Our range of new figures and accessories for the Rapido OO9 products also includes:

• Two packs of seated workmen for the man-rider wagons
• Guard figure
• Sheep for the livestock wagons

The full-colour figures are printed in colour resin and ready to place straight onto your layout, while the grey resin versions offer a more affordable option for modellers who prefer to paint their own figures.

Designed specifically around Rapido’s new OO9 range, these figures and accessories are ideal for adding life to your narrow-gauge scenes.
