"28mm Citadel Gangsters Compatible With...?" Topic

Hey all. I just impulse-bought a bunch of Citadel Gangsters/Roaring '20s type figures on ebay. They are a bit hard to find, so I'm wondering if there are any other ranges made currently with which they would be compatible as far as size and style. Anybody doing '20s skirmish???

Thanks,

What gangsters? Have a pic? I cannot seem to find any..

Here they are:

Grenadier? TSR Gangbusters? Same era, same scale.

Good ideas – any idea where one would get inexpensive diecast cars for the project?

Thanks!

Steve Barber's Prohibition range would probably also mix ok.

They look great! most people use yesteryear models although they are 1/43…some Corgi trucks might also be good and more in scale.

How about a pic next to a ruler so we can see the size and then give you some figures in the same size range?

We have a range of gangsters but I am not sure how big or small the Citadel ones are.

Hi,
I'm guessing that these figures will be true 25mm so the best modern match might be Steve Barber. Brigade Games might also match as they are on the smaller side for modern 28mm figures (they are a lot smaller than the Copplestone Gangsters).
For vehicles DON'T use the 1/43 Matchbox Models of Yesteryear. They are way too big. A much better match are the LLedo "Days Gone By" cars and trucks. They fit perfectly with the Dixons and RAFM Call of Cthulu vehicle drivers.
Hope this helps.
All the best,
George.

Also, try 1/64 scale or 'S' scale railroad supplies.
