I've discovered Biohazard recently with the 3DS version : Revelations. I love playing it in cooperation with my wife. So I wanted to go on by playing Gears of War the Boardgame with biohazard like miniatures.
Two big problems :
I did not find any unofficial biohasard miniature for the main heroes (Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine).
Mutants of Revelations are not zombies, is there is any miniature range which could be close enough?
Please, help! :D
-
Hasselfree or Heresy might provide for some of the Biohazard heroes, but I have no idea about the mutants.
-
Recreational Conflict has a bunch of not-Biohazard (Resident Evil, right?) miniatures:

The future wars miniatures of Copplestone could help : ???

Many thanks for your answers! :)
Yes, I mean Resident Evil (Biohazards may be the "japonese" title?).
Recreational Conflict provides some interesting miniatures but shipping from the US could be heavy for only one or two of them.
Copplestone Castings... I knew that! There is always a miniature for me at Copplestone Castings! :-*

The second female trooper (from the left) could be a perfect Valentine from Revelations! And one of the Bareheaded Troopers could be Redfield.
For the mutants, I'll have to convert some miniatures... Hum... That will note be easy but I'll find something.

Pretty sure two different series, though there may be a version that uses part of the other's title. *shrug*
Biohazard has the guys in diving suits with drill for one hand, right?

That's bioshock, biohazard = resident evil in Japan, or resident evil = biohazard everywhere else, however you wanna look at it.

there is also a not Chris Redfield from Portal (Neuroshima Tactics Game).If you're in Europe you can get him from Battlefield Berlin,email them for a moderate Shipping Rate ;)

The Neuroshima Tactics miniature is quite cool! :)

Mutants, not even close to an exact match but as close as I can think of, you'll have to add some spikey bits and putty but at least these might work as starting point:

Avolak Castings (http://www.avolakcastings.com/#!store/productsstackergalleryv20=7)- god of perversity + placcy zombie + a bit of putty or some leech-like thingy for a head (can only think of the Otherworld (http://otherworldminiatures.co.uk/shop/dungeon-vermon/dv5a-giant-leeches-4/) leeches atm but maybe there's some placcy toys as well)

Thanks for the idées Ink the Troll! :)
To help to find ideas, these are some of the mutants of Revelations :

These ones could be a good start maybe?

In a somewhat similar vain, the Heresy Blights (really should paint mine): http://heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_10_91
The pics on the site really don't do them justice! There's some more painted ones to be found via google.
-
Yep, Heresy Blights could be fine.
Finally Hunters could be the most difficult miniatures to find/convert... I thought it would be the easiest ones but I can't find any good "coun as"... :?
