New Year wish?

What or which figure do you wish to see made this year

Size?
Scale?

May be a manufacture will read this and make it?

Pictors Studio28 Dec 2007 12:53 p.m. PST

28mm high quality Great Paraguayan War figs.

zippyfusenet28 Dec 2007 12:56 p.m. PST

28mm not-Andy Griffith Show characters. Andy, Barney, Aunt Bea and Opie for sure.

Don't tell Andy, don't tell Aunt Bea,
They're prob'ly lookin' for Opie and me.

17th Century Japanese peasants, monks, townfolk, etc. in 28mm.

28mm Perry AWI Lee's Legion

rusty musket28 Dec 2007 1:38 p.m. PST

I want the Perry's to sculpt a Zouave that is loading his musket to put with the firing group that Foundry sells. I shoot too low, don't I.

madhatter6628 Dec 2007 1:51 p.m. PST

The Quartermaster up and running again would top my Xmas list [yes, I know not exactly figure and scale]. Okay, a complete line of 15mm 1848 Hungarian Rev. War figures, at a reasonable price.

15mm Amazons in Bronze Age gear to combat my Achians, complete with chariots, archers, queen, etc. And some cool 15mm slave girls + 18th century courtesans.

madhatter6628 Dec 2007 2:49 p.m. PST

OOOPS, I meant New Year's wish [too late for me in Poland!]

I'd also love to see some 15mm or 18mm Lace Wars females – cossacks or otherwise. I've got a lot of left over figures and I'm painting them up as an imagi-countries. I just need some females to 'spice' things up!

case2428 Dec 2007 3:42 p.m. PST

15mm wolfhounds to run with my Scots-Irish and Pictish chariots. Please!

28mm Perry Polish Insurrection of 1794 figures and the Russians (in the Potempkin uniforms) to fight them.

Jeigheff28 Dec 2007 4:57 p.m. PST

Some 20mm AWI… er, American Revolution figures to round out Frying Pan and Blanket's range is my heart's desire at the moment.

American militia in non-frontier dress would be very useful. I'd also like to see some German jaegers. Also welcome would be American and British line infantrymen without backpacks.

Grelber28 Dec 2007 5:05 p.m. PST

28mm Greeks for the Greek War of Independence--they look so dashing and romantic in their fustanellas (kilts) with swords and pistols stuck in their sashes! They would be great fun to paint. There are already some nice Turks out there for them to fight.

Grelber

Atomic Floozy28 Dec 2007 6:10 p.m. PST

Oooh, I have a list:

1. a 28mm Mariachi Band
2. more 28mm Southern Plains Indians… Conquest has a good start on the Comanche
3. Native American Characters such as Lone Wolf, Quanah Parker, Satanta, etc.

28mm Perry AWI Lee's Legion

Any decent British Legion cavalry will work for the cavalry, but the infantry element is definitely missing. See Troiani.

Mounted AWI Jaegers.

All the elements of The Band at Bennington. This is the only missing element of that Flying column.

A licemsed 28mm Flashmn range.

British in the silly hats, for the '98. Trent is already doing the Irish, but finding a listing of that range anywhere is impossible.

25mm/28mm resin Valcour Island boats.

18th C American theatre troops in blanket coat for winter fighting. Useful for FIW, AWI, etc.

Hanging man vignettes. For the rescue of the hangee thereof by stout-hearted men.

Late 19th C Mittel-Europe types for VSF Zenda, Ruritania, Triune Monarchy of Scythia-Pannonia-Trans Balkania, Graustark, etc.
Wupewt of Wuwitania. Lots of Gents in cavalry undress order for swanning about, up to no good, and in full dress for the wedding to Flavia/Irma.

Homeric Gods and Goddesses in 28mm, to match Redoubt, Foundry, Old Glory, eureka, etc. Athena et al to fit in chariot as driver.
Penthiselia, and her court. Mounted, as in Quintus of Smyrna, and also as chariot warrior, for the more traditional.

All of the above 25/28mm, of course.

Clibinarium sculpting a full French Revoltionary War range.

GarrisonMiniatures29 Dec 2007 2:21 a.m. PST

For assorted 25mm civilians and scenes of torture, try Irregular

irregularminiatures.co.uk

Supercilius Maximus29 Dec 2007 3:46 a.m. PST

More Perry AWI.

Dixon to add to their 15mm Age of Marlborough range after all these years……..

CuorDiLeone29 Dec 2007 10:40 a.m. PST

I would like some 28mm brunswick sharpshooters and characters for 1815.

Catoctinmike29 Dec 2007 10:48 a.m. PST

Well –

- 25 mm Danes for League of Augsburg (see Eureka 100 Club), Foundry/Dixon Scale

- 28 mm imperial troops (or any other flavor for that period) for the period of 1670-1685. This would go with the Siege of Vienna period and could be used for the Scanian war, or Flanders and the Dutch war for that matter. Long coats, apostles, baggy pants, and floppy black hats with feathers. Restoration style calvary to go with them. Do a lot of them with many poses and and figures.

- and 28mm Danes from the 1700 to 1720 period; would be compatible with the current Front Rank range; actually it would be best if Front Rank did them.

Mike

zippyfusenet29 Dec 2007 10:11 p.m. PST

I'll have a copy of everything ElaineP ordered. And about half of the OFM's list. Well, maybe not half, but the British in silly hats, anyway.

Personal logo Artilleryman Supporting Member of TMP30 Dec 2007 4:37 a.m. PST

More vivandieres, cantinieres, sutleresses, surgeons, servants, dogs etc from the Perrys for their AWI and Napoleonic ranges. I like to add the non-combatant rear echelon folk for a bit of colour and 'depth'.

docdennis196830 Dec 2007 12:10 p.m. PST

I thought everything was already done in all scales that everyone wanted, with easy availability, and reasonable prices!! Guess I could be wrong on some of that!!

Archangel30 Dec 2007 5:10 p.m. PST

28mm AWI Continental Light Infantry in caps.

Huscarle31 Dec 2007 4:20 a.m. PST

28mm Civilians (especially 16th Century European).
28mm Female Hussar type (both mounted & foot version).

Festus Haggen01 Jan 2008 11:26 a.m. PST

1.) a 28mm Mariachi Band
2. 28 mm French Infantry of the FIW
3.) 28mm Festus Haggen and Stumpy mini

Judge Bean02 Jan 2008 8:39 a.m. PST

I'd like to see Festus Haggen's figures too. And I'd raise it with 19th Century Choctaw figures.
I'd also like to see the Sacketts in 28mm, specifically:
Tell
Oren
Tyrel

madhatter66,

"I'd also love to see some 15mm or 18mm Lace Wars females – cossacks or otherwise. I've got a lot of left over figures and I'm painting them up as an imagi-countries. I just need some females to 'spice' things up!"

Lace Wars + Imagi-Nations, and even + female minis: I simply cannot resist such a reference!

Doyou have a blog? If not, please endvisga it, and krrp us informed!

Cheers,
Jean-Louis

GiloUK07 Jan 2008 6:31 a.m. PST

I'd like to see the Perry AWI range release the following: Lee's Legion, American light infantry in caps, British Guards, Washington's Life Guard (in their funny caps), negro militia.

Kharis31 Jan 2008 9:15 p.m. PST

How about Tector Gorch (Ben Johnson), Lyle Gorch (Warren Oates), Pike Bishop (William Holden), and Dutch Engstrom (Ernest Borgnine) from the "Wild Bunch" in 28mm?

picture

Or maybe the Charles Bronson character from "Once upon a Time in the West"

weissenwolf03 Feb 2008 9:12 a.m. PST

decent carriages, coaches, landaus, in 15's and 28's. also bridging pontoon sets.

abdul666lw03 Feb 2008 3:43 p.m. PST

weissenwolf,
don't they all exist already, at least in 25 – 28mm? I rememeber a review on Der Alte Fritz Journal…

Gallowglass03 Feb 2008 5:48 p.m. PST

28mm French & Indian War British and French regulars, plus some artillery and baggage wagons – all made by Conquest Miniatures.
