So what ranges of 20mm Italians are there that would be suitable for the SCW? |

Historical Products Company specializes in the SCW and has dedicated figures for the CTV. ebhpc.com/figsscw.php Sadly, proprietor Pat Condray recently passed away and I'm sure the future of the current stock and molds has yet to be decided. I know there is a UK distributor/partner. |

Historical Products Company ebhpc.com Irregular Miniatures irregularminiatures.co.uk And no Italians as of yet, but a very promising up and coming company for SCW here: minairons-news.blogspot.be All of these look great. Irregular Miniatures can indeed be irregular in quality, but their SCW line is quite good. |

"Sadly, proprietor Pat Condray recently passed away and I'm sure the future of the current stock and molds has yet to be decided." I did not know that and am very sorry to hear this. He was quite friendly and helpful in figure selection and certainly knew his business and his history. And now I see it in the webpage. Very sad news. R. H. Models is the UK distributor, but they are under license from HPC, and not for sale in the US. rhmodels.com |

I'm fairly certain that the R.H. Models Italians are available in the WW2 range (Axal miniatures?), and can be ordered to the U.S. The packs with Adrian helmet, side-cap, and fez are all good throughout the war, but the standard Italian M35 helmets made an appearance in Spain so those are also useful, |

"Sadly, proprietor Pat Condray recently passed away and I'm sure the future of the current stock and molds has yet to be decided." As far as I know (little, actually), I'd say that HPC brand isn't going to be dropped off |

In addition to all those mentioned, there are also various sets of plastic 1/72 scale WW2 Italians mostly wearing the Italian helmet but some with fez, bustina etc.: link For the Adrian helmet, French infantry are available for head-swaps: link |

"As far as I know (little, actually), I'd say that HPC brand isn't going to be dropped off" That is good to hear. I would certainly still buy them. |

EWM does a good range of Italian miniatures and vehicles? |
