With the not so recent release of the d-day and U.S. tank crew figures. Is there any word that they will release a German tank crew? I'm not much into 1/18 armor but I gotta have at least one set (Sherman vs.Tiger/KT) with a crew to man them!

21c has already released 5 German tanker figures with either differing cammo coveralls or differing headsculpts over the past 3 years. The most recent figures are the Sgt. Max Rhode and Pvt. Gehard Kedanzi figures from the Battle of the Bulge II lineup. Its not a full tank crew in the way the US tankers were made for the new D-Day series, however with headswaping, one can easily make a crew of individualized figures for their Tiger, Panther, or Panzer IV from the BoB series tankers

Given that, a German tank crew in the standard black coveralls would be cool, however, I think 21c should place priority on getting other much needed figures out

yeah... uhh, Roy, TKO I need at least five of this type and more when the KT comes out. the parka tankers are great I have several, but what about more temperate climates. I definately need an all pea dot variety

thanks

IMHO another round of german tankers (agree on the non-parka types) and some Fallshirmjagers with the new articulation would be big hits..

what we need is some true dak tankers

DAK tankers would be nice, but you need an actual DAK tank to put them in first.

I have a panzer 4 non rc in dak color. You see them all the time on ebay. They are cool man

The non-RC Panzer IV is not in DAK colors, but rather a cammo scheme used for the eastern front. The S1 RC Panzer IV, however, more closely resembles a DAK tank with its solid tan scheme. I personally have thought about getting an RC Panzer IV D (with the short barrel) and repainting it into a DAK tan color.

"I personally have thought about getting an RC Panzer IV D (with the short barrel) and repainting it into a DAK tan color."

That would make a good early DAK tank. I have also thought about putting the short barrel gun turret onto the "H" version hull and repainting to make a "F1 " model DAK tank. The final conversion would be to remove the turret shields and hull shield brackets from the "H" model, do a repaint, and make a later DAK "G" model. Though the muzzel break is different on the "G" then the "H" model. Somebody posted some pictures at one time of their "G" DAK conversion.
