Title: kickstarter Chechen's?
Post by: Kikuchiyo on September 24, 2021, 12:57:22 PM
I've seen them mentioned on here a few times and they look like they would make great zona alfa bandits

just wondering how they scale agains Eureka soviets and also how to get hold of them

were they just a limited run never to be seen again?

I have a bunch. Smaller, slighter than the LAM figs, they work very well beside Eureka Soviets. Each one is very much an individual with loads of character.
I've got quite a few unpainted Eastern European/Soviet figs in the painting room. (understandably) Which ones are you looking for and how many?

Scale sounds good, I was just looking for 4 different AK wielding figures

Empress Miniatures does a full range of Chechens and Russians from that conflict, by the way.

Thanks but they tend to be a fair bit taller, ok for the odd model but can't have them dwarfing the soviet forces

4 with AKs... Chechen Fighters or Russian Military?

IIRC, Empress' Chechen range is sculpted by someone other than the chap who does a lot of their other modern ranges.  Empress' Chechen range and Tiny terrain's stuff size well together.  In the pic below, left to right, is Mongrel Miniatures Russians, Empress Miniatures ("Modern" Russians range), Tiny Terrain Miniatures (Chechen range Russians), Tiny Terrain Miniatures (Chechen range Chechen), Empress Miniatures (Chechen range Chechen), and Spectre Miniatures (Covert Ops range).  Note that the Empress modern Russian is a bit taller than the Empress Chechen fig, while the Tiny Terrain and Empress Chechen figs match pretty well...
