Dead Man's Hand and Foundry miniatures
« on: July 27, 2016, 03:09:21 PM »
I just bought the Apaches from DMH and was wondering if Foundry's old Apache line would scale with them?
if not who has Apaches beside Artizan?
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.

If you don't hate resin you could look into Black Scorpion's line of Apaches.

So I've been wondering the same question, and I guess it comes down to how much of a scale nut you are. The foundry figures are generally both shorter*  and slighter than the DMH ones.  There are also apache (4 figures) made by Galloping Major, which I believe are about the same size as Artizan and the old Westind wind/Old glory Cowboy Wars range has 2 packs of Apache renegades (2 'characters' with mounted/dismounted variants per pack.) No idea on size - guessing closer to new Foundry/Artizan than Old Foundry

* A couple of the Copplestone apache seem to be about the same size as the Mike Owen Cowboys, but most aren't. No idea why though!

Here is a picture of a whole bunch of manufacturers together....


The Apache band of Geronimac....



In amongst that lot are Black Scorpion, Galloping Major, DMH, Foundry (the mounted ones) and a few conversions from Blind Beggar Cowboys.

I think that they all work OK together, but scale-wise, Foundry are indeed the smallest.

Hi,
I have the Dead Man's Hand Renegades and got some Foundry Apache to go with them.  However, I was very disappointed to find the Dead Man's Hand figures are much much bigger than the Foundry Apaches and to my eyes the two ranges aren't compatible.  I also have a Black Scorpion Apache chief and he is quite big but much more compatible with the Dead Man's Hand figures.
