Damn, those warboys like BADASS!
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Brilliant ANPU, they have turned out great. :-* :-*

Are you using 1/43 models, or cheap toys for the cars? The interceptor looks like the real thing! 8)

I almost picked up a box of WGF Indians for that very reason last weekend. Sadly all my monies went on rubber/resin instead. ;) any tips you have discovered with using the Indians for war boys? (Do you need survivors arms?)

The steering wheel boy looks awesome. 8) 8)

Cheers
Matt.

Looking very good indeed.

Those resin wheels look super too, where oh where did you get such neat wheels at a good price?  ;)

Awesome! I'm working on very similar figs right now using those same kits. :-)

Sweet cars and raiders all! Will that beetle(?) be getting a post-apoc makeover, or was it just there for scale?

I think that's a BMW Isetta 300 bubble car.

Indeed it is. Perhaps just a bit more rust but it is a fun contrast to the other end of the spectrum of car madness.
Thanks for all the comments.
I mostly use 1:43 and 1:48 diecast cars a few plastic kits and some cheap toys in the pipeline.
Love the resin wheels Phil.

Absolutely, I'd love to find one in HW scale. The first "car" my old man had was a Heinkel Kabine, which handles like a bowling ball when there's ice on the ground. He discovered this unique ability during the big freeze of '62-'63 and sold what was left of it shortly after.

Love the resin wheels Phil.

Good, I was thinking of making a new set with armoured hubs on them... what do you reckon?

I use survivor arms with weapons mostly. The exploding spears mainly use indan arms drilled out to insert plastic rod. The resin wheels are sold by 6milphil.
I got a few resin junktrucks from Pardulon as well waiting to be built.
