Is there a "list" of who makes 10-12mm mini's somewhere?

From my readings, I've read that pithead has the most expansive selection of veheciles….who does the nicer infantry?

This may help:

Either search for what you know about, or rummage through the keyword list, there are some manufacturers listed.

Wargames South does some nice vehicles.

Haven't seen their infantry in the flesh, and there are only scattered pics of them, so can't really comment on those.

Various plastics manufacturers too, e.g. CanDo, etc.

Thanks!

Wargames South does some nice vehicles.

Full 1:144 so compatible with pre-paints, and high-quality. But: you pay for it.

I like Pendraken infantry, pithead vehicles and guns.

We do!

I think we've got the largest selection of 10mm WWII on the market, with somewhere near 800 codes now?

Between the various manufacturers, I think most bases are covered, so it comes down to choice and personal preference really?

Give me a shout if there's anything I can help with, or pop over to our Forum: pendrakenforum.co.uk

I would recommend PENDRAKEN! A good range of figures with great sculpting and details to give character. Sturdily cast with very little or no flash at all. No wonky rifles. Excellent service who will try their best to accommodate

Definitely Pendraken. They're my first stop for all my 10mm needs.

Minifigs has an extensive line.

Then there are the "pre-made" ones from Dragon CanDo range and WTM still widely available. Less availabe are 21st Century and Popy. On the more expensive side are companies like Pro Hobby and Metal Troops. Advantages to all these are they come assembled and painted.

One group you might want to check out is:

For 12mm the Wargames South models and figures are lovely, as are the Dragon and WTM ready-made vehicles.

I mix Wargames-South and Pendraken figs as both artillery models, but not the vehicles, it's a diferent scale (I love 1/144 scale).
I have also some Pithead vehicles, when they are not available in 1/144.


There are hundreds of 10/12mm miniatures pics on my blog.

Another vote for pendraken, excellent service, there figures also fit in with pithead who tend to make the more obsquere (which is not spelt right) vehicles.

There was a similar topic a week ago here on TMp that also dealt with mixing differnt 10/12mm miniatures.

Hauptmann614 Feb 2012 10:24 a.m. PST

I have some Minifigs and they are nice. Not GHQ Microarmor detail though.

Don't forget about the terrain! PaperTerrain has a full range of 10/12mm buildings and accessories.
