G'day all. I have been wondering if anyone makes any WW1 Aussie figures in 1/35th. Anyone seen any?

Nope, closest you might get in 1/35 is WWI British troops, a subject which in itself is becoming scarce. If you're looking for standalone figures, you'll find some in 54mm historicals.

ICM does some WWI British 1/35 troops. I have a set which I plan to work into a diorama with an Emhar Mk V Male and a section of German trench with a few defenders. the kit isn't too shabby and with a little alteration you could make them Aussie.
Basically for Aus troops, the webbing and equipment was the same, same weapons but wore brown boots instead of black.
