Anyone seen plastic toy James Bond and his heroines? I'm working on a cold war green v. tan army man conflict and they will need a super spy to tip the balance away from Tan occasionally… And villains, and other suitable characters would be welcome! Thanks in advance for any leads! |

I think Gilbert made a small Bond range in 54mm back in the 60's, they pop up on eBay, you could use the old Scalextric hard plastic pit crew figures for conversion or look for larger model rail figures.
If you can find some Marx Untouchables figures there were a couple that would make a good Bond. |

The Kitbash games kickstarter has some 1/35th pulp figures in it which might work as villains… link |

Not sure if these are still available, but I bought these from a one man operation called brand toys. They are slim, but well detailed. link edit: lol that was like an instantaneous post…great minds think alike I guess. |

The hard plastic 1/32 construction figures (bagged like army men) resurface occasionally. They paint up nicely as minions for an evil villan. |

@dBerczerk thanks, the M0F0S look like they'll work out. I contacted the seller about a smaller auction as I didn't want 20 of them, which was 4 sets. Instead, he put up a set of two for half the price [half shipping also]. I figure I will trade the other 5 for someone else's group of interesting character figs. Net price with shipping is $1.50 USD a fig, which is quite good for such unique sculpts! |

that was 2 sets of 5 for $15 USD instead of 4 sets of 5 for $30. USD This leaves me with one extra set of 5. I hope that makes sense now! |

is getting a lot of mileage from repurposed pre-painted fantasy figs.
