A friend of mine who use to build 1:24th cars used to get figures from a company called Ulrich Models.  They were suitable for driver figures in cars and were in kit form so you could build all kinds of poses.  If memory serves they were called Ulrich's Mini-Men.

Hi

You could try Preiser 1/24 scale firemen figures they have two different sets .
I used them on my 1/24 Schnellboot with a little modifying.
