Some time ago I've seen a very nice 28 mm vulture figure, either here in one of the topics, or as a link to one of the manufacturers. Can't find it now, so would be glad if anybody could help ...

Thanks,

Amazon makes one:

If there are other ones, I'd gladly know about them too. Flying ones would be particularly nice.

Crocodile games might have something in their Aegyptus range.

Otherwise I think Steve Barber models have (had) some.

On eBay, there is a seller that goes by jdlauck. He sells the mega miniatures line. There is an extensive animal line represented.

http://www.megaminis.com/MEGA/PDF/MegaMinis-ANIMALScatalog.pdf go to page 5 of this pdf.

eBay item 140152291649 (vulture waiting) or
eBay item 140152291994 (vulture feeding) and each figure cost US$1.00

Hope this helps and good luck

Ahhh, just remembered: it was this fantastic thing of a vulture I was looking for: :love:

But if there are other minis, just keep on posting ...

Thanks to everybody so far!

There is a pack of "birds of Prey" from Mega Minis that gives about 6 different birds (12 pieces) IIRC for $USD 7.50, about to undercoat mine for African scenarios.

The Wyrd miniatures one is cool. GW make a plastic vulture on their Giant sprue - if you know any Warhammer players you might be able to blag their spares

The advantage of the plastic one is that it looks a bit smaller than the Wyrd one, so might be a better scale for wild west.

DeeZee miniatures do pack of vultures. Available from Wargames Illustrated's website (scroll down to see 'em):

http://www.wargamesillustrated.net/shop.asp

I picked a pack up a while back. Five in a pack for £4.50, quite nice, and come with seperate heads so you can get some variety to the poses, although all come with wings half outstretched.

Not painted any yet though. :oops:

Irregular miniatures has one, too.

Seems like Reaper had one in one of their familiar packs, I think I have one somewhere, and it is pretty darn good looking.

GW also have a nice one on the Tomb Kings Catapult that can be got loose from the ebay parts sellers.

I did a quick job on the Mega Minis vultures for use as objective markers etc.

They are very cheap and the service from Mega Minis is always great. Only two sculpts available though.
