Title: Looking for a cheerleader miniature resembling April O'Neill (TMNT)
Post by: Murmel on July 22, 2015, 08:44:40 PM

I turn to thee for help, overlords of the Lead Adventure Forum!

I'm looking for an April O'Neill (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) miniature or one that could pass for her, that could preferably also pass for a cheerleader. Classic April (yellow jumpsuit) is preferably, but I'll grudgingly take a Megan Fox-era April if I can't find another. 28mm scale. Again, it does not have to actually be an April O'Neil, a girl that could pass for her by painting it accordingly would be great as well.

Not entirely sure how well it'd fit the bill but there's this from Greebo:

It might be possible to convert that into a more cheerleader-like figure, I suppose.

I don't normally associate cheerleaders with boilersuits, so I don't know if these are any use to you at all: they are in more usual ra-ra skirt outfits.

I'm pretty sure Hasslefree makes a cheerleader, too, but their site is down for maintenance.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I think I'll definitely get the Greebo one and one or two of the cheerleaders for conversion pieces.

I got them painted some time ago.

Quote from: Michi

The cheerleaders are three teams of three plus a nurse each.
The poses are equal to make it easier to judge for performance...  :grin:

Excellent paint jobs Michi, I especially like the nurse in the first shot.
