Hello William,

Well to start, try GZG. They make some great looking 15mm stuff. I love the UN
guys. Look very much like what the old Traveller Imperial Marines looked like.

Here is a web site:

This is their index: http://www.gtns.net/gzg/

Here is the one picture they have:

I know people said Peter Pig is not that great, but I love their Combat
robots. I think they look nice.

Stan Johansen has some cheep 15mm troops. The humans are very close to the old
Ral Partha 15mm figures. Slightly thin, but nice looking figures. He also has
a set of Space Dinos he calls Draco and a set of Civilians that could be used
as local police etc. Here is his web address:

Freikorp has a range of Sci-Fi that look a lot like the marines
from "Aliens". However these are "big" 15's and to me look more like
18mm+. Here is their website:

http://www.gtns.net/freikorp/

As for good looking vehicles, might I suggest first look at the Kamodo line of
APCs offered by DLD designs. They are available in both 25mm and 15mm. His web
site is:

Next on my list of vehicles is Brigade Models. They have some great looking
Tanks etc. Their Haifa II class Heavy GEV Tank looks very good for a hover
vehicle. Their web site is:

http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/

Last one I will burden you with is Force XXI Miniatures. Their stuff does not
look as nice as some of the others but the price is right and they paint up
nice. There web site is:

Hope that helps. Sorry if it was too long.

Daniel

I have the Irregular 15mm stuff (along with their "35mm" 25mm figures) plus
some of their "Big" 6mm SF vehicles. Like most Irregular stuff they vary from
"That's pretty good" to "It's a what?!"

And the GZG paper catalog has pictures on almost everything they make.

You can also look at my page of GZG 15mm figures. The pictures are of
unpainted figures.

Brian, didn't you have a short review of Irregular figures on your web site?
Somebody did along with several other 15mm SF figures but the file is under
"X" for Miscellaneous, I fear...

Gracias,

Glenn,

I think you may be thinking of Andy Cowell's fine work:

I'm just posting this to GZG-L, as I'm a bit twitchy posting to people
and lists of which I'm not conversant.

Okay, that's sounding right.

Understand, left a few lists because the chemistry wasn't right.

Gracias,
