After much searching I've decided on these.

Sitting I know, but some of the arm angles look as if they will suit, ( minor surgery no doubt ) Good price from a seller as it was the last one he had .
 
MiniArt do some quite unusual figures and the few I've used have been pretty good.

Yes Jim, if I'm lucky the faces will be well detailed . Unfortunate those standing figures were discontinued . There were some in Europe but don't want to have to pay customs duty plus the postage which was high.
 
Hey John,
Just wanted to point out the figures on the tank box art are Spanish not Sovs, though they've got red stars on their caps. So, probably Sov-equipped Nationalists. Spanish flags colours on the turret and the BA-3 armoured car
Also, what period are you depicting? The early uniform, as in the MiniArt set, with collar rank tabs, was replaced in '43 with Tsarist style rank shoulder boards, by which time the T-26s were mostly gone.
Also also, the MiniArt 'early' guys have Ppsh SMGs, which was 'inspired' by the Finnish Suomi SMG, so was only just in service for Barbarossa. If you're doing Sovs in Poland, or Khalkin Gol, no Pepeshas
 
Oops, just read your T-26 buold thread and the plan. So, early Barbarossa then for the period?

Apparently the tank is pretty poor by modern standards, but the price is good for a set of five resin figures :)
