I'm looking for Flash, Dale, Ming, and company. The real challenge, beside the characters, is Hawkmen. Also, soldiers on skis or snowmobiles for Frigia. |

link These are on the small side of 1/72. They might fit in with your 15mm plans depending on how tall your 15mm figures are. |

Say no more: link Their rocket-cycle guys look pretty retro, too: link |

Not sure who has them now but the old "peter pig" sci/fi figures would work too, might be an idea to E-mail them and see who bought them off of them. Cheers Roger. |

Thanks Beast. Awesome!
Those alpines look good too! |

I have the Hawkmen from the Scene. They are fantastic. They tell me they will be releasing the flying Hawkmen soon. I use the East Riding Miniature Vampire as Ming.
He's the standing figure without shield here:
linkWith a Xin Bodyguard (pose 2) from the Ion Age
link
link I also have a couple of 12mm tall "psychics" in attendance with him from Alternative Armies
link
I tried to paint mine a very bright white with chrome helmets.
I also use Iwken and other Imperial from AA as Ming's minions.
Also look at al Partha's 1879 range either the Mushkenites
link
or Ardites
link
or Zombies with railguns or swords. Lionmen I used the Alternative Armies Centalons.
link The "Galacteers" unit I have are the Light Adventures with blaster from AA
link
Dale Flash and Zarkoff are proving to be still not quite right in the ones I've looked at. If I knew how to post pictures, I'd put up some photos of my figures. Happily.
I love the Buster Crab serials since I was 12 in '81 and the cartoon before that. |

Awesome options! I had no clue about these. I would love to see your army, Deflatemouse.. Thanks again. |

A lot of them have still to be finished as the main stars are missing, but I can always have a battle without them.
Also the Quiet on the Martian Front Heavy US Armoured infantry can be used as Ming's Robots.

Wasn't Hydra hinting it might go with some 15's? A few Valkeeri would do for Ming's petulant daughter. Doug |

Hydra in 15mm would be perfect. I haven't heard that but I know they ARE doing 10mm versions of their Retro Raygun figures for Atomic Tank.
Alternative Armies do a 15mm retro Sci-fi figures male and female
link link RAFM also have a single figure which is very retro-suitable from their Space Vixens.

Beast – I asked Hydra that a while ago and they said no. But, that was before their Atomic Tank project. If they ever ported their RRG minis to 15mm I'd go broke, so it's probably the best for me…. :-( |
