Not a scale that I'm interested in but I just thought I'd chip in and say that those two miniatures are very nice :) ... especially for the size.

I?m 100% in for this. A Post Apoc setting (set in an alternate 1998) using the Dark Future and Gaslands models is my largest hobby project. Heck, see my profile pic. I?ve been playing Gaslands with em, using home brewed rules for models on foot but am about to start playing Xenos Rampant. This scale is perfect for using with toy cars so these two games are a great fit.

I?ve got all the Gaslands figs, have collected most of the Dark Future ones, and have supplemented the project with Elheim and red box 1/72 stalkers, zombies and survivors. Here?s a preview of some of the models in the gangs of my collection.

I?d love to add these figs to my collection just let me know when they become available!

I love your project! Have defs studied your various gangs when I was getting into the Copplestone Gaslands figures!

I do my SciFi RPG with 20mm minis.

Mainly Dark Future, Elheim and Gaslands for humans though there's a scatter of other manufacturers 20mm stuff too.

On the evidence of the two minis shown here I'd definitely be interested .... providing I'm not going to need to sell a kidney to get them delivered!

I don't know if anyone else feels the same but one thing I am woefully short of is suitable civilians.

Traders in illicit goods

Corporate types with laptop equivalents or briefcases rather than armed to the teeth.
Crime Kingpins who rely on minions to do the actual fighting.
Mum, Dad and the kids to be kidnapped, rescued or collateral damage.
Passengers, customers and officials.

Perhaps that's just me.

Absolutely! One of the goals will be civilians. Have worked on a bunch of walking unarmed civilians to populate those city streets or station corridors. Useful for sci fi too, as the clothing would be somewhat near-modern / 80s future.

As with a few of the big settings, we will have Cyberpunk/Tech within the big walled cities, and more madmax / waterworld style Raiders further out into the wastelands. Celebrities and bounty hunters facing off on the endless highways for fame and money. Scavengers on dirtbikes pouring out of the old storm drains, old theme parks and industrial sites as strongholds for criminals and warlords...

Role-playing guys should really have a look at 20mm, as the space needed for throwaway minis is far less too. Cyberpunk warehouse skirmishes become quite doable on an A3 piece of paper etc.

Go well with the GW Judge Dredd floorplans or Loki battlemats new cyberpunk book.

Cracking work!
Not sure I can justify 20mm.... But would be very interested if you ever did some in 28mm as they look a perfect thematic fit for the Copplestone/Grenadier Future Wars range

These look absolutely magnificent!  :-*

Been wanting to do some 20mm cyberpunk for forever! Used to use the GW Dark Future pedestrians in my Cyberpunk 2020 games. Looking to get back into that, so the timing is perfect.

They would be great for Exploit Zero or Reality?s Edge!

Love ?em!  :)

Hi Lead 'eads, over the last few years I've been dreaming up a Cyberpunk / Dystopia / 80s-2000s / Dark Future setting, with a model range in 20mm*.

Designed to be Compatible with Gaslands, Dark Future, RPGs (the 20mm* size is pretty nice for gridded maps and loads of civilians...)

Here are the first two test models I made, but many more are in the wings to be shown off soon :-)

Will aim to cover Police, Thugs, Mercs, Scavengers, Civilians, Cyberpunk Runners, Raiders and many more...

Let me know if this is something of interest!

*20mm is aprox 23-24mm to top of head usually, maybe absolutely max 25mm, also known as 1/72

Definitely if they fit with the Gaslands figures.

I've scaled all my stuff around Copplestone's / Northstar Gaslands figures :-)

Those figures are fantastic - just exactly the kind of figures I'm looking for. Now, as to rules - have you looked at 'Reality's Edge'? Cyberpunkish wargame rules. Now deckers and riggers would be great to have, along with a few chromeboys/solo's/street samurai/ronin/call 'em what you will; cutting edge cyber-mercenaries. As well as the usual gangers and the crowd of millicent bystanders of course!
Fantastic work Maceface, can't wait to see more.

Sure. It's pretty bare-bones, but we try to keep it in the spirit of the Gaslands rules, and is working for us so far. We don't really use spawning points, but just have crew go on foot if their vehicle is wrecked, but doesn't explode. We use a foot model or each crew member that a vehicle has, but I have a lot of foot models. If a group only have a few, maybe they just consider a crew model for the driver only?

Anyway, this is what we're currently using: https://mikeyc222.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/gaslands_-wreck-n-crew.pdf
