discussion Help required in sourcing some sitting figures.

[peter.collins443]

I found this figure on face book and made contact with company concerned. They asked me for further details of what I needed sent them an email explaining what I needed and quantity. I have received a holding email but nothing else. When I made contact again yesterday they said they had responded to check my emails and spam folder but I have not received any other emails from them.

The image needs all the police items removing. The other 4 models need to have their arm by their sides.

Do I need to source a stl file of what I need or does anyone know of a company that can help at a reasonable price.

You need a sitting figure that is not a policeman, eg: a civilian? in what scale? and in what context? eg: sittings resting, reading a paper, sitting slumped asleep, etc? and what material, eg: plastic, resin, metal?
I've found Temu/Ali Xpress, etc to be good for various figures, but you sometimes have to wait a while before they get delivered, eg: couple of weeks sometimes.....

the scale is 1:50 for a dinky erf fire engine I have, I need a driver similar to policeman image but with out the police radio and stab vest. The other 4 figures are similar but instead of being in the driving position they have their arms down by the sides.

You can deffo get 1:48 figures, which although not exact scale, would prolly be close enough? I think even Tamiya and MiniArt may do 1:48, but ebay, temu, ali xpress et al will deffo do some, so just a matter of finding some and maybe adapting them? good luck with it....

Look for railway figures. Plenty of seated figures in many ranges, almost too many to mention; not just civilians but vehicle crews. O Gauge I think is roughly 1/50

Preiser do an eight figure seated fire crew, including driver, but I think they're actually a German crew
