I wanted a Robot Monster figure for some timeThis was well before the Reaper Deep Sea Diver, when the only gorilla on the market was from Ral Partha's very short lived Conan line. No I have the Alpha Zorgil from ERM and it sits untouched since I primed it. I'm also waiting for the Zed from the warstore.

What don't you need?

Bavarian Horse Grenadier kettle drummers from the War of Jenkins Ear.

Well, SOMEBODY had to ask for it, and this way I've gotten it out of the way.

In that this is a hobby, and none of it is really necessary, I would say:
15th Century Byzantines
Historical Viking warrior women
Skraelings
Please note I don't want anybody to put these last two together and give us a Freydis figure from the saga, pregnant, breast bared, waving a sword, and scaring off the Skraelings.

flooglestreet05 Jan 2012 5:34 a.m. PST

How about WACS from the War of Jenkins Ear?

Yeah; That['d be awesome…

zippyfusenet05 Jan 2012 6:18 a.m. PST

Not-Andy Griffith and not-Barney Fife. 28mm. Mounted and dismounted versions.

Sysiphus05 Jan 2012 7:03 a.m. PST

Dismounted Hittite charioteers.

John D Salt05 Jan 2012 7:04 a.m. PST

I can't at the moment think of anmy requirement I might have for Barney the purple dinosaur kitted out as an Unterscharfuhrer of the 13th Waffen-SS Mountain Division (Handschar) weilding a Panzerfaust Klein in 28mm.

There may be less useful figures, but I can't think of any at the moment.

All the best,

John.

I'd use them, if they were in 10mm.

Dr Mathias Fezian05 Jan 2012 7:21 a.m. PST

I kind of want to get a full set of the terrible, terrible plastic Space Marine scouts and Tyranids for the Tyranid attack game. I have a complete box, minus the figs :(

richarDISNEY05 Jan 2012 8:12 a.m. PST

A 'busty' pulpy gal with torn clothes (scantily clad) wielding a Thompson machine gun in each hand with drum magazines and in a skirt and high heels.
Just sayin'…

The funny thing is… I really do need a figure like this.

@John D Salt Ohhh you're good!

oldhans11705 Jan 2012 8:42 a.m. PST

10MM ACW camp followers, freed slave for the North and for the South non-freed slaves wearing ragged clothing with broad rimed hats. Some carrying boxes and barrel or tools(saws and hammers). completely useless for wargamming but would be nice to have for camps.

skippy000105 Jan 2012 8:54 a.m. PST

Nazi Quakers.

John the OFM05 Jan 2012 9:07 a.m. PST

Zed is not a worthless figure. I got a whole bunch of them. Best of all they can be posed to carry sedan chairs.

But for me, I want Mrs Loring to accompany General Howe.

John the OFM05 Jan 2012 9:08 a.m. PST

Elizabeth Bennet, zombie slayer.

Jovian105 Jan 2012 9:25 a.m. PST

Tinky Winky in a Blue Fez hat together with the rest of the Teletubbies with SS armbands in 28mm. Something to lead a zombie horde.

Wizard Whateley05 Jan 2012 9:48 a.m. PST

Giant spear-armed lungfish in a howdah atop a mastodon.

Mikhail Lerementov05 Jan 2012 10:59 a.m. PST

One more Old Glory "Hey Steve" figure. Then I'll have a one to one battalion of them.

PygmaelionAgain05 Jan 2012 1:02 p.m. PST

I'd like a figure of Marty McFly from Back to the Future. He's not much of a combatant (unless there are trucks of manure on the board), but I still think it'd be a hoot.

Militia Pete05 Jan 2012 3:48 p.m. PST

Not Kevin Sorbo in Hercules Garb from the syndicated show. That will work for the new upcoming Foundry game.

palaeoemrus05 Jan 2012 5:34 p.m. PST

A giant squid playing several banjos at the same time. I'd settle for for a very large cuttlefish playing some ukuleles in a pinch.

TheCount05 Jan 2012 7:20 p.m. PST

A unit of X-Factor contestants. No wait, they could actually be useful as Zombies. Never mind!

Whatever happened to Broomhandle Mauser Girl? And I need a t-shirt of her too!

I want them in 15mm.

Gennorm06 Jan 2012 8:07 a.m. PST

15mm Spanish Inquisition for my FoG-R camp.

rampantlion06 Jan 2012 3:01 p.m. PST

War dogs and handler, I have like sets of them and all that I have gamed are massed battle rules. I have absolutely no use for them, but they look cool and are unpainted and unpackaged.

I've painted flaming war pigs or customers!

I'm not ambitious, I just want a nice range of Swedish and Danish infantry from the 1801-1807 period!
