Hi, I'm looking for some companies that do 25mm WWII AT guns, as I've got some Valiant Miniatures and and they measure at 25mm
any ideas? thanks D |

I got mine from Crusader, 28's but on the small side of 28mm. They do a Russian & German ATG (that's what I was looking for, they may do more) . I got mine when they were on sale, though. Very nice models, recommended. link Peter |

I used the Hat/Armorfast models, and just substituted the Valiant figures for crew. Looked fine to me. |

Bolt Action Miniatures have a good selection. |

Sgt. Lee, I have the Valiant Minis as well as 28mm minis from Bolt Action, Crusader, and Artizan. They don't mix well. The Valiants are really 1/72 scale and any of the 1/72 models and die-cast tanks and armored vehicles work very well with the Valiants. We use Dragon pre-paints, Forces of Valor die-cast, and other 1/72 scale die-cast armor with them and they look superb. The 1/72 artillery work well with them too. The 1/56 or 1/48 scale vehicles work better with the larger 28mm minis (they are often really 30-32 mm tall as well) and I don't mix them. I just play two distinct sizes, 28mm (with slightly fewer minis and tanks)and 1/72 (with more tanks and men on the table). That's my two bits, good gaming to you. |

The problem I found with the HaT guns was the fact they are made of a very soft plastic, which isn't very nice to stick together

I was on the Valiant miniatures site, and in the gallery there was a nice Pak 40 ( link ) model with Valiant models as crew, this picture is also used on their homepage as a link to the rapid fire page
I've tried to find out where it was obtained but to no luck
if someone could find out I'd be eternally grateful D |

I believe West Wind's vehicles and guns might go well with Valiant's stuff as I have heard it is 1/60th and closer to true 25mm which I have also heard the Valiant stuff is close to as well. Though I haven't put them next to each other myself. |
