15mm astronauts?
« on: May 29, 2022, 07:43:01 PM »
All,
      I’m coming up empty searching.  Does anyone in the US make classic Destination Moon type astronauts in 15mm?

       Nick

This is what I’m talking about -

Not a US retailer, but at least on the same side of the Atlantic, RAFM manufactures the old 15mm Traveller figures, including some equipped with space suits: http://www.rafm.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=RAF&Product_Code=RAF07012&Category_Code=GRAV



These, too: http://www.rafm.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=RAF&Product_Code=RAF07022&Category_Code=GRAV

There's also GZG's entire Moongrunt range to consider.

If you like Gerry Anderson UFO vibe there's 15mm moonbase and some other more fanciful vehicles/infantry here:

GZG range does look good, might depend how realistic or mangaish your looking for?

Brigade mini stockists have reached Europe and across the pond :)

Rebel Miniatures makes Earth Force Marines from the old Space Above and Beyond show.

Here's what they look like.

And Khurasan was going to release its version (and some Chigs) but, after getting all kinds of feedback to use on that project, he never went ahead with it.

Darkest Star Games' Federation troops might have enough of a retro look to work too:

You can see the details best of the painted ones riding the grav-sled.

A bit late to the party, but Blue Moon makes the Orion Troopers.

They're available from Old Glory USA.
