Figures for Gorkamorka "Diggas"???
« on: July 28, 2023, 12:53:22 AM »
We are in to Gorkamorka lately (using TSATF RULES), GOT PLENTY OF orks, but what about suitable, cheap "diggas"?

Suggestions welcome

I can't think of anything that looks quite like gorka morka diggas. Maybe you try the old Grenadier Future wars savages?

The Crooked Dice 'not Warboys' - https://crooked-dice.co.uk/product/joyriders/ - are the best fit that immediately comes to mind.

With some shaving of mowhawks, a couple of these guys could also fit

Ditto the Future Wars Savages, from Em-4

With judicious filing and application of the bits box, you might be able to get some of the Foundry Darkest Africa figures to work. Maybe also some woodland indians.

If I remember rightly they was supposed to mirror the orks so what about necromunda goliaths ?

If there isn't a great stand-in, I'd be very tempted to go with any kind of shirtless/less-clothed fantasy figures, chuck some pistols on them.  They're rather low-tech and feral looking.  Plenty of good "barbarian"-esque minis out there who could simply take a lasgun or pistol holster onboard.
