57peppershaker Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 A few years back a girl I was dating founds some of these at the 99 cent store. They where 2 for .99 cents. This is a stock photo Are they 1:25 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyfink Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Are they 1:25 ?Pretty darn close! They look totally normal next to the Revell figures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike999 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 This is Preiser for LGB 1/24 Others are 3 inch tall Spice girlsNice work, and those women look anatomically correct. My gripe with most 1/24 female figures in resin: they look like a teen boy's fantasy. Skinny matchstick legs and they're very...top-heavy, if you get my drift. Scaled up to human size, they'd always be falling on their faces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edsel-Dan Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Almost All of the MPC Gangbuster kits included FiguresBoth Lincolns (Pheaton & Convert), Both Chryslers (also Pheaton, & Imperial Convert) tooI believe the 32 Chevy lost those for the Hot-Rod parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atmobil Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Did anyone mention the Italeri Truck Accesories yet? Here is the standig driver with cowboy hat that I modified to look like Santa Claus on holiday a few years ago:The hats are separate parts so I went for the truckers hat and I sanded the legs and arms plus his torso to mimic shorts and west with nothing else.

torinobradley Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Wasn't there a Chevette that had a couple of figures with the road rally setups? Found it. Stupid expensive for a couple of figures...I bought a set of Prieser G Scale female figure "kits" where you get a few sprues of arms, legs, torsos and heads so you can put together your own dream girl. The good part is all the parts are pretty much designed to go with each other so you are not limited to the figure's pose. The bad part (or good depending on your personal preference) is that they have no clothes on... There is also a male version out there too.Other than that, I have found a few others in toy aisles over the years (like Homies). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we can...figure...out why. I have some in 1/24 and 1/32. All the same parts, just pantographed up or down for the different scales. I've seen some amazing things done with those figures, with modelers using epoxy putty to make clothes for them.Verlinden and Historex/Nemrod did some nude resin figs they called "academy" figures. I guess because art students at Ye Olde Academy used nude people as models.Verlinden also did a nice 1/24 resin California Highway Patrolman. Some online vendors still have them. But if you want one you probably better hurry, since Verlinden is out of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1959scudetto Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 One of the latest editions of revell/Monogram's 1966 chaparral 2 D has a pre-painted driver figure with jet helmet an goggles in it, and Hasegawa has a "Racing figure set" with 2 each sitting and standing race drivers (helmet on or off-option) and grid girls with bathing suit and umbrella.

ChrisBcritter Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) The molds are probably long gone, but the Aurora Mod Squad '50 Mercury wagon had figures of Pete, Linc and Julie. I still have the Julie. Here she is in 1/25 scale: And here she is as the 50-foot Woman: Edited May 27, 2017 by ChrisBcritter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
