rocket launchers
« on: January 11, 2024, 01:36:19 PM »
I have a custom army coming together in 28mm and find myself in need of some man-portable anti-materiel rocket launchers.

Preferably in Australia. I don't want to pay over fifty backs to equip 5 guys.

If it's single shot, then any cylinder with the pistol grip off a pistol/rifle. Pop a cocktail stick/toothpick inside for a missile. Glue on bits of sprue for a sight unit.

Easy to replicate, would cost you a few cents and would probably be easy to make with stuff you have lying around...

There are some 'not' lego rpg's etc on Aliexpress might be useful. Not entirely sure on the scale though.

Anvil Industries claim £10 per order tracked to Australia.

They do Regiments (think Imperial Guard size) and Primaris size stuff.

Eureka are the only Australian company I’ve used before, and were awesome for what I needed.

They also stock a range of rocket launcher options:

The Stargrave Mercenaries and Troopers boxes both have shoulder mounted launchers. There are four sprues in the box.

A range meaning one? Only, the rest are actually cast into the hands of figures I don't need.
