Do you mean the Tamiya single figure kits ?

Ive seen the Luftwaffe pilots go on ebay for a couple of quid, they dont turn up too often tho.

thats the same range but model shop dude only had a german cavalry kit.
its very impressive but at £17.50 out of my range.
found a seller in hong kong who has a good range of single fig kits but his postage is a bit high.
found a few german action figs in the states but with the weak pound and high postage again i cant justify the cost

they were buy one get one free in the woolies sale, but I think they are all gone now.

RRP is £9.99, I think toytown has them for £7.99 ? still might find one on ebay ?

I have just tried the german helmet on a Z force radio operator and it is a little small, it would need gently dremmeling to fit. it also has goggles on the front which may need removing.

I got a couple of Germans that were about six quid each off eBay. From same range as as bendy's helmet I think. All packed away at minute, so can't check! Sorry.

this might be easier to find and may work?

the US helmets were based on German helmets.
