The Jager Hobby TG13A Crew Figure is a highly detailed and dynamically posed model figure, making it ideal for modern working boats, tugboats, and harbor vessels. Designed for scales ranging from 1:10 to 1:87, this figure adds action and realism to your maritime models, whether used in radio-controlled (RC) applications or static displays.
This figure depicts a hardworking crewman dressed in a work shirt, trousers, and sturdy work boots, complemented by a hard hat for safety. His energetic pose captures the moment of swinging a large sledgehammer overhead, showcasing strength, determination, and movement. Sculpted with meticulous attention to detail—from the folds in his clothing to the dynamic motion of his swing—this figure enhances the sense of labor and activity in any deck scene.
It's particularly well-suited for model tugboats, such as the Billings Boats Danish Tugboat M/S Ymer. Constructed in 1942 in Aalborg for Forenede Bugserselskab, the Ymer was a powerful tugboat operating in Danish waters. After capsizing in Copenhagen’s Frihavn in 1951, its four-man crew was miraculously rescued, and the tug was salvaged to continue its service before being sold to a Greek company in 1975.
For those modeling semi-scale tugboats like the Romarin Neptun, a 1:50 scale replica of a Hamburg harbor tug, this figure is an excellent addition. The real-life Neptun is widely used in harbors globally, making the TG13A Crew Figure perfect for depicting a tugboat at work in heavy-duty maritime conditions.
Crafted from durable, high-quality materials, the TG13A Crew Figure is built to withstand the demands of RC model use while preserving fine sculptural details for static displays. Whether positioned aboard a tugboat engaged in dockside work, preparing for maintenance, or adding life to an active harbor scene, this figure enhances the authenticity of your working boat model with its realistic movement and energy.
