Title: 28mm Landmate models?
Post by: dijit on 11 September 2009, 12:10:35 PM

Does anyone know who does 28mm Landmate type mecha, like those from Appleseed or Ghost on the Shell?

Another option are the new 'Warmachine Retribution' models. The big warjacks have a bit of a Landmate look and can easily be converted (especially the big plastic warjack):

I think you may choose some inifinity models :

Oh yeah, maybe not superslick, but a great (pun intended) model nonetheless: (Also have a spare one of these if you are interested)

And last option are the G.U.A.R.D. from Monsterpocalypse. The big Monsters look quite interesting and can be used as big suits. You can find loads of them on ebay. Two examples:

You may have also some figures there.

Good call! Especially if you consider the following:

Quote from: DP9

While we where away last weekend A.D. Publishing released thier first licensed Gear Krieg ebook entitled World at War: Gear Krieg for use with the Battlefield Evolution game system. To support the release we are doing a 20% off Sale on the DP9 Online Store for all Gear Krieg products (Books and Miniatures) for the next month from today to September 21st, 2009. This way new players can save a bit building thier miniature armies and checking out some of the back ground matterial from the books already published using our Silhouette game system.

Note that the current run of Heavy Gear models is in 1/144th scale (or something like that) and therefore rather diminutive compared to 28mm figures. Might be suitable for 20 and 15mm, though.

There´s also the nice CLAWS in the Victory Force "JC Figures" line of miniatures:

Rather complex assembly, but very nice sculpting and casting.

Thanks for all the ideas, I'd looked at some of the infinity stuff (who can't like their minis?) but there were a couple of problems I had, one was the price, the second was that I had difficulty seeing a fully grown man in most of their TAGs (I know thats not the idea of a TAG, but it'd be nice), though I hadn't seen the last one 'Lizard', it also a shame that the DP9 are so small, as they'd be great. Victory Force's 'Claws' looks great and I think I'll run with that one.
Thanks again!
