John McClane miniature?
« on: October 31, 2015, 12:05:04 AM »
Do any companies produce a Die Hard John McClane lookalike in 28mm? I'm planning a Die Hard game and could really use one. I know Hassle-free definitely used to but I don't know if they still do as I couldn't find it on their site anywhere.
Thanks for any help

Rogue Miniatures do an awesome Die Hard set.

Cheers, that's the one I was thinking of knew I'd seen it somewhere.
Does anyone know how well the Studio and Rogue miniatures scale together
Thanks

The Studio ones tend to have larger heads slightly. They'll mix be fine tbh. Rogue used to do a John McClane fig but doesn't appear on the site at the minute.

The Zombicide 'Nick' figure would work too:



At least I thought it would until I looked at what they are going for on Ebay.

There is one coming from Megacon Games at some point.  He was part of the Kickstarter for Mercs Recon.

Just an idea ... stick the Bruce Willis head from Mad Robot Miniatures on any mini you like to create your own John McClane.

who are heads 1 and 3?
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

1 could be a bald Mickey Rourke, and 3 looks like Kirk Douglas (although I don't rmember him starring in any movie wher ehe wore a beret).

Number three looks like Sly Stallone to me.

My guess is 1) Statham 3) Stalone (Demolition Man or Expendables) 4) Robert Duvall (Apoclypse Now) 4) R. Lee Ermey. But 1 could be anyone. You could make a case for Brando in Apocalypse Now.

#3 would also be a passable Smedley Butler if you converted the beret to thin hair. Hm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
