Title: 15 MM Female Figures for Colonial Adventures?
Post by: FifteensAway on January 11, 2011, 05:06:37 AM

I am in the early stages of a quest for 15 mm female figures - and kids - to add to my Colonial collections.  I am looking for Mata Hari type figures, adventuress ladies, risque ladies, run of the mill ladies, native women all across the colonial spectrum.  I know Peter Pig and QRF well but I'm sure there are some pleasant surprises out there somewhere and I'm hoping the fine folks here at LAF can offer their assistance.  Also, civilian men, both European and Native in non-military poses.  So, if you have information to share - especially pictures of the miniatures - I'd love to know about them.  I'm hoping we'll see more from Old Glory/Blue Moon when they get out their Darkest Africa range but I need some sooner rather than later.  Once acquired and painted they'll be decorating some cool games.  Thanks!    ???

khurasan makes nice sci-fi minis. no woman, but the headcutters could be used as native womans. their anathomy make them look... a bit alien!

Have you looked at Peter Pig? I know they have a lot of female figures in their pirate range. I'm not sure but I think there are some in the western range. If you can't find 15mm colonials look at 15mm westerns, same period.

Khurasan does in fact make one great female figure, in their pulp range.

Others:

Brigade's 15mm adventurers has several nice women.

Rebel minis new pulp line has some.

Irregular has some in Colonial range.

QRF's civilians from Old West

Minifigs civilians from Old west range

peter Pig has some in Sudanese women, and in Pirate range.

lancashire has de weemen in their Boxer range.

Blue Moon Old west civilians

Snowdogs,

Great page - two questions: you say the Jane figure (with Tarzan) is from Peter Pig, can you identify the pack the figure came out of?  Also, in your VSF photos, Victorian three, the ladies, the one on the left, can you get specific about where that figure came from as well?

I do have a number of the figures you reference but I have a little something in mind that needs more.  Some of the Blue Moon will work but they are so-oo much bigger than just about everybody else's figures that its hard to make them work.  Still, looking anxiously forward to when they release their "Darkest Africa" stuff, hope it is sooner rather than later but must be patient.  Thanks.

Jane is from range 6 pack 11, the other one is a minifigs young girl from the townsfolk wild west pack.

I'm not familiar with the Blue-moon figs so I'll go and have a wee look.

Hope this helps anyway.

Steve.
