Schuco makes Figures which it includes in many of its construction sets and also sells seperately. This newly made set of three (from my collection) came in a Schuco box marked by a sticker on one side with the warning "Nicht geeignet fur Kinder unter 14 Jahren" (Not for Children under 14). Thay are made of (hand ?) painted resin by "Schuco GmbH & Co.", Numberg (Sporting A "Made in China" sticker under there bases).       Thay are made in 1:24 Scale. The Fahrer (Driver) is 3 Inches tall. The Zeitnehmers (time keepers) sign is a seperate piece (it keeps falling off) but you can not change what it says.       These are the most common guys I have seen. Thay are in some very early sets and are currently being produced. There are many others but how much can you put on a web page about figures ?       I purchased these guys new, for $14.95 on 5/10/00.
