What kind of selection are you looking for? GZG, with the new releases, has a
pretty good selection of 15mm figures. What exactly are you looking for?

Ok we're in the midst of building some armies up here and since Brian Burger
al ready has a 15mm army and it does look betting on the table we're all
planning to go 15mm t oo. I've spent a few ays trying to find a good selection
of 15mm infantry and so far I haven't found all that much. GZG and Brigade
have some and Peter Pig sorta has some. But I haven't fo und the selection I
was hoping for. Can you guys point me to some more manufacturers of
 15mm Sci
Fi infantry?

Jaime, I could have saved you an email if you'd called first!

Go to my SG2 Figures page, at <http://warbard.iwarp.com/sg2figures.html>
and scroll down to the bottom - I've got listings of every in-production
SF 15mm figures that I know of!

And if anyone knows anything that is more up-to-date than my
information, please do contact me.

We don't actually have any 15mm figures - just the embryonic start of a
range of 15mm vehicles.

If you're interested, Old Glory has a pretty extensive range of 15mm WWII
figs - you could use these as all kinds of things in a sci-fi setting:
lower tech militia, mercenaries, colonial infantry, etcetc.

Good prices, excellent selection. In Canada, you can reach John Jennings
(the Canadian distributor) at 416-766-7690 or at oldglory@interlog.com
I don't know what the US contact info for them is (don't have the catalogue
handy) and I know they're available in the UK too.

He doesn't have a web site up and running yet, but that's supposed to be
happening "soon"...

My comments have been added between Rick's notes.

Rick, may I add parts of your comments to my 15mm SF review section?

The not-Aliens aliens are supposed to be better than the human figures
in this line. Being aliens, exact scale and proportion is less important, I
guess.

The line troops seem very science-fantasy; this company does have the
only
SF 15mm police, starship crew, and other non-military figures.

(At least until we badger Jon in to doing 15mm versions of his 25mm Street
Level lines!)

Great figures - lots of companies produced figures with Trav licenses, I
think, and many of them are very nice figures indeed. Very very out of
production, however.

These old HG figs weren't supposed to be 15mm. They're HO (1/87th), so
they are supposed to be bigger than the usual 15mm figures. (15mm works
out to something around 1/100th, I think)

> Tactical Command Games

These really are big 15mm, then. Too bad about the quality, though.

Thanks for the quick reviews!
