I'm looking for WWII civilians in 1/72 scale. Could you please recommend a seller? |

You might look at pulp civilians. Pretty much the same era. |

Try the Force20 range of metal figures sold by Covert Intervention Games and through The Games Tavern in Virginia. They have a number of packs with different civilian types (dockworkers, explorers, etc…). I think Elheim Figures (metal) has a couple packs of various civilians. The OOP Battlefield Miniatures refugee packs (also metal) are nice if you can find them. Presier make some 1/72 civilians in plastic but most are noticably more modern than WWII era. |

Thanks for these. My pet project has been Finnish Civil War of 1818 and for that you basically need only armed civilians. Converting is always a possibility. So I'm always on the look for some civilian figures. |

- Battlefield Miniatures has refugees (Battlefield) and russian civilians (Blitz). It has been already told. Armed civilians: - SHQ has some partisans, volkssturm and resistance. - Caesar has resistance (plastic). - Grubby Tanks has very nice partisans (previous Britannia Miniatures). - East Riding (previous Platoon20) has russian partisans. I hope it helps. |

And I forgot but you have. Bunch in plastic. See plasricsoldier.com… Half of which cn be decently used, ending with 2 dozens for the price of 6 in metal. |

A couple options here: this first lot are from SGT's Mess and are very nicely done. Great mail service too! [URL=http://s156.photobucket.com/user/4167MGK/media/DSC_0070_zpsjzfentna.jpg.html]

[/URL] Another option are the Dapol models, designed for model railways. No surprises, these look like they are waiting for a train, but could be (sullenly) watching a parade they don't need: [URL=http://s156.photobucket.com/user/4167MGK/media/DSC_0076_zpshr5msdjw.jpg.html]
[/URL] The railway workers are another option: [URL=http://s156.photobucket.com/user/4167MGK/media/DSC_0080_zps8g3e0rmi.jpg.html]

Rolf Hedges Models/Liberation have some armed civilians for the Irish Wars in their Bandera Miniatures range |

Footsore sell the old Musketeer Miniatures (2 packs amongst those on their Interwar webpage). They are excellent. |
