Minis you would want for your own personal collection

[Legacy Account]

Resident Evil - every character/creature from every game.

Big Daddy and Little Sister from Bioshock.

All the characters from all the Oddworld games.

Metal Gear Solid characters.

 

[Amazon warrior]

...or the dude from pans labyrinth with eyes in his hands! (if you\'ve seen the film, you think that would be a good\'n?)

Oooh yes! I love that film! Eye-hand dude was very scary. A mini of Pan from that film would be very cool too.

Oh, I forgot to add - Gordon Freeman from \"Half-Life\" would make a great miniature. Swinging his iconic crowbar or maybe throwing cars around with the gravity gun

rofl yeah i figured you\'d like that! i think this would be cool:

or maybe just standing there with the crowbar resting on his shoulder, waiting for the headcrabs!

I would like to see miniatures based on David Eddings\' characters from The Elenium.
It really wasn\'t great writing, I don\'t think. The characters seemed to breeze through all the challenges that came before them, but the descriptions of their weapons and armour seemed very interesting, and I think they would make very good miniatures if they were sculpted by the right people.

I don\'t know the names of very many sculptors, though, so I couldn\'t say who, specifically.

All the minis I could ever want are from rackham but they are suppose to stop making there metal minis.

Although I could go for some minis from the movie Willow.

Also some of the Guardian Forces from Final Fantasy 8 would be fun.

 

[Gilvan Blight]

Discworld minis would be cool. Douglas Adams Hitchiker Minis also.

I\'d personally love to see some well done Marvel Heroes. The heroclix minis just aren\'t up to standard, plus the whole cheap pre-painted thing doesn\'t lend itself to painting. I have a bunch of the old lead ones for the TSR RPG but they are so old that even the Clix minis look better. I\'ve been impressed by those 54+mm ones discussed in other threads, but I would want to see 25 or 28mm.

I also want some Minis for the Feng Shui RPG but those I have been able to find from various mini makers, even though there isn\'t a licenced set.

Lastly I would love to see some Robotech minis that aren\'t just Veritechs renamed to Wasps by FASA.

 

[ipaintminis]

I\'ve always wanted to have some DiscWorld Minis.

but my main wish came true when Darksword started producing the minis based on the Songs of Ice and Fire

I\'ve also always wanted some Dune Minis Preferably not based on the original movie

 

[Gilvan Blight]

I nevery thought of Dune. I would love that as well.

I would take it a step farther though. I want a whole Miniature Wargame. The base set would come with Atredes and Harkonen house armies. The next release would be the Freman mercenaries. Then the dreaded Sardukar. Introducing armies of the other houses as time went on. Special models for things like Facedancers, Bene Gesserit, Mentats, etc. I would buy that, heck I\'d write it if the Hebert estate were more giving in their licence control.

It would not be that hard to sculpt a bunch of recognizable \"characters\" who were technically not 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Tupac etc. Most rappers cultivate their own style which would stand out even in 28mm scale. But I doubt there would be a huge market for them. Then again, I\'m a whiteboy who likes Sarah McLachlan, what do I know?

(The Wu Tang Clan as street samurai would be pretty cool. Throw in Forrest Whitaker from \"Ghost Dog\" and it\'d be a great set...

Thats what i meant, it wouldn\'t be too difficult to scuplt the models so that people know who they are, i just think that the market wouldn\'t be too big, and thats what i meant about the ideologies.

Could you imagine the stereotypical \'hood\' rap fan battling his hip hop sculpts. Still it would be cool to have certain artists, wu tang clan would have to be a must,

the Gordon freeman sculpt would be quite cool also.

along wih MGS as i previously mentioned, maybe some gta models lol (could have some nice dioramas.

 

[DaN]

Just thought;
Hellraiser

 

[krokar]

Judge dredd and judge death and comic characters,
hellraiser would be sweet, and dante from devilmay cry

do characters from cult movies and stuff

 

[ipaintminis]

ROCKY HORROR!

I want my own 28 mm (or 54 if you prefer) Transsexual Transalvania!

 

[Undave]

I\'ve always thought that the Command and Conquer games would spawn some good minis. Not so much the Red Alert side of it but the Tiberium Wars stuff would be great.

Also I want an army of Cybermen

DELEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETE!!!!

Mongoose Publishing releases Judge Dredd and other characters for their Gangs of Mega City One miniature game. There was another company that did pretty much the entire 2000AD line, though right now the name skips my memory... may have been Foundry.

 

[diddy lemon1]

if i could have any minis i wanted i would have all of the original rogue trader space marines and someone sculpting me more in the same style all the time

They may not be the most detailed sculpts ever but i love the way they look, they are all full of character they are great

Incidentally, Citadel (The company who owns GW) did an old 1980s Judge Dredd line of figures

Rackham metals are safe and sound!
