If you could have your own range?

2)Humanoid type Aliens(lion headed,werewoves,lizard heads etc) like Khurasan(except 28mm) and Blue Moon(except complete ranges) do,in heroic 28mm to match GW figures.Think Infinity but not as fiddly or exspensive.

The first would probably not be very popular but the second,I think anyway, would.
 

Sounds good alright!

I seem to recall the 'Humanoid Alien headswap' sprue was generally considered to be one of the more viable Wargames Factory planned releases. Generic humanoid bodies with a choice of heads - I thik we thought 'lizard, bug, beast' were pretty much what we'd need... I'd still get those, in plastic or lead, if my plan to put Skaven heads on Tau bodies doesn't come off.

For my own range... Victorian/VSF/Steampunk of course, but naturally stuff that other people aren't - Mechanic types (who keeps all those aeronefs flying, that's what I want to know), Victorian Sky Pirates, always more females (any range I can think of is at least 80% male)...

Strogg in 28mm, both from Quake II and IV. The only models that come close to the style are the Jotuns from Hasslefree.

 Option 2 is a good one fitterpete.Always after idea's for future releases.

El Cid/Reconquesta era armies in 1/48 (true proportions) in multipart rigid plastic.

....and with the funds raised by the inevitable success of that, a range of Wallachian, Hungarian, Turk armies for the era of Vlad Tepes and the Ottoman wars. Also true proportion 1/48 multi part rigid plastics.

 Hold on Rob no mention of 1999 miniatures in your post  .Are you feeling okay  .

What do you mean, "if"...? 

Snap.

I'd get Tre Manor to sculpt a 20mm scale Post Apoc line, and then release plastic accessories to add to Matchbox cars for inexpensive conversions. Then I would re-open my Warlands rulebook, and stop buying Dark Future minis over and over again!

You know what? I can do a LOT better than my first idea.  
I would love to have some alternative Warsaw Pact soldiers in 28mm.
I'm talking about Hungarians, Romanians and Czechoslovak soldiers.
A pisser about the (otherwise lovely) Mongrel Miniatures Soviet infantry is that they're all in jackboots.
The other states (from what I've seen) stuck to ankle boots.

Then I would love to see the Yugoslav National Army for the 1980s.
Nice uniforms and some distinct pieces of equipment.
Seen as they faced the threat of invasion from East and West they would make for a good third party.

I think I'd consider Roman civilians, including some adventurous types.

Most ranges could do with more and varied civilians, as mostly the soldiery gets done all the time and sometimes by multiple companies.

Hah, problem with 1999 is that I would want the figures to be the same, which either means getting Henrik, Werner and Stefan involved again (a pretty tall order these days I would think!) or getting someone else able to exactly copycat the styles.

But then, if I commission sculpts that are the same design, same style and same look as the originals would that really be my own range?

[Damas]

My furvent wish is for 28mm Mounties and State Troopers for Prohibition Era gaming.  The only ones available just aren't up to the standards of figures currently out.

Quit being so philosphical, and get it done!

LOL, I am just the opposite.

NATO troops other than American or British.

Now, from my own fevered imagination:

M-i-i-i-i-i-i-c-e in S-p-a-a-a-a-a-c-e!

Not rats  or ferrets or or <fill in the blank> but furry, friendly looking mice.  Who will gladly kill you in 'preemptive self-defense' in a heartbeat while smiling the whole time.  With headsets-microphones, goggles, jet packs, sonic weapons (big bell shaped 'business ends') and heavy weapons (RL/ML/MMG/HMG/FT types.) I'd settle for any scale but my preferences would that they be somewhere between mid-calf to mid thigh high on a 25 mm tall human figure.

Gracias,
