How About Some 1/35 or 1/48 Sci Fi Figures?

I second that! Twice!

The U.C. Hardgraph series of kits has some 1/35 soldiers and crew in them, but a lot of them are specific characters.

Generic multi pose infantry and crew would be awesome, and I bet they would be snapped up too. A ground crew for an X-wing. Maintenance staff for any gundam. Just good quality pilots for MaKs (1/20 scale, I know...).

Equipment too; cargo crates, maintenance scaffolding and ordinance moving vehicles.

I've been building sci-fi since I was little, and as time goes by the models and options just keep getting better, so we may actually see some of this stuff.

Hopefully before my eyes give out...

Yea, you can get more in 1/48, but its to small for my liking, 1/35 is a perfect size.  I really dont know why all companies avoid it.  They really should make everything in a universal scale, find something like 1/40 or something for tanks, soldiers, planes, etc.  Or line stuff up with train gauges, its such a female dog trying to find stuff you want sorting through all the wrong scales.

Its like companies sat down and said, ok, modern and WWII will be 1/35 ancient to napoleon will be 1/72, planes will be 1/48, mechs will be whatever random scale you want, and trains lets just cover the board but not make anything match up with the rest.

Hasegawa is supposed to start releasing models in the Maschinen Krieger line, starting w/ a Falke in 1/20. Its supposed to have crew and accessories included.

Hasegawa's public announcement:

And HLJ has some pics on their site:

After that, there is some talk that they will release other vehicles in the series, either in 1/20 or 1/35, but as far as I know, that's still just a rumor.
