Howdy Fellers,
Does anyone know where to buy WWI 15mm Pioneers or Engineers? I'm looking for figures with picks and shovels as well as bangalores and detonators. Seeking British troops primarily, but a lead on some German, French, Australian, etc. would be helpful also. WWII figures of this sort might work as well.
Thanks a bunch!

Peter Pig?

Yes. Peter Pig has engineers. There are also other packs that can be useful flamethrowers, anti-tank teams, mechanics and others.

Thanks guys, I'll check 'em out!

I had to buy QRF American Civil War engineers and use head swaps from Peter Pig. Here are the French engineers for example:

Here are the original figures:

WOW Robert, those look great! I've done a few head swaps and found they can be tricky (and dangerous!).
It's occurred to me that some Japanese WWII miniatures can make semi-convincing Brits if they're equipped with helmet covers and puttees and then painted appropriately.
