Title: Gurka w Kukri Figure?
Post by: Abbner Home on December 18, 2010, 10:50:38 AM

Can any one point me to a 28mm figure of a Gurka w kukri knife in hand? I need it for a WWWII rpg - so it can have significant artistic license. Thus this forum.

Thanks for any tips.

West Wind Gothic Horror, Pulp Miniatures, Pontoonier, Eureka. Some odf them have older uniforms but those seem to have hung around for barrack orders well into the mid 20th century (rifle green and pilllbox hat).

My absolute favourites are the West Wind Yeti Hunters that Hammer's mentioned. Although the TAG ones are probably more what you're looking for.

The TAG one is exactly what I'm looking for.

Thanks to all for the suggestions. Besides getting a specific answer I've learned I need to keep up with Pacific ranges better.
