I have had these 3 fantastic figures for a while now: link Along with their 0018 – Trooper Leader, handgun, cigar in peaked fatigue cap: link However, I wanted a few more, like these: TMP link Well, on Sunday I bought the following TAG figures at Little Wars in Houston: link And, I have to say, they look perfect together. I finally have 8 figures that I can use for Stargate, Aliens and other scenarios requiring a small team. CC |

Cool stuff. Check out Eureka's SWAT line. Get 'em with the cap head option, and you can make a bunch of corporate guard types. For that purpose, they'd be great, as they're really light on kit, and the legs are not so great for modern SWAT (few pockets, trousers not tucked into boots, no kneepads). |

Wow. Does anyone know how those Eureka capped heads compare to the ones from Pig Iron? link

Personnaly speaking, the Pig Iron heads are better. I was disapointed in the Eureka Swat figs when I got to see them in the flesh (so to speak). The fig that killed it for me was this one link A weapon I wanted to have quite a few of. But oh the hand……… As usual the TAG website times out trying to look at that picture. Are they the SWAT guys in baseball caps? If so, I agree, I've mixed mine with the EM-4 figs quite happily for corporate guards. |

RE the Eureka SWAT figs, I'll be sticking with the MP5s. The shotgun and pistol variants don't do much for me. |

Yeah Ive got the eM-4 stuff to and its neat I added a cap to the pointing male rebel to use a a sgt for the squad. Ive wanted to expand the squad so thanks for the link. Robert. |

If Simon decides favorably on the Pig Iron sprue question, I will order a few head sprues and play surgeon on some of the TAG and EM-4 figures I have with helmets: TMP link CC |

I actually use the Merc blisters from Foundry for these. I am looking at making use fo the new Battlefield: Evolution figures from Mongoose Publishing as well. They are hard plastic (Not like the hero click, D&D and Star Wars figs), and painted to a more professional level than I can do or have time to do right now. I must possess those new/redone Jaffa since I missed the original release. |
