I picked up several of the First Corp jalopies at Historicon and plan to mix them in with the Eureka vehicles for Mad Max games. I am looking for weapons I can stick on them, like machine-guns and rocket launchers. The stuff I see easily available (other than the Eureka stuff, which I already have) seems to be for Matchbox-scale vehicles. I am looking for items that a close to 1:48 than 1:64. Are there any good sources out there?

Thanks,

Buck

Stan Johansen has some vehicle weapons and accessories, too.

Perhaps Ramshackle Games? Some of their stuff is 20mm, but some is – and I quote – "nominally about 1/64 scale."

Mind you, I have their 20mm car conversion pack, and I think it would be ok with a lot of 1:64 vehicles. The guns are fairly chunky and oversized.

More importantly, they sell a set of giant speakers to go on a truck. As we all know, giant speakers are an essential part of post apocalyptic road warfare.

They also sell 28mm weapons, if you really want to go big.

Quite helpfully, a lot of the photos have rulers besides the parts.

(Oh yeah, they also offer free worldwide shipping)

The Assault Group has a range of WWII and modern weapons available, though they usually come in packs with 10 of the same weapon, which is a bit problematic if you want diversity.

Thanks, all. I took a look at Company B, and they have some early machine-guns that will work. I checked out Assault Group before posting, but everything is WWII to the present. I was really looking for something more WWI or interwar. Thanks for the help.

Jedburgh:

Right. I have a bunch of the Eureka weapons on my cars. I was trying to find something just a little different for variety.

Sorry! I was thinking near future(?) Mad Max, the movie, not the 1934 Mad Maximilian alternative history.

Briiliant concept, but thus far I have resisted its siren call.
