Though I will use him in a frontier SF context, I'm also crossposting on the Old West and Victorian boards, just in case you have come across such a figure there. Anyway, Badger (played by actor Mark Sheppard) always wears that bowler(?) hat of his and a vest. He reminds me a bit of a pretentious little leprechaun* in dark clothes. He never does any fighting himself, but he's always well guarded by his goons. 1) If someone knows of a good candidate for him in 15mm, please let me know which manufacturer/range has that figure. 2) However, if you happen already have such a figure in your own stack of lead, and are willing to part with it, please let me know too. Thanks so much. Dan * I guess that means that Blue Moon's 18mm Figures might be a bit too tall. The "Mal" that I have is about 18mm tall (Splintered Light's SF crew), and Badger should definitely be shorter than Mal. YouTube link YouTube link YouTube link YouTube link link

"I know him. And I think he's a psychotic lowlife." "And I think that's an insult to the psychotic lowlife community." "Sad little king on a sad little hill." Best recurring character on the show (well, after Saffron/Bridget/Yolanda). That one on the left is a pretty close match. You gonna put something in that upraised hand?I'm also wondering if some Victorian/Edwardian Brits might provide a good match, too, as well as pulp gangster/villains/henchmen lines. |

>(well, after Saffron/Bridget/Yolanda) that's Yo-Saf-Bridge |

Saber6 Perhaps if the "powerfully ugly creature" (missus) was 18mm. :) Dan link link
