Apparently, the AR-15/M-16 can be fired underwater (don't try this at home), but the range of the bullet is only 4 feet, before it loses its power.
The rifle REALLY doesn't like that. Water in the action can cause a catastrophic failure. What the 'gun culture' calls a 'kaboom'.

Don't forget the pantomime horse!

Would be very interested in such a line.

Sixteen poses ordered today!

Four super spies
Six arch villains and chief henchpersons
Six poses of henchmen with SMGs

If the range is well-received I'll certainly make more….

republic of tolworth30 Apr 2013 1:38 a.m. PST

Yay!!!!!!

Now I have to try a hold off other 'make do' purchases and hang on for these…

deflatermouse30 Apr 2013 2:27 a.m. PST

Oh Yeah, Ba-bee!

malleman30 Apr 2013 8:36 p.m. PST

Will some of the poses be the super spy's hot girls, or will those come later?

Mako1130 Apr 2013 8:46 p.m. PST

Excellent!

I hope at least one is a hot, female superspy, or at least a spy groupie. Miniskirts are required equipment for them.

Will some of the poses be the super spy's hot girls, or will those come later?

Super spies include Scotsman in suit, very dapper man in bowler hat with umbrella, woman in vertical-striped bodysuit, and girl in minidress.

I will add my voice to the chorus. I've already purchased some figures from Khurasan for 7TV; if these are available I'll get them too.

Maybe you can make an Aston Martin DB5 as well.

RTJEBADIA01 May 2013 5:48 p.m. PST

Any thought on including not-Archer characters?

khurasanminiatures01 May 2013 6:12 p.m. PST

What are those?

malleman01 May 2013 6:17 p.m. PST

woman in vertical-striped bodysuit, and girl in minidress

I am in for a set. I need some more Kirk babes!

WarrenAbox01 May 2013 7:35 p.m. PST

Spitballing here – those grav monitor crew-women might make a decent crew of femme-fatale-bots. I can see a lot of overlap between those and other parts of your range.

Mako1101 May 2013 9:59 p.m. PST

Ah yes, we could definitely use some Archer figs.

They are a cartoon of a top secret (well, almost top secret), private spy and security agency, on FX.

Good storylines, and funny characters, for a 30 minute show.

khurasanminiatures01 May 2013 10:19 p.m. PST

Hi Rob, not 60s spi-fi as far as I know so no plans to do it. But as I tell everyone with hopes of seeing models made, for $100 USD a pose I can get them made for you, and you get 20 of each pose.

(The $100 USD is just the sculpting cost, I cover mouldmaking, etc.)

commanderroj02 May 2013 3:13 a.m. PST

Definitely armed and unarmed scuba divers (scuba tanks and rebreathers), as well as free divers (without tanks).

Diver propulsion vehicles, minisubs, and several to carry nuke bombs too (wish the Goblintooth minis were still available – resurrecting them, if anyone has the ability to contact the owner for the masters and molds of these might be the best way to go, quickly, assuming they are still viable). They had lots of different packs, and diver vehicles, apparently.

I've only seen a few diver packs, but they were quite nice.

Bikini clad women are a must, for the 007 and Flint movies (In Like Flint, and Our Man Flint), plus others.

A Naomi figure, if you please, in a bikini, for a boat driver.

Some astronauts in armed, manned maneuvering units would be nice too, instead of just floating in space (GZG does some free floating guys). We need those for Moonraker, and some of the other space movies.

Definitely some Live and Let Die figs, high-speed boats for the waterway chases, poh-leese, etc. Can't recall the sheriff's name – perhaps W.T. Buford, and/or something like that. He was a classic, as was his "cousin". Too funny.

i absolutely agree. Especially the divers, although i have already bought some 20mm ones for just this purpose and bought a fair bit of stuff from Rebel for use in 15mm SpyFi.

A good way to go for divers (if possible) would be to make the legs and uppre body separate for multiple poses. Im desperate for underwater scooters and mini subs.

republic of tolworth14 May 2013 10:46 a.m. PST

Well with the first two on show for this, I feel that the 7TV in 15mm is very much GO! Can,t wait to see what else is lined up. I'm busy building my evil lair right now.

Kev134014 May 2013 12:33 p.m. PST

The bar is set high with the first two sculpts! Can't wait to see more, these are a definite must have range, many applications.

I must add my interest in UFO / Capt Scarlet inspired 15mm minis. Also 70's shows ….

Cheers,

Kev

Mako1114 May 2013 1:14 p.m. PST

Good idea on the upper and lower body parts for the scuba divers.

A separate, main arm would also permit variable weapons too, e.g. various types of spearguns, underwater assault rifles, knives, etc.

The girls in form-fitting clothing, and/or miniskirts will be useful for UFO as well.

deflatermouse14 May 2013 3:15 p.m. PST

Does anyone know of a gyrocopter suitable in this scale?

khurasanminiatures15 May 2013 9:00 a.m. PST

… exciting update -- very pleased to report that Tom Meier has agreed to make the models for John Surety, the suave Scottish MI-6 agent, and his sometime girlfriend Nectar Dryver. Stay tuned for details!

Kev134015 May 2013 12:58 p.m. PST

Fantastic! Don't keep us waiting too long Jon :-)

Cheers,

Kev

My dear man, there are some things that just aren't done. Such as drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That's just as bad as making customers wait.
