top row, 2nd from the right and the 7 nearly identical ones below it, appear to be from MechWarrior Dark Age w/o the clix bases; 3rd from the right-top looks like a converted/modded version of the 2nd-right-top model. not sure about the rest, some need a larger, more clear image.

The hulls of many of the hover tanks definitely look like QT Models 6mm sci-fi to me, I've got a couple, but I think they've been converted. But turrets don't look right to me. The two APCs in the bottom left corner look like GZG (but I'm probably well wrong).

I can't find any pictures of miniatures for Combat 3000.

You may have something there… Maybe not all, but several do look like QT models from what I've found.

Some of those look modified. I don't really recognize many of them. The 2 tan ACV APCs I think are OOP from Fortress.

Moe the Great13 Jun 2016 7:02 p.m. PST

Fortress the game?

No there was an old company called Fortress Minis. Scroll down link and you can see them on one of the posts.

For pictures and a complete (As of 1979 ) catalogue of the QT Starforce 300 Range, there's this link to Maksim-Smelchak's old blog – link

Pretty sure the bulk of those are Moccasin Tank variants.

Fortress Figures made the bottom-left two APCs.

The bulk of those squarish ones look like ones that were sold by a TMPer around 10 years ago. He actually sold two-part smush molds for each of four or five 6mm vehicles. Once you bought the mold, you could make as many as you wanted. I wish I could remember who that was, but for the life of me, I can't think of it. Something Castings, IIRC.

They turned out being Resin castings for the most part. (Except the Mechwarrior ones that were removed from the bases)

Most of the castings were really bad. It also didn't help that NoblekKnight shoved them all into one baggy. The will make some good laser fodder in my games.

If they were bad casts its likely that they were from home made molds. If anyone remembers who sold them id kill for some!
Great little army.

kozak198018 Jun 2016 2:05 a.m. PST

Jut re-read that it was ten years ago.
Probably should giv up but those tanks ae fun.

kozak198018 Jun 2016 6:01 a.m. PST

Moe the great any chance of some better pictures?
These look great for low tech forces and a good place to start modelling.

Moe the Great20 Jun 2016 12:00 p.m. PST

I will see what I can do. If you want some let me know. I"m happy to share.

kozak198020 Jun 2016 2:35 p.m. PST

That would be above and beyond moe!
Just want to build something similar so if you could part with 1 or 2 and don't mind posting to Australia. Let me know.
Otherwise photos will be fine.

Moe the Great22 Jun 2016 7:09 a.m. PST

No problem, send me your email and we can work out details.
