Peeky Blinders Miniatures
« on: January 14, 2018, 12:39:30 PM »
Please, can you recommend Miniatures that look like the Peaky Blinders from the TV series? and rules too?



Copplestone has a few packs.

GN2 - The O'Hare Boys
GN13 - Street Toughs
GN6 - Hired Hitmen

Are there any others?

I will also need some English Police of the period.

Thanks

Mick

Artizan Designs do a handful of packs of nice police figures. Footsore Miniatures have RIC figures in their "interwar" range, which will serve equally well as British bobbies in caps.
You might find some other useful figures for what you want in the Footsore range.
Tutenes, Atque Cujus Exercitus?

Thank-you for the tips. I did some digging and found these, which are very good.

Some of the Urban Militia from Warlord Games Operation Sealion range?

Cheers,

Does anybody make heads wearing peaked (police-like) caps for 28mm?

Take a look at Copplestone Castings as well, several useful figures.  I talked to Mark about making a few more specific figures, and he seemded rahter interested.  Apparently his home town is Birmingham.

As for rules, depends on how big a game you want.  For most, Pulp Alley is a good fit.  You have 6 to 10 figures per side, with a good bit of role playing possible.

One of my favourite series on TV, and one I've always thought would work well on the tabletop.
