Scifi/Futuristic Firefighters

I'm after a firefighting crew for our Dredd games and have the vehicle and a selection of robots sorted but would like a few (3 or 4) human firefighters in suitable attire.

I've googled but can't find anything suitable, have looked at Chemical/Hazmat suits from a few manufacturers but most have weapons.

Any suggestions?

GZG do a fire crew, but will probably need their bases bulking out due to their size.

Hasslefree has some hazmat guys most have guns but they do three that might be useful a comms guy, a guy with a Giger counter and a guy with a flamethrower that might make a good fire extinguisher.

Thanks Earther, but should have said - as my Dredd figures are more 30mm+ figures like GZG or Hasslefree will be a bit too small.

I thought so, but they are the only ones I know of.

What about some powered armour suits (from your range of choice - bulky or 'sleek') painted in 'hi-vis' safety schemes, with hoses or extinguishers replacing the weaponry?

Black Hat do some good stuff in their Cobalt and Mutants and Madmen ranges. Dreadball figures, Studio McVey or similar may work too?

I feel like any society with sufficient technology would not send humans into burning buildings, but would use robots or telepresence/ROVs instead.

If it's the Dredd setting, they probably still use people simply to save a few more jobs (however hazardous) for actual humans.  Robots taking away firefighting jobs would probably cause enough uproar to require the Judges to start breaking out the riot foam and stumm gas.

That might actually inspire a good scenario for a skirmish.  The block fire department has just "hired" a new robotic firefighter and the Judges have a tip that protesters are planning to wreck it, maybe at an arson fire they've started to draw it out where it's vulnerable.  Can the FD put out the fire in the middle of a gunfight?  Can the Judges save that expensive bot from the pro-work loons?  Do they even want to?  What happens when the fire gets out of control?  Do the fools keep fighting in a burning hab-block?

2000AD would make some kind of ironic point with that as a story, no doubt.

How about Casting room miniatures (Foundry's other company) not sure on size though.
