Hi there,
A long time ago I was at a model show where I saw a set of two (maybe three) figures representing German mountain troops (Gebirgsjäger). The set was comprised of one figured posing as someone sending a rope down the cliff. The second figured was posed as someone receiving the rope and getting ready to climb the mountain. There may have been a third one but I am not sure. I believe that they came in separate boxes.
Does anyone know the figures I am referring to?
I would like to get my hands on those figures but don't know who manufactured them and Google searches have not produced any results.

That was a nice dio but am not sure who did the figures. D.M.L. makes two sets which might work with some repositioning. Hope it helps you.

Thanks. Dragon indeed has a few Gebirgsjäger figure sets and I have most of them but I really want the one I mentioned.

Marty, wouldn't it be a conversion? Or probably you were referring to this:

I remember the set, but just can't remember who made the figures.
If it's the set I'm thinking of, it also included the rockface.

Nice figure, Marty. I can see why you want it Royal Model don't appear to have an accompanying figure for it in their catalogue though... pity.

Glad to be of help. From the Royal Model website, it says you have options for either just the figure or one with the rock (?) base. Availability-wise am not too sure. Anyways, hope you get to find one. Cheers
