.

I've always wondered why he doesn't invest something in a good painting of his figures........

I’ve got that figure but I’ll be replacing the head with a Hornet Models one, they are superb.

Reheat have been out of production for a good few years now .

Didn't know that. Just seen their aircrew coming up for sale on evilbay quite a lot.

We need seated 1970s-1980s European/USAFE pilots and navigators.

 

Maybe start with 1/35 army, load on layers of sculpted flightsuit, file back the top end to Max Headroom Mr Blockhead, over which we can fit various bone dome helmets? Surely the flightsuits in seated mode are very generic?

 

European shiny hat, RAF/FAA hot Cross bun cranium, Luftwaffe Luke drivers in cowboy hats, and so forth.

The best modern seated pilot figures are by Master Details, and like Worzel Gummidge, come with a selection of heads.

Ah gotta go put ma flyin ed on, Aunt Sally!

Reedoak has recently added a seated Mirage 2000 pilot to their range.
