I have a custom army coming together in 28mm and find myself in need of some man-portable anti-materiel rocket launchers.

Preferably in Australia. I don't want to pay over fifty backs to equip 5 guys.

Check out the toy section in your local dollar store. There are usually accessory packs of equipment for action figures. If you find something suitable, then it's just an easy figure conversion away… ;-)

Why would action figure weapons suit 28-32mm figures? Most of them are really too big for the action figures.

Not all action figures are large, and dollar stores usually carry the smaller ones, so it's worth a look. Also, you wanted cheap… ;-)

So there are 28mm action figures out there? Not counting the Lightyear small vehicle sets (the crew figures never have any weapons there anyway).

There are the megablox Halo troopers… they are about 40mm but have weapons that could be converted to fit smaller scales as rocket launchers…

There was also the game box for robogear from Airfix that had 35mm troops with some rocket launchers…

The Stargrave sets have arms with AT launchers attached can get separate sprues on E Bay.
