Figurines for 1:24 scale:
Now that I invested into 5 classics coming from Danbury Mint, I was hoping to get some feedback on where I can buy figurines to add in my display case?
Thanks
Will
I can't wait to see how they compare to the 1:43 scales I use to own.

Preiser figures are outstanding....
there a bit tough to find at times as production seems painfully slow. One of the best places to acquire them are through model railroading sites like Walthers.

Thanks Richard:
What scale are these? I looked up the Preiser website and they have a huge list of various sizes.

those are all 1/24.....
but they do come as you've found out in various scales related to model railroading from "G" to "N".

Where did you get the guy W/taxi& Girl w/Conti?
Girl looks like a variation of a Preiser. Never seen the man in the suit

You will have a tough time but keep looking
I have been at this for about 6 weeks now looking for figures to use in my car dealership diorama. The best figures I have obtained so far have been from West Coast Diecast. I ordered #1,#4,#5 they are super. Price is right but it is best to call Vicki's Gifts and order over phone. Figures are 6.95 each and 3 will ship for 4.75.
Go to Walthers on line callup figures and go to page 17 for 1/24 and G scale figures. THere is a guy on E-bay selling these figures for 8.00 each but they are not painted. You don't want to go there. Painting is very labor intensive.
