I'm developing a Conan the Barbarian 28mm scenario and one of the stages is the "orgy" scene from the movie, so I need seated, lounging or laying male figures without weapons or armor. I've found a fair amount of female figures, but zero males. Any ideas?

This might be thinking outside the box a bit, but consider the Perry Sultan's Court

Or Eureka Miniatures Indian Bazaar (although these would be a bit more of a stretch)

I think some details, is the "orgy" scene in a Hyborian nation or more like Koth, Turan, Hyrkania, Stygia? Is the cult like the serpent cult in the movie?

I lurk the Perry website super hard, and I don't remember the "Sultan's Court" diorama.

I'd try Hasslefree, I think they have a few

RAFM Has a armourless and weoaponless nobleman type in plain clothing lounging on a big throne( he is a fully separate piece) that may be exactly what you are looking for. And he looks a bit bored. :)

Mithril has some great ones. MS584 and MS596

Sorry for the late reply, but though I can create a new topic on day one of my membership, I can't reply to topics, including my own, for three days!

Anyway, over the weekend I thought of using casualties, so I ordered a few that I think might fit the bill, but I won't know for sure until I receive them and I'm still looking for a few more, regardless.

willthepiper, for that price, I could use a few of those figs; thanks!

Crazyivanov, I don't think there are enough options to worry about that level of detail. Yes, I'm looking to mimic the movie as much as I can (afford).

Here's a link to the set. It's called Saljuq Emir's Court: link

willthepiper, after thinking about it over the weekend, I realized that although I want some lounging men for display purposes, some of them will be getting up to fight, so maybe I'll just lay a few dudes down, maybe some drinking dudes.

Redroom, that's where I found most of my females so far, but thanks!

Der Krieg Geist, I couldn't find it. Got a link or name?

Shadyt, those are good ones, but 35 for a 2-fig set is a little steep for me. I have many figs to buy!

Thanks to all of those who responded. I'll post what I ended up using when I figure it out. Meanwhile, methinks I've found a market need.

Glad to be of assistance!

Reaper Miniatures has a search feature that helps to find useful figures from among their extensive collection. Searching for terms like 'seated' and 'throne' got me these:

And of course someone has to provide the beer:

So, in summation, I was looking for unarmored people, preferably in togas or otherwise scantily-clad, that are sitting, laying down or otherwise "lounging about". Here's what I ended up with:

• Sacrificial Eddy • Ainsty Castings • link

• Auxiliaries Casualties • Black Tree Designs • link

• Celtic Casualties • Black Tree Designs • link

• 32FDWFS3 (3 seated, naked females) • Bronze Age Minis • link

• Senet Game and Players • Dark Fable Miniatures • link

• Temple of Set Column of Woe (for the chained-up chick) • Dark Fable Miniatures • link

• The Harem • Fenryll • link

• Claudius • Gorgon Studios • link

• Acenith, Almira, Harem Dancer (b) & Harem Girl • Hasselfree Miniatures • link

• Egyptian Casualties • Wargames Foundry • link

• Legionaires in Camp • Wargames Foundry • link

• Roman Nobles And Ladies • Wargames Foundry • link

Also, I'm using Narg the torturer (Hasselfree) for the "cannibal soup" guy.

I'll return with sizing info (these range from 25mm-32mm) and post pic links when I get things a little further along.
