We are used to bringing you the best of 28mm Modern figures from our sculptor Kosta Heristanidis. Now, we are bringing you the best of 15mm Modern figures, too.
With research by Kosta, and design and sculpting by Alan Marsh, we feel that these are the finest 15mm figures available for 21st Century conflicts.
This new range of current Russians and Chechens was brought to fruition through the 300 Club. While Kosta Heristanidis has continued work on his many 28mm Modern projects, he managed to spare enough time to do all the research for this new range.
Along with the expected AK-74s, RPG-7s and RPG-18s being used in multiple poses, we have also made complete heavy weapon back-up in the form of 12.7mm HMGs, 82mm mortars, and automatic grenade launchers. Kosta also researched the MVD maska helmet and its metal visor, that is often used for operations inside Russia. From an Australian point of view, this gives the wearer a "Ned Kelly" look! It would also not be out of place on a sci-fi figure, and I recommend them to 15mm sci-fi players!
Alan Marsh has brought his skills in the smaller scales to bear on this project, and the results are extraordinary. The detail on these smaller figures would not be out of place on many 28mm figures.
We see these figures as the start of an on-going range of 15mm late 20th and early 21st Century models. We have many suggestions in the 300 Club for lines that our customers would like to see. When any of the current listings reaches 600 pre-ordered figures, from at least ten customers, we will push them into production. The current closest item is current Australians. If you haven't signed up for these yet, please do and help push them across the line.
