Just bought this. Curious if anyone knows of a decent Afrika Korps staff or officers set that will fit in with this kit? It could use more than just the included figure of Rommel in the compartment. Maybe 2-3 more figures. Was thinking maybe some of the old dragon figures or verlinden. Hopefully the detail will match the Takom ones. So far I have found one Hobby Fan figure set that might be compatible.

You can search for DAK, D.A.K, D.A.K. Afrika Korps, African Korps, also Corps.
Dragon 6063 and 6193 could also fit. Tristar 35011 or SOL MM863 are possible.
Some relaxed soldiers singing Lilly Marlene are from D-Day Miniature Studio 35247.
If you want a batlle scene, don't use heads with the "Tropenhelm". This was only for soldiers way behind the front.

Thanks guys, I saw the crew with Rommel on the tank but I am going after a look as if the 250 is in motion across the desert and 2-3 officers are riding along and standing with Rommel on the advance.i will tell a funny story here. But when I was a child, before I knew much about the German military in WW2. I did the Tamiya sdkfz 221 kit. I built it as an Afrika Korps vehicle and used SS license plates. ROFL. In those days I was not aware that the Waffen SS had not served in Africa. I still laugh about that on occasion. LOL
I do have Dragon No. 6193 in my stash. That soldier with binoculars will be perfect as would the gunner or radioman (the kit has a driver). Had not thought of that! Just need to paint tropical uniforms instead. Thanks!

D-Day Miniature Studio released a new figure set for the Takom 250/3 "Greif". I order the figure set today by MBK (Modellbau König) and i add the kit on
Scalemates (D-Day Miniature Studio Kit-No 35283).

Ok that figure set is perfect and beautiful. Thanks for that!!! It sure is light years above the old 70s Tamiya kit isn't it?
