I have spent nearly an entire day trying to source some figures and I wonder if anybody can help? I'm trying to find bare-chested figures (1/35) without boots on. Specifically German WWII but without uniforms, so I don't suppose it matters. I've tried Verlinden, CMK, just about everyone! Anybody help?

Mike! Do you have any idea where I can find them? I've been looking all day and can't find anything like that?

These may be to large for your needs but Preiser do a set of nude figures in 1/32(54mm) scale. They are a multi-pose set of parts. You can see them at this site http://www.preiser.co.uk/, go to 1/32 and look for the Adam figures.
