Thanks guys.

No full figures specifically for RC, the market is too small. I did the Russian for the JS-2 and it took much more time getting it to fit the Tamiya base and assemble to grip the hatch, etc. than it would to create a separate kit with a cupola for the figure painters. A resin 1/16 goes for $50-60 in the figure world, but that Russian is slow mover at $25.

I'll do the US tanker head as a full (and the rest of the tank's crew) as a static kit with cupola that you can adapt, but offering the heads would be an inexpensive way to upgrade what's out there. Tamiya's M4 TC has the pose close enough, so if you want 'Wardaddy' in charge, just add the head.

Here's the Russian if you haven't seen it, I'll be reworking the master to hold communication flags and adding a cupola to the kit.
