Hey all, I'm looking for a generic space trooper firing a space rifle figure.

I know there was that company that made the catgirls characters from Dominion Tank Police and Appleseed that had a 25mm space range, but I'm blanking on their name, and I'm sure the old WEG Star Wars figures probably have a generic space trooper. Suggestions?

Just like a 40K2 Cadian with space rifle or Mobile Infantry guy from the first SST movie.

Also looking for 1/48 scale random stowage; metal barrels, jerry cans and maybe ammo boxes.

Same with animals; dogs, cats, mice, woodland creatures. There's a snail and a dog that come with Bretonnian set and Pegasus makes a set of farm animals. All the Reaper stuff seems a bit big.

Tamiya makes a 1:48 or 1:50 kits of barrels, Jerry cans and something else I can't remember.

You are thinking of Ground Zero Games.

Victory's Aurora figs are pretty sweet:

RoboGear … or whatever it is called nowadays. The trooper figures for the game are great generic scifi rifle guys. Hoard o' Bits has 'em at like 10 for $2. USD Good conversion fodder, too.

That's Ground Zero Games.

Hrm… will have to email Jon, figure out where the anime-inspired minis have disappeared to. I can't seem to find a listing for them at the GZG webshop.

Hm, I though for sure, someone would have pointed out 1/48 scale is big, like heroclix figures and not tiny, like true 25mm figures.

I'm going for a forced perspective thing.

Thanks for the advice all. Denizen is the company that makes the catgirl and true 25mm sci-fi figures, and there's a few WEG Star Wars bounty hunters that might work as well.

Lion in the Stars, the fact that GZG doesn't have a catalog is so aggravating, there's so much stuff I planned to order, now that I see what it's like and so much I'll never order, if I can't see a picture of it first.

I know the guy doesn't make a ton of money but he could be making so much more if he just had some pics on his website.

1st Corps has a range of 25mm SST stuff:

Oh, got an answer back from Jon@GZG. He still has the molds, but the anime-inspired minis have mostly been pulled from the store due to low sales.

But he'll spin a few for you if you ask nicely.

One catalog is here: PDF link and it has the Bubblegum Crisis, Deunan&Briareos, and the Dirty Pair minis listed, as well as the Mobile Suit Girls.

I'm still looking for a catalog with the Panda-monium, Panda's Video Fighter, and Kawaii 5-0 listings.
