Does anyone make arrogant 3rd world dictators, General of course, with tons of medals and sunglasses?

I normally ask for 25/28mm, but I am edging more and more into AK-47 type 5mm gaming. Being silly and a flames of war player will do that. grin

I assume you mean 15mm gaming?

John the OFM07 Aug 2012 8:59 a.m. PST

Oh. right. I meant that I would like to see both.

For 15mm, I'd look at Peter Pig. They make a dictator figure, but I don't know what it looks like. I imagine it would be as you want (at least it should be), but can't state so with any certainty.

Here is the dictator character pack.

I don't know about 15mm, but in 28mm there are several. None that I found wearing sunglasses, though.

Okay, the last guy doesn't have a chest full of medals, but I think the monkey offsets that lack.

John the OFM07 Aug 2012 9:26 a.m. PST

Maybe his medals have monkey poo all over them…

Good examples. Keep them coming!

John…I use the Peter Pig dictator for His Excellency, President-For-Life P'hat Daddee B'wonah…

Here's what he looks like painted up: link

I use the same figure for the general in chief of Yerbouti!

President Shakerattl'n'roll is also from Peter Pig. He's the religious guy.

No mention, no medals. This guy's feeling left out. He's starting to feel ronery, so ronery…
