Okay I am considering OGAM. I wanted to see what options are out there for 28mm wargaming. I expect most of these figures to to be taller so size isn't really important to me. I am open to any of the clip or toy soldiers. Even some options from 40mm and 56mm ranges. Here is a brief list of who I know produces. Please add Relic miniatures Wargames foundry Northstar Hasslefree Crocodile games Who else? Thanks |

Reaper has many figures that could be used including giants, Valkyries, Thor, Heracles and a ton of Egyptian themed stuff. |

Black Tree Designs has some good creatures and mythical beasts, plus fantasy Saracens which have been released has a separate download. Also, I use 54mm plastic Vikings as my Norse god characters. |

Bronze Age Miniatures makes some Norse and Greek figures. |

I wouldn't dismiss 15mm for the human size, as you can then draw on 28mm for gods and such. |

SHQ do a full set of Greek gods and some Norse and Roman ones. They were sculpted by Jim Bowen and the ones I have are really nice. |

For 54mm BMC/Billy Boy carries Greeks: link link Even the "Romans" in this line look Greekish. You can get these at Hobby Lobby more often than not and use the discount coupon. There are Egyptian Undead: link ToysRus sells these in a larger set on the isle with the toy guns and such. Papo has an entire line of 90mm Beastmen for them to battle
including a Minotaur: link You can use action figures from Harryhausen's works, etc. Just Google Mythology Action figure. You will find stuff like this:
Awhile back there were "Pirate" and "Mythology" action figures at Target. They still show up on Ebay: auction The Cyclops is great but way overpriced here: link And these 54mm Prepaints are $20 USD but worth looking at: auction I bet the latter is sold elsewhere at a cheaper price. |

Not being much of a historical buff, I can't think of too many offhand, but any company that has an ancient, dark age, or Asian range in 25 or 28mm is going to be a good source for "mortals". -Old Glory, and Black tree are great bargain sources. -Wargames Factory and Warlord have plastic ranges that could be useful for ancients and vikings. -Essex has a classic look that a lot of folks like -Perry makes excellent figures in plastic and metal -I don't recall the company, but the Clan War series of miniatures have a lot of possibilities. etc, etc. Some of the above have good figures for Heroes and Gods. |
