Hi all,

I wondered if anyone has any suggestions for good sources for 1/48 modern Russian/Soviet pilot figures?

I recently got myself the new Eduard SU-22 M4 kit and I'm trying to source an appropriate figure to go with the plane (standing on the tarmac). The old KP kit that is repacked in this set doesnt include any figures.

So far I have only been able to source some CMK Warsaw Pact Pilot figures, it doesnt specify what period or planes they should go with though. So I am not sure if they can be used for generic Soviet pilots or if indeed they are appropriate for a SU-22.

Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated!

Thanks guys!
