Hey folks,

I'm currently working on the Revell B17 G in 1/72nd scale. I really like it (although since it has so much of the interior I wonder why its missing the floor at the waist) but I was wondering if there is a good option for some ground crew around it. Thanks,

John

Legend Productions also do a crew set and an interior/exterior detail set for the Academy B-17 which you maybe able to use parts from.

Allen, thanks for telling us about those! Good looking figures; is the ball turret gunner made of soft clay so he can be wedged into the turret!?

John, I have an (incomplete) set of the Airfix figures. I can show you the pilot and a mechanic if you want to see them.
