Title: Looking for sources of DESTINY lookalike figures
Post by: dadlamassu on January 23, 2015, 01:24:31 PM

(I hope this posted in the correct place)

My son is addicted to a computer/game console game called DESTINY.  His wife wants me to make him a diorama of the figures in the game but I have no idea where to get the figures.  I suppose I'm looking at 28-54mm sized figures.

This is not my period nor have I played the game but I have looked on Google to see the sort of thing that I need to make so any suggestions and ideas welcome.

There was a thread on here, with suggestions for the different player characters, when the game was first released.

I think commander vyper may have started it.

Do a search of this board and see if you can dig it up.

Good luck

The Infinity Nomad faction's Reverend Custodiers and Sin-Eater Observants look spot-on, to me.

CP models has a few Sci-Fi hired guns that look good.

Wreck Age's Reclaimer faction looks like a pretty good match, IMO.

Some of the rebels from Mantic's Deadzone might work.

Sorry, I don't have links handy, but a quick google search should turn all of those up.

I would second the Infinity minis.
Was thinking once to start a Destiny Project myself and in my eyes a lot of the Infinity minis are an excellent startingpoint for that  :)

Yes i did. Very little added but worth looking at. I was looking to see whether I'd taken a picture when i finished the Titan Proxy. I'll try to take a pic tonight but it'll be posted on my thread. ;)

Trent have some 28mm SF types that might suit (the only stockist I'm aware of is North Star)

Halo clix might be worth a look as a base, as the armour styles (both bein designed by the same company) are fairly similar - I started knocking together a conversion when the beta was out that I never got round to doing anything with...
