Hot Fuzz miniatures from Hasslefree

[traveller]

My son is pushing me to prepare a skirmish game based on the final fight in the movie "Hot Fuzz". Can anyone advice if the Hasslefree figures are same size as other modern minis from Foundry, TAG, Copplestone + any others I haven´t thought of? Grateful for any help

I have painted these figures-they were a commission though, so I can't check sizes now. I would say they were an exact match in size with my TAG and EM4 troops, but a little smaller than the new Copplestone stuff and not as bulky.

Thye mix just fine with Foundry, and are just slightly smaller than Copplestone i if you'd like, I can try to get some photos...

Thanks for your comments which sounds reassuring. I have some of the other Hasslefree female figures and I find them rather slim and smallish compared to the other companies mentioned. No need for photos I trust your judgement.
Maybe you can recommend some other miniatures that could be suitable opponents to the two cops?

What kind of opponents are you looking for? I am not familiar with Hot Fuzz, so I am lost there...

Hasslefree usually does seem smaller than the majority of other figures, but that is because Kev tends to sculpt his figures to a more realistic proportion than other companies. However, when you take into account that people are all different sizes, they work just fine together. I have a mix of figures I used for a Superhero RPG campaign that were a mix of Hasslefree, Heroclix, Superfigs, Reaper, and Foundry, as well as the occasional Games Workshop, and they mixed well enough. Of course, I am not as furious of a scale monkey as some.

Well, to game the final showdown of the movie I need elderly men and women armed with handguns, shotguns and an occassional bren gun (!). They might not be so easy to find but I have to try...

[Darkoath]

I think some of the 28mm resistance ww2 fighters from Artizan and Bolt Action might fight the bill very nicely...

And perhaps some of the IRA from Musketeer in 28mm... I think some of those are also in civilian dress and carrying shotguns.

Have you seen the ones Hasslefree does have?

Hasslefree miniatures are a lot smaller than Copplestone. Though honestly I've always preferred looks over heights.

For the bren-toting lady, all I could suggest is a partisan painted accordingly. Very few old men and women armed to the teeth in miniature form.

Thanks for all your help!

The forces are starting to gather! I will post a photo once they are ready to do battle!
