As much as I love Fallout, the LAM miniatures have their own thing going on and power armour etc wouldn't fit in imo. Hazmat-ish figures are already present in the range, although with a Soviet feel. Some West-European types would probably work, largely because the gas-masks and weapons are noticeably different, but still in setting, if that makes sense?

There are plenty of Fallout-like figures already available and the LAM setting is something else entirely. I like what they're doing right now personally.

  • Asian/Pacific Islander/African survivors – it seems as though only Caucasians will survive the apocalypse at the minute! (There are post-apoc African tribals from E.D.E.N., I'll grant).
  • Spinning off from that: post-apoc Native Americans/First Nations – a combination of modern arms and equipment, alongside traditional armament and dress.

Less post-apoc (but useable therein):
  • Not-John Woo characters – some of the iconic characters from John Woo films: Chow Yun Fat in the body army with pump shotgun (and baby?) from Hard Boiled, with twin Berettas, trenchcoat and suit from The Killer or A Better Tomorrow, maybe even Mad Dog from Hard Boiled (one-eyed hitman with AK).
  • Not-Desperado characters – characters from the Mariachi trilogy

I would like to see the pirates range include a pack of female pirates, in similar style to the greens we have seen so far.  Most female pirates available seem to do their clothes shopping at Fredericks of Hollywood...

At the moment I think it is not necessary to post ideas. They guys allways meet the kind of miniatures, I want to buy. Maybe in a year or so...

We're always interested in your suggestions.

Actually at the moment we're already commissioning sculpting of miniatures for the coming late summer and autumn releases.

How are we poor mortals supposed to keep up with such a frantic release schedule? I haven't even got started on what's already out yet.  lol

Actually thinking on, I've always liked the idea of a 'Twilight 2000' type scenario, where isolated groups of the protagonists are forced to band together to survive against other similar groups. If we were talking a near future scenario the 'action' would be that bit further East. Again it would mean including some more Western European types to the already existing range, along with more civilian types. Plenty of present day vehicles from various sources about and it's pretty much along the lines of what's already available anyway.
