Hello all!
Would anyone be able to tell me where I can purchase those wonderful Hecker & Goros 1/72 Kreigsmarine metal figures in North America? (or similar quality figures by other manufacturers) They would look great on my S-100 Schnellboote. Thanks for any leads you can give me!
A Google search turned up this site. I have never done business with them and know nothing about them. It is a start anyway

Squadron Mail Order (http://www.squadron.com/) offers quite a few 1/72 figures that, though they seem primarily to be intended for the Revell U-boat, would be quite at home on board an S-boat. Here’s what I got when I did a search on that site for “1/72-Figures,naval”: http://www.squadron.com/SearchResults.asp?offset=0 .
The only one of those manufacturers that I’m familiar with is Andrea. I haven’t seen any Andrea 1/72 offerings, but its 54 mm. figures are excellent.
