I am looking for a model suitable to use as a sci fi pilot something like this; picture Thought there could be something suitable in a modern range, perhaps vietnam? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Regards Chris |

Go to Peter Pig and buy a pack of their Israeli Tank Commander heads. Stick one of them on the miniature of your choice. |

Do you know of any pics of the PP Israeli heads please? Cheers Chris |

I have a seated crew figure (somewhere), but meanwhile, would these help? : link |

Hi Geoff, Sorry I should have been clearer; I want a fully standing miniature that I can use in rescue scenarios etc. Nice figs though, might get a pack to custom one of my sci fi APC's. The 2nd figure in from the left, who is pointing. Does he have a beret on? Cheers Chris |

Yep, same figure as the third along in the bottom row, just showing the back. No standing/wounded/'Behind enemy Lines' aircrew yet. One day. |

I thought somethinmg like this would be suitable but can't seem to find anything in any 15mm Vietnam ranges; picture Cheers Chris |

I would go with Ground Zero Games SG15-A18 NEW – Available: 931 NAC troopers seated (9 figs, 3 each of 3 poses – including one bareheaded with separate helmet) And any of standing NAC troopers could be Pilots too. |

Bandit86; I have seen those GZG NAC's and really like them but will be collecting them seperately as my next 15mm sci fi army! I want this pilot figure to fit with QRF's "Deep space marines". I thought I would find something in a Vietnam or modern range but can't seem to find anything suitable in the 15mm Vietnam ranges I am familiar with. Cheers Chris |

Peter Pig also do some nice downed air crew on foot in their Vietnam range. Which I'm currently painting up for use in an Ambush Alley rescue scenario
|
McLovin | 01 Jun 2010 9:31 a.m. PST |
Colonel Bogey; I've seen them and like all PP figs really liked them but not quite what i'm after. I'm looking for a figure with thier helmet on with a hand gun as apose to a machine gun. Maybe I am just being too specific as I can't find anything. Might need to find a suitable pilot head and do a head swop. Thanks for all the suggestions. Chris |

Some of the new GZG Light UNSC troops would look excellent, if they will produce seated variants of them. You'll have to ask Jon nicely though. I've been bugging him for seated troops for some time, for spaceshuttles, spaceship crews, etc. About the closest minis that appear somewhat seated are their floating astronaut figs. |

Von T; Really like the RAFM figs, be able to use most of the other figs in that set too. Thanks Regards Chris |
