Maybe somebody here can help. I'm finally getting back to doing some starship miniatures (for Firestorm Armada, in this case, which allows a lot of customization). I'm slowly finding sources for my first love in Space Opera (Star Wars), but I've had a beast of a time finding stuff for another big love, Star Trek.
Original Series era is not a problem, but it's the newer stuff I'm looking for, and while I've managed to find a -few- TNG and post TNG era miniatures for Star Trek (Cardassians, some Borg, a handful of Klingons) I've had no luck finding Romulans, and even LESS luck finding Federation (amazingly enough). In general, availability just seems poor. There are Micro Machines, but they're small, and scale is sort of "whatever will fit in the box".
Anyway, I'm told that these miniatures -do- exist somewhere, however. Occasionally they pop up as garage casts, or one offs. Sometimes a company will do a run, then disappear.
Would any of you with connections be willing to share a source? Does anyone have any suggestions?
