I have a bunch of 15mm Japanese landing and I'm trying to find figures to populate them with (like the US versions). Does anyone make such a thing or are there figures that would work (without having to buy a lot and pick out the appropriate ones)? |

Razor78 has several Japanese landing craft in 15mm. Are there any figures that could be used to put into the landing craft? Razor78 does not want to buy pre-configured sets of figures where only some of the set/s would be suitable. Robert |

As I understand the question: You have the craft like this:
But looking for a load of soldiers, as in the lower left corner, but looking more like:
(This is from a print your own KickStarter: link ) The problem is the makers of WW2 figures do not tend to make figured in static poses. They go for action poses like running and shooting. I tried to find some, but had little luck. Now Peter Pig does have:

I used to love all the non combatant figures that Battlefront made for Flames of War, although afaik they've all disappeared from the range. The Water Buffalo for example had nice crew figures included albeit British/Commonwealth. Peter Pig still does nice scenic figures in their range, definitely worth a look. |
