Wargames Atlantic Plastic Pulp
« on: April 08, 2021, 03:22:54 PM »
Before they become as hard to get hold of as the Wargames Atlantic Irish, thought I'd recommend people in the direction of the "French Resistance Partisans" box set from WA, found that even if the weapon options are a bit limited (too many bren and MP40s), these minis are exactly what I'd hoped they would be:

models straight off of the sprue with no conversions (so far  :) )

They look pretty good.  I'll try and get a sprue or two online.

Thanks
No dear, they are not toys, they are models

Any idea how they scale with other pulp minis? Copplestone, Pulp Alley, Pulp Figures, etc.

Those look fine for VBCW

Alcide,
           That would be my question as well. The plastics seem to run a bit smaller.

Alcide - I've compared them to a couple of Copplestone miniatures and I think they scale well:

Would have been great if one of the poses had been a female in a long skirt.

Perhaps with a 1940s camera and a beret. I suspect that they might release a female fighters box down the line?

I got a sprue from eBay & quickly painted a couple.
Here’s a size comparison with White Knight, Artizan, Foundry, Pulp & Foundry

Thanks  :D

WhiteKnight did them a few years ago along with a grayscale spidermale  a Wondrous woman.
