Title: Sources for cheap 28mm dumpsters, trash bins, etc.?
Post by: NickNascati on November 07, 2016, 07:27:31 PM

All,
So I am building up terrain for modern skirmish games. I've got tires, boxes, tables and vehicles, all very cheap. I am stuck on dumpsters, trash skips etc. I have looked on ebay and google, and have seen things for crazy prices. Anyone have any tips for cheap sources?  US shops preferred.

I'm pretty sure Reaper did a couple of things like trash bins in Bones material - can't be that expensive.

Five bucks before discount?

The old company Armorcast does some trash bins in resin:

Fenris do some (Hasslefree supplies a couple), as does Ainsty. There's plastic ones by Mantic as well, but I'm not sure of the cost. Studio Miniatures have bits and bobs too. Pardulon do all kinds of stuff as well. That's off the top of my head.
