Title: Looking for 15mm dirtbikers.
Post by: YPU on 13 March 2012, 05:02:42 PM

Does anybody know any good 15mm modern dirt-biker models? I am looking to get some hight speed support for my rebel minies Sahadeen  force for flying lead, as I really like the way the bike rules are handled in that book. However searching for 15mm miniature dirtbike or any other variation on the name leads to 15mm size parts for those daft mini bikes that are/were all the rage.

I am particularly looking for guys either in modern like biker armor/padding or a more middle eastern look. But not hells angels like, rebel do sell those actually.

thanks,
Tim

They're already post apoc ish so with a bit of green stuffing they could fit with Sahadeen. Not very dirt bikey I'm afraid though.

Its very weird, I was under the impression there were plenty of dirtbikes in 15mm, and assumed that models in typical modern day riding gear would be equally abundant but no such luck

I'd kind of assumed the same, have you considered micro machines

the riders shouldn't be too hard to find GZG ect, but it might get a bit expensive quickly  :(
