I know that Rebel Minis has plans to do some of their own soon.

TMP link

However, in the meantime, are there any 15mm modern government agents (in suits) already in production from other sources???

Thanks.

Someone wants to play Matakishi's "alien invasion" game?

:)

(I did it in 28mm for the chir'ren, and they loved it. Rules were so simple and the game was fast action)

Cacique Caribe11 Apr 2009 2:31 p.m. PST

You got it, bud!

And if there are noticeable differences in height between manufacturers, guess what my bigger figures are gonna be?

Smokey Roan11 Apr 2009 2:37 p.m. PST

Great!

His game is great fun, and you can always move on to more complicated games and scenarios. (Matakishi's games are nothing if not a great lead in to a rules/scenario genre)

And of course, the world famous CC "link to a TMP thread, that links to a TMP thread, that links to a TMP thread", ad nauseum.

:) :) :)

Cacique Caribe11 Apr 2009 2:41 p.m. PST

Yept. That's me.

You know what they say, a picture is worth a thousand words!

Matakishi has lots of pictures too:

His terrian is always so clean.

Mine is always dirty, weathered and grimey. (I'm a messy builder and painter, so "weathered" works for me)

:)

Cacique Caribe12 Apr 2009 4:43 a.m. PST

Ok. I've checked the following 15mm manufacturers and cannot find any:

Rebel Minis (still too soon)
15mmUK
QRF
Old Crow
Khurasan

Am I missing any?

This is all I could find (see bottom of page), and there are no photos (plus can't tell if they mean 15mm or 25mm):

link

Does anyone know if those GZGs are 15mm or 25mm, or have photos of them?

Thanks.

CC

Cyclops12 Apr 2009 5:52 a.m. PST

£1.00 GBP each? They better be 25mm. :)

Cacique Caribe12 Apr 2009 12:09 p.m. PST

AB,

You know what? I never did look at the price. Good catch.

Well, I believe my quest is a bust, until Rebel Minis do theirs. I guess they'll be opening new ground then. Going where no 15mm manufacturer has gone before . . .

CC

Cacique Caribe22 May 2009 11:20 a.m. PST

Any other suggestions???

Thanks.

Is Matakishi ever going to finish the section on the Greys?

Cacique Caribe22 May 2009 8:17 p.m. PST

Can't wait to see what he comes up with next!

Actually I'll be making government agents in 15mm, but they will be early 20th C agents, not early 21st! grin A young american big game huntress, a veteran of many an African safari, as well as a proper British chap who is an archaeologist. Both in fact are spies on Mystri Island, working for the Allies circa 1917. Their opposite number, a German officer of the Guards, has also been sculpted (he's got a monacle and a broomhandle mauser and everything, perfect as a characterful WWI german officer of the late-war period in 15mm).

Janice is six feet tall, with an elephant gun by H&H. Richard and Kuno are taller still! These will join the Accursed Getinmahbeli, the Reptilians, the vampires and zombies, and all the other stuff made or being made for Mystri Island over the coming year or so.

Mulder and Scully they ain't, though. Richard is in a formal suit and a pith helmet. grin

You could do some Lovecraft Game with these khurasan.

Man, I love these MIBs:

Wish we had something like it already – for 15mm.

So many figure choices for 28mm (for MIB, FBI, etc.) . . .

TMP link

Yet, all this time, none for 15mm!!! Unbelievable.

Pole Bitwy PL09 Jun 2009 8:06 p.m. PST

I was informed that the problem with sculpting Agents is due to their attire. We wouldn't want to employ MIB dressed in something looking a lot like jeans and sweaters…

Nevertheless rest assured I am working on some 'professionals' in business attire. After all what VIP doesn't need a bodyguard ?

Cacique Caribe10 Jun 2009 10:40 p.m. PST

"I was informed that the problem with sculpting Agents is due to their attire. We wouldn't want to employ MIB dressed in something looking a lot like jeans and sweaters…"

Just "Secret Service" suits would do, but with pistols and other small weapons in hand:

I know. I may be asking WAAAY too much, but I would love to have all these poses in 15mm (plus a couple of females too):

I can dream, right?

CC

Cacique Caribe10 Jun 2009 11:59 p.m. PST

Another example of attire . . .

I like the way these guys are dressed and armed, except for the beards (and the fact that they are not 15mm).

CC

Cacique Caribe03 Jul 2009 11:48 p.m. PST

For "Warehouse 13", perhaps?

Cacique Caribe06 Aug 2009 11:00 a.m. PST

Rebel Mike,

I am trying to convert your figure (front center) into an agent:

link
link

I plan to add a tie, a little hair, and get rid of the facial hair.

Other than that, I have nothing. Your other guys in suits aren't posed to hold weapons:

link
rebelminis.com/15moci.html
link
rebelminis.com/15cico.html

There are so, so many options for 28mm gaming, but none really for 15mm:
TMP link

Are you still planning on making armed guys in suits?

Last we heard was . . . "The MIBs are on the workbench :) I have several MIBs planned. Standard with Pistols, shotguns, one with a Overcoat, and a Few with Windbreakers…
much MiB goodness!" TMP link

If so, it would be fantastic if you made them the height of the guy in the first link (the one I plan to add a tie to).

Thanks.

Dan

Cacique Caribe06 Aug 2009 5:13 p.m. PST

From Rebel Mike:

"Hey Dan,
They are still in development . . . I gave it to a new sculptor. I hope to have something soon :)

I just did a pair of British Bobbies with some left over green. Not quite MiB in wind cheaters but thought they might be of interest.

Cacique Caribe19 Nov 2009 8:29 p.m. PST

Geoff,

I missed this post of yours. What did they end up looking like?

Dan

Cacique Caribe24 Nov 2009 11:38 a.m. PST

Well, it looks like Rebel now has both Mall Cops and US Policemen (Mike's latest release):

rebelminis.com/mallcops.html
rebelminis.com/15uspo.html

Does that mean that the Feds are on the horizon? :)

Dan

Wellspring24 Nov 2009 5:44 p.m. PST

Word is that they are working on MiBs but the first sculpts were disappointing so they're continuing to work on it.

Cacique Caribe24 Nov 2009 10:00 p.m. PST

Hey. As long as they are still working on it, all is good.

Thanks.

Dan

Wellspring25 Nov 2009 7:50 a.m. PST

Honestly I'd rather they get them right than release them faster. Rebel does work of very high quality and I appreciate where they've taken the 15mm sci fi world (GZG too of course).

Thesceneuk Sponsoring Member of TMP25 Nov 2009 8:43 a.m. PST

I have three greens finished, and hope to have two more finished before the end of Decemeber. They should be available the first week of January.

Mike

Cacique Caribe25 Nov 2009 10:52 a.m. PST

Mike,

Any chance we could see photos of those greens?

Thanks.

Dan

Thesceneuk Sponsoring Member of TMP25 Nov 2009 11:23 a.m. PST

I will do my best to get some more pics taken over the weekend. As you can see from some of the pics on the website, I need to get a new camera. I have tried a few times to get some good pictures but they are coming out very blurred at the moment. As soon as I can I will get them put on the site.

Mike

Cacique Caribe25 Nov 2009 11:35 a.m. PST

Mike,

Don't ruin your holiday trying to sort that out. If it becomes too tedious, wait until after the weekend.

Dan

Cacique Caribe19 Dec 2009 11:00 p.m. PST

TheSceneUK's Mike,

Got my 6 agents (the three here x 2) in the mail today. They look absolutely fantastic!!!!!!!!!!

You are certainly filling a key niche with this new Government Agent range. Can't wait to see what the others in the range will look like.

Thanks so much.

Very cool looking! The third one from the left looks a little like Elvis, don't you think? Or am I being too paranoid?

The hotwheels vans look very good, too.

abbcampbell01 Jul 2010 10:45 a.m. PST

Has anyone seen Mike (TheSceneUK) in a while? I have some questions for him re: these figs, but haven't had any luck reaching him for the last week via the "contact" form on his webpage.

Thanks!

Thesceneuk Sponsoring Member of TMP01 Jul 2010 11:11 a.m. PST

Hi Andrew.

I have received your emails, for some reason every time I try to reply to your email, my mail is rejected.
You are simply not receiving my Emails.
I have the same problem with C.C.
FIGURES ARE ON THEIR WAY.
AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR MY COCK UP.

Mike

abbcampbell01 Jul 2010 7:37 p.m. PST

Much appreciated, Mike! I was hoping it was something like that. By the way, the figures that did arrive are *beautiful!*

I do have another question for you as well, though, unrelated to the slip up in the order. I'll try a different email so as not to hijack the thread further than I have already.

Etranger01 Jul 2010 7:52 p.m. PST

Received mine a couple of weeks ago. They are very nice & just what I was looking for. Very MIB/X-Files

Thesceneuk Sponsoring Member of TMP02 Jul 2010 1:59 a.m. PST

No joy with the emails.
SORRY ANDY
As for the other question, no probem with useing the pictures.

Mike

abbcampbell09 Jul 2010 11:56 a.m. PST

Mike, the rest of the order showed up today. Gorgeous! Also the bonus items are much apprecited, and will fit right in with a project I'm working on!

Great product, and great customer service!

Thesceneuk Sponsoring Member of TMP10 Jul 2010 3:12 a.m. PST

Cheers Andy
New ones are being worked on at the moment.
So will keep you updated on releases.

Cacique Caribe10 Jul 2010 6:59 a.m. PST

New ones?

QUESTIONS:

Has anyone tried gaming with their 15mm Agents yet? If so, any pics of the game(s) you did?
