I have a Brigade Models fleet & a GZG fleet. I would like to get some Klingon style ships that fit in with these. Any suggestions as to which brand would work well? |

I think most any would do for size, as the BM and GZG are fairly neutral. I tend to list ADB, Studio Bergstrom, and a list of Shapeways folk for possibles. Studio Bergstrom (TMP handle:Stummer) has some that are fairly small of the 'cheap-and-chearful' as well as some stunning 'just post TOS' and some futuristic (for TOS on) worth a look, as well. All still say 'Klingonese' to me. Irregular out of the UK have some that say ridge-head if you squint rightly. In spite of my first statement, I'd find Wizkids/NECA Attack Wing mostly a bit large, but mentioned trying for completeness. Doug |

Stumer, Looks like ya found 'your' source for some very close 'proxy's'. 1/3125 is a 'bit' larger than ADB, but I don't think it would be all that noticeable. I really like S.B.'s, '1" space ship" line and it seems to keep evolving adding more options. I'd say since all are only 1", the F.E.D. 'frigate' and the Sing-on star ship would make a good one-on-one 'cruiser game. And if you enjoy conversion, while pewter's not the best to work with, a little cutting, filing and a bit of brass rod to extend the boom. 'viola' ya got a pretty good Heavy BC or even (canabalize one) you have a tri engine Dreadnought. Ive done that w/ some of my own old est 1/7000 D7's. turned out pretty good I think. |

Can't recommend Studio Bergstrom enough. Miniatures and customer service are truly outstanding. Minis have very, very little flash on them and are a joy to put together and paint. Dr Tachyon |

Thanks *Oldgrumbler I know RavenStar sold off their BSG line some time ago, but I am so glad I just ck'd that link. 'RavenStar' IF you read this 'PLEASE don't tease'. I saw the category for "Monsters, Kaiju and Jaegers". Dear we hope your actually planning on a Pacific Rim line? IIRC, just from the first film, game designers had, was it3 or 5 versions of Jaegers to build from. I seem to recall clix even getting in on that as well. |
