I have a pretty good knowledge of the various ranges of figures out there, however recently realized that I have no idea if anyone makes space suited figures ( armed or unarmed ) in the Greatest Scale ever :) ( Yes, I noticed my misspelling too, just too late. Also, I should have added Cosmonaut and Taikonaut as well )

Apart from Powered armor and full body armor, does anyone make such items? I'm thinking bulky moon suits, EVA suits for spacecraft, even thinner "slicksuits" for low/zero atmospheres and other hostile conditions. With or without weapons, for preference. Any suggestions?

Did you check Shapeways ? The Best I found there is 1:144 … link Too big I'd think …

Darkest star has some good figures that could pass as "slim" suits IMHO.

None yet, but I'm putting them on my (way too long) to-do list.

@Legion 4, I was surprised to learn that despite the 1/300th Man In Space kit being popular for aftermarket parts on Shapeways, astronauts for that which would have been useful simply haven't been done. :(

@Logain, good point, and yes, they would work. Thank you! :)

@Irrational Designs – That is as per usual, something to look forward to from you! :)

Best of luck with your search. There are a number of other scale Astronauts on Shapeways. That would work if they were only made in 1/300 …
