Pendraken Figures is a small miniatures company in the UK who produces
starship miniatures as their 'Space Dreadnought 3000' line. Full
fleets of miniatures are available for 5 different races/empires plus
merchants. Ships range from Fighters and Patrol Ships to Super Dreadnoughts
and the 2 piece Base Ships. These starship miniatures are of comparable size
to most other ranges.

Pendraken also produces a line of 10mm sci-fi figures influenced by
the Aliens movies along with some vehicles. Some sets of alien lizardmen and
lizardmen cavalry have just been released. In addition
to these sci-fi lines, Pendraken produces many other lines of 10mm
figures that are not pictured: fantasy, historical, WWII, modern,
along with WWII and modern armor and 1/3000 Napoleonic Ships.

You can not order from this page since this page is currently on an.edu server
but that may change in the future. Contact information for Pendraken is given
so you can get a hold of them directly. The purpose of this page is to give
some exposure to a line of spaceship miniatures that most people outside the
UK have never heard of let alone seen. Questions and comments about the page
and the miniatures are welcome.

This webpage is a product of the M Collective, a group of guys who met through
the FTGZG mailing list and decided that they could do something about getting
pictures of obscure spaceship miniatures on the web. Jim Bell handled the
contact with Pendraken Dean Gundberg got all the pictures taken Mike
Miserendino scanned in the pictures and did the graphics

Mathrew,

Good work. I've already updated my web page, "Tom's Spaceship
Miniature/Game Lists" with your info on the length of these figures.
Would you let me copy some of your pictures to add to my site? I'd like to use
the ones that show the whole fleet for each race. I will
credit the M-Collective and if you like include a link to your page.

Enjoy,

Hmm... 10mm. Anyone know of any *20* mm SF lines out there, other than
Heavy Gear?  Or, for that matter, 20 mm/HO scale SF model kits for tanks
& the like?  I've found HO-scale WW II tank kits, and so forth, but
they're not quite what I'm looking for....

Thanks,

For anyone interested in doing such currency conversions, I use this site:

I find it very useful for such stuff!

The easiest way is to pay by credit card. Pendraken does accept them and then
they charge actual shipping costs instead of a flat 30% of the order (this is
stated in the catalog information on the Pendraken page).

If that is not an option, you would have to get a money order or something
similar made out in pounds sterling and then mail that to them. I haven't had
to do this so I'd suggest you ask a local bank or post office. The

current exchange rate is 1 US Dollar to 1.65 British Pounds.
