TG14A Crew Figure is a finely detailed and historically inspired addition to 1930s fishing boats and coastal steamers, designed to enhance the realism of 1:48 scale models like the Caldercraft Talacre – Single Hatch Coaster. This figure captures the essence of a hardworking seafarer from the golden era of steam, adding character and authenticity to both radio-controlled (RC) and static display models.

Dressed in a loose-fitting shirt with rolled-up sleeves, thigh-length trousers, and sturdy work boots, the figure embodies the look of a classic fishing boat crewman or coal trade sailor. Around his neck, he holds a pair of vintage binoculars, poised in a natural stance as he looks up into the distance, scanning the horizon for the next task or incoming weather. His rugged seaman’s beard completes the appearance of a seasoned mariner who has spent years working the unpredictable waters of the U.K. coastline.

The SS Talacre, built in 1917 for the Point of Ayr Collieries, was a single-hatch coaster that played a vital role in the coal trade, a type of vessel once found by the hundreds around the British coast. Named after a small village near the colliery, Talacre remained in service until 1959, reflecting the hard-wearing nature of these vessels and their crews.

Crafted from high-quality, durable materials, the TG14A Crew Figure is designed to withstand the demands of RC model use while maintaining fine sculptural details for static displays. Whether positioned near the wheelhouse of a coal steamer, standing watch on a fishing boat, or adding life to a harbor diorama, this figure brings the atmosphere of 1930s maritime life to your 1:48 scale model.

The height mentioned corresponds to a scale measurement; for example, a 6-ft man will be represented accurately at the appropriate scale.
