Model Railroading > HO scale peopleDate: 05/16/18 12:29 HO scale people Author: jmj3293 I have been looking on line at a few different model railroad sites and have not been able to find figures that look modern. Most are all from the early 1900’s or dressed in clothing that looks like they are going to church. Anyone know of any company that makes current looking people? It’s hard to find anything.

called "Scenic Accents" - available at most Hobby Stores ! Date: 05/16/18 15:25 Re: HO scale people Author: santafedan jmj3293 Wrote:

I agree with SFDan, Definitely check out the Preiser line of mini people. They offer a wide range of modern international figures, a bit pricey but top of the line.

Look on ebay.co.uk and ebay.de There may be a limited selection on Walthers site

Look on > ebay.co.uk and ebay.de There may be a limited > selection on Walthers site Walthers stocks hundreds including special Walthers only runs. Micro Macro Mundo (Yeah, that's the name!) carries the entire lines of the above companies. Including the elusive Merten figures. Quantity actually in stock is listed. https://www.micromacromundo.com All of the manufacturers above batch produce so many figures in so many scales that there are going to be figures out of stock almost anywhere.
