More in the vein of TMNT, mutant animals or anything of the like?

Depends on what you mean by "doing".

That's a rather personal question!

Whatever happened to the old "Ironclaw" and "Jadeclaw" lines?

I know that the RPG had some of their iconic anthropomorphic characters available… though I don't want to cast aspersions by using the word "Furry" here on the internet, they certainly might fit the description.

There's also the entire Critter Commandos line which are pretty darn nifty.

I was pretty ticked years ago when I discovered "furries." Completely ruined my love of TMNT and Other Strangeness style mutant animals. I don't want mutant animals that look like cartoons or anime or…jebus forbid…sexy. One thing that Palladium ever did right was the style of anthropomophic animals in their After the Bomb series of RPGs.

There were some licensed mutant animal and TMNT minis made by a defunct company called Dark Horse in the late '80's. I've considered buying some on ebay but they tend to be expensive. Anyone remember the "Terror Bears?" Tiny little bear mutants with evil psychic powers.

Splintered Light might have the sort of thing that you want, in their 15mm fantasy ranges.

Alot of the D&D plastic prepaints would work well. Owlbears, umberhulks, and the like. I was looking through my stuff the other day for some mutant animals for a Mutants and Deathray Gun game in the near future.

Some of the Critter Commandos would work as anthropomorphic mutant animals, although most of the sculpts are *very* cartoonish: link

If you just want non-anthropomorphicmutant animals, just about any fantasy or sci-fi creature would work. For examplle, I use the old Grenadier Traveller Alien Animals in post-apocalyptic games. (Couldn't find a photo online.)

Check out the Rifts Coalition Dog Soldier Pack by Paladium.

They're not cartoony.

One could also use the Crocodile Games Aegyptus figures. The Basti and the bird-headed guys, what are they, the Heru?

lol, guess I should have been more specific on my verbiage!


Some of the critter commandoes might work, they're not too bad. I'm mostly loooking for anthropomorphized critters near future sort of gear.
