Short and sweet, this one – surely someone must make kung-fu monks in 28mm? But who?

Thanks.

Hasslefree has some that might work.

Brigade games has some in the rattrap productions .45 adventures line.

Amazon makes Shaolin Monks I have three sets that I've turned into a bloodbowl team. They're a little crude in some ways, but I'm very happy with them now that they're painted.

They're listed under "Martial Arts" on their page.

This should save you some time looking. :)

Flashman, the Eureka link you had seems to be for Irregular 6mm minis (sold by Eureka).

The Rattrap monks (formerly made by Mammoth Miniatures, IIRC) are nice. A tad twodimensional, but nice poses.

Hasslefree has martial artists. One of them looks like a Shaolin monk.

I have a distinct memory of a set of buddhist monks, seated, standing, begging, etc, but I cannot recall who made them.

I've long thought it odd that there are so few kung fu figures – it ought to be easy to make a good skirmish game out of kung fu/wuxia movies.

Heroclix has some kung fu types.

aeg made some as part of the dragon clan for l5r. i think they were called isezumi monks or something like that but they were very nice. hasslefree's monk is also very good but their figs a little small sometimes compared to what others are making.

Henrix, are you thinking of pulp figures monks?

Thanks, tnnlynch, those are the ones.

The Privateer Press 'Order of the Fist' monk needs a little GS, but he's in a great 'boot-to-head' pose.

There are a couple of sci-fi Shaolin monk figures in the Yu Jing faction of Infinity.

I think that there are 3 sculpts in total.

Hasslefree has some that might work.

They're more like 30mm/heroic scale. They are way too big, especially next to other Hasslefree minis.
