Hi guys, looking for ideas for crew members for a couple old Tamiya kits, the M8 Greyhound (#35228) and the M8 Howitzer Motor Carriage; picked them up cheap over the last couple years and want to do dios with better crew members than the kit ones; suggestions welcome; I know MiniArt and Master Box have put some armored crew kits out lately; thanks

Don't forget the new Tamiya crew set. Masterbox and Miniart make a variety, everything from casual poses and loading to combat positions.

thank you for the ideas; I forgot about the Tamiya set; gives me some good options;

The new Tamiya crew set is excellent- and comes with rank and unit decals!

I like the Tamiya kit, especially the guy in overalls. The MB and Miniart kits are pretty close in size, so you could mix them. And Dragon does a couple, including one with a guy walking with a jerrycan.

Thank you; got some great options there; I thought about some combos; appreciate the links;

Im not a fan of Tamiya figures . the mini art are nice

The last couple of sets are a huge step above anything they've done before. Big difference.

One thing I can't stand about all the US tanker sets is the near total lack of anyone in shirt sleeves. It's all jackets. Not even enough guys in plastic in coveralls. Certainly not enough to crew all those new Lee kits.
