Title: Lobo- any mini made?
Post by: Comsquare on 25 September 2010, 07:10:58 PM

Hei,

just out of interest.
Was there any mini made to represent Lobo, the MainMan, the last Czarnian?
Would like to get one ;D

Heroclix, maybe?

I believe the only Heroclix Lobo depicts him mounted on his flying motorcycle-thingie. If you enter "heroclix lobo" on eBay you may also bring up custom fan conversions of Lobo on foot.

There was one on Rob Jedi's Necromunda pages, but the site shut down.
it was a conversion based an old GW space marine Wolf Scout.

Ah man, had to bring me down like that eh? :-(
Rob has some good things to look over on that site. but fear not, he has had a BLOG rolling for some time now. Granted it doesnt have Lobo on it but well worth a look indeed. Plus, you should have it bookmarked if you dont already. :-)

Thanx for helping so far.

@ Heldrak
Will wait on ebay for a little cheaper one ;)

@ area23
I think there is also a Necromunda-Bountyhunter which could be customized into a "Lobo", if I remember right.

@ Grimmnar
Great Blog indeed, have bookmarked it  ;)

I never liked the Necromunda characters. And I would prefer a Jes Goodwin sculpt. It actually looks as if 'wolf scout sergeant 1' was inspired by Lobo . catalogue page here:

I play a lot of Necromunda and have managed to get my hands on some of the figures over the years and found that a few of them are much nicer than they ever looked in the pictures. The Scum with beer gut and plasma pistol is one of my favourite figures.

Looking at some pictures of Lobo, (I'm not overly familiar with the character) would starting with a Luke Cage (or similar figure) and doing a little sculpting be an option? I seem to remember Cage being pretty cheap at Troll and Toad.
