So easy for you experienced modelers; but I need advice:  I want to find a source(s) for 1/25 scale 'teenage' figures for sitcom diorama.  I realize my '50 sitcom layout: Lumpy's '40 Ford ragtop (with rear axle chained to a tree) and Bud's hand-flamed Ford A touring broken down won't have any impact without the figures of Lumpy Rutherford, Wally Cleaver, Eddie Haskell, (Leave It To Beaver) and Bud Anderson (Father Knows Best).  A 'fifties deb for Bud would be nice, too!

Could some helpful soul give me an expert shortcut to finding adaptable figurines for these characters?  I've never don figs before, but the forum has been very encouraging to me so far on the topic.  I guess a guy with an MA. in art could give it a try!~  Thanks very much!  Wick

There was a series called "Campus Friends". I don't recall who made them Fujimi, maybe? A Google search for 1/24 scale figures should provide a lot of sources, I'd think. Sorry I'm not more help, I've never done much research into figures.

Master Box makes several 1/24 figures that could be suitable for your needs. Though many of their figures are 1/35 military subjects, and many of their 1/24 figures are sci-fi, pinup, and fantasy subjects, many more are normal civilians in street clothes.

Scroll thru the listing here to start...

Yep. The "Dangerous Curves Series" may have something although they may be a bit ummm...developed for teenagers. https://www.mbltd.info/figures/1-24-scale.html These are very nice figures actually. The only issue is they are made in the Ukraine so supplies may be limited right now.

G Scale model railroad figures are also available in many different poses and makes. Not as detailed at the MB stuff but probably suitable. https://www.amazon.ca/P2501B-24pcs-Model-Trains-Architectural/dp/B07DWFRQB5
