1980's 1/9th scale military figures
Posted by weeble on Friday, December 11, 2009 10:19 AM

Back in the 80's , I had gotten a 1/9th scale german grenadier model but I cannot remember the make of it and if you can still get them or if anyone knows where or who sells any 1/9th scale figures. What they had in the 80's was german and american figures. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My dad has one, we often refer to him as "The Great Jerrie" Big Smile

 

The make is Esci. I don't know of the availability, but can also inform taht they made several 1/9 scale models. One also including a motorbike!

Hope it helps,

Yep.  Esci.  I have the kit.  To my knowledge they only made the grenadier -- no American figure.

Do you happen to have any pictures of the grenadier? or is that the model you are looking for?  Last time I heard, Italeri acquired the rights to a lot of the Esci line and that they are redistributing them with new packaging.

I had this model over 20 years ago ond just couldn't repair it anymore after so many moves. All thats left are bits and pieces that I've been saving for if I ever find this model or size again.
