1/96 Crew Figures

Hi Mongo,

Welcome to the wacky world of 1/96 scale! When you get a chance, take a peek at my website, listed below...

In addition to the sources listed above, Plastruct sells a set of 1:100 scale civilians that looks like it has potential. Dean's Marine sells lead cast 1/96 scale royal navy types. IMAI made two add on sets for the 1:100 scale Nippon Maru Model the used to sell - one was crew manning the yard, the other, more useful set had deck crew in various poses. Lastly, Micro Machines (now owned by Hasbro) had a set, number 22, called the "Men at Work Collection" that has some perfect figures that required repainting and minimal conversion to be perfect deck crew.

Hope this helps

Kurt

Hi Mango,

The Revell kit of the Consitution and Cuty Sark, uses 1/96th scale men. With a small bit of work , there are enough poses you could get them to work just right,

Email me off BB with your address, I have hundreds of them I send you a container full.
