Most Difficult Figure to Find

I was just wondering for those who have been able to find D-Day, DAK and Wermacht figures, which one has been the hardest to find?
I have found most of what I want and most of them are the German figures but the Sgt. Otto Wilndorff ( the one in the funky camo) is the hardest to find in my AO.

I have only come across Windorff once so far, as well. Russo and Jenkins have also been rather rare, at least around here. Richards and the artillery spotter were late to the game, but once they were out, they seemed to be everywhere around here. And no shortage of the DAK figures or the tankers.
Roll call, all present...

Normandy---what a difference a few miles makes, I guess...the only steady trickle during the current XD drought out here in Suffolk has been a steady supply of D-Day figures, including plenty of Bucholtz...they're snatched up pretty quickly, but predictably the tankers move a little more slowly...stocks are low now, I wonder if we'll see another infusion...& let's see what all the TRUs on L.I. bring to the party...here's hopin'...!

I see pretty much every one but Richards and the artillery spotter here in my part of atlanta - I still have many stores with pegs of japanese and OMG figures -
Tons of Dak and short jackets - and D-Day - the tankers are getting harder to find.

All of them are pretty hard to find around here.

When the first wave came out all the walmarts around me had about 12 guys each. Now they have none all though one near me claims to have 29 in stock but lost somewhere in the backroom

I have found all the figures in my area by now, but the Bucholtz and Tracker Richards figures were the hardest to come by. For a few months, the first wave figures were the most plentiful - including the Windorf figure

The second wave then showed up, but went almost as quickly, only to re-appear again about a month ago. The second wave first showed without the Tracker or Bucholtz figure. Then one day, like magic, they were there as well. The Bucholtz figure actually disappeared the quickest from the latest restocks in my area. I guess his range-finder scope has some sort of appeal to other hidden collectors in my area!

Wermacht figures are the hardest here. We have plenty of d-day and dak figs though

I find whole sets alot on the road.
If anyone is looking for a particular figure (or set), let me know. I'll sell you one of mine, or pick up one while at work.

Around the greater KC area, all the figures have shown up several times except Tracker and the German Artillery figure. So far they have been no-shows.

I have yet to find the German radio operator.

Luftpanzer, which is the german raido operator?

There is no German radio-operator... Perhaps you're thinking of the artillery spotter or one of the tankers with the headphones?
