Hi guys I'm hoping someone out there has seen what I'm looking for… I'm after a 28mm guy in either skintight one piece body stocking type uniform or naked (can paint it on), not too muscular, athletic rather than bodybuilder type unarmed if possible and springing or rushing forward but not too crouched over. I've looked at all the usual suspects (Reaper,Superfigs,Bronze age,Crossover etc..) and can't see exactly what I'm after. Something like the "Buster Gordy" figure Hydra did would but work but I need two (for reasons will reveal later). So anyone seen what I'm looking for? Thanks in advance, Roger. (I've just re-read my description of what I'm after an it looks like a entry on a gay dating site, sorry!) |

Have browsed through the Heroclix ranges? |

Check around the middle of the page. Only thing is he has the Spiderman type mask going. But that could probably be modified. link |

There is this guy from the Dreadball range: link There is also a whole team of them: link Not quite just a skintight body suit but close. |

I'm with Chris Palmer. Adaptoid and Humanoid are good ones to start with, especially if you are going to do a head swap. Vance Astro/American Agent too … generic, athletic, but not too muscular over-the-top. |

can you provide a image from a comic to give us a clue ? |

I think "Cricket" has cracked it, he's just about perfect,should have said that his head didn't matter as it will be re-worked on one and replaced on the other. I did check out heroclix's but as I want to do some major converion on them I'd prefer a good solid metal base to start with. I'd like to get a blog going on this project but as I am to computers what elephants are to glassblowing that may never happen (my better half does all the webstuff). Many thanks again for all your help I knew you lot would be able to point me in the right direction. Roger. |

Looks like you found your fig but if for some reason it doesn't work try Heroclix for Aquaman, Quicksilver, Namor/Sub Mariner or the flash. |
