Does anyone know where I can source a 28mm kid looking at a smartphone?
The idea is that, on my next big model, some giant horrible thing spewing destruction and horror (TBD), there'll be a kid on the base ignoring it in favor of collecting likes on facebook.

I cannot think of any at the moment, though Hasslefree makes this young gentleman with what looks like a walkie-talkie in his hand:

Those are not direct links (I couldn't get on either).

Go to Recreational Conflict as above, look for LEAD BONES on the left.
Then 28mm SINGLE CIVILIANS.
Civ-07 is about one page down.

Thank you. What I'm looking for is someone starting at their phone, like a millennial, oblivious to the horror around them.

Depending upon your figures, you could use the Star Trek Away Team Heroclix figs, since some of the original series crew look to be holding items like "cellphones", or other communications/data devices.

$1.00 USD each on eBay, plus a nominal shipping charge.

If you don't like the full-sized, adult, human figs, you could always perform major surgery and graft an arm or hand onto a smaller child's figure.

That's a very workable idea. Thank you!
