Title: Looking for minis
Post by: Wolf Girl on 16 February 2013, 08:10:54 PM

Hello everyone! We're trying to put together a VSF league for Pulp Alley and were wondering what are some recommended manufacturing companies for good steampunk minis. Thanks. :)

Second the LAM figures  8)

There's plenty out there but I wouldn't say any manufacturer that has a complete range suited for every eventuality (probably because it hasn't been though of yet  :)).

West wind have a good range and there's a kickstarter for them at the moment (see the Gothic horror board)

Nick at Northstar is also starting in this genre, you can see it here on this here very board.

Ironclad have quite a good range.

It also depends on what your after  ??? Is it purely Steampunk or is there a more historical bent to it.

Knowing nation types and type of 'group' would help to pin down a suitable range  :)

cheers

James

Recreational Conflict's Lead Bones has a divers hardsuit designed from a 1920s Belgian suit that should work well.

There are some great character figures in Reaper's Chronoscope line, and I am fond of Warmachine for characters and klanks.
