Feanor Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Anyone know where I can get a good look at some Greek and Roman style minis through egypt in ther too. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flit Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Try Crocodile Games for Fantasy Egyptian minis, I believe they are coming out with some Greek/ Roman types, but don't know if they are available yet. These are definatly Fantasy type minis, if you are wanting something more realistic try the historical lines. I am not familiar with the historical lines so someone else will have to point you to the best companies for those. Ral Partha used to do some historicals, but I don't know if Iron Wind Metals is producing them or not. Hope that was of some use to you.

Lars Porsenna Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Might be best to post this in the Historical section. In particular, see this thread. Many of my links would also apply to Greeks and Egyptians. Damon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRigger Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 There are a boatload of greeks and romans available. What scale are you looking in? 6mm, 10mm, 15mm 28mm, 54mm ? Foundry does soem expensive, but nice 28s Renegade has Romans, and I think greeks Black Tree Deisgns Old GLory Actually - loads of little companies too. Xyston makes some brilliant greeks in 15mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matsumoto Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 There are a boatload of greeks and romans available. What scale are you looking in? 6mm, 10mm, 15mm 28mm, 54mm ? Feanor, listen to The Man here. SaintRigger knows the historical mini market. Honestly, though scale is a pertinent issue when looking for any historics, lets chop up your potential profile: A: you are presently a player of WHFB/WH40K/WARlord/DnD/etcetera... B: you are inspired by 300 C: you are not a historical Gamer presently i recommend 28mm scale mini's, just off of familiarity and size adaptation. Go Wargames Foundry if you need a vast amount of regimented martial poses, and have no fear of seeing a penis cast in pewter. Old Glory doesn't offer a variety of what kind of greeks you get, but it does have made in america 28mm Hoplites. Crocodille games is good if you wanna get your GW-esque 'greek' on... Xyston actually makes some neat 28mm heroes...but they are "standing dude" in pose. Vendel mini's look good, but i think they are UK only.... AVOID DIXON!!! (unless you are headed to big-head-cartoon greece) that's my two cents, however unexperienced by compare. SaintRigger, what better choice might you add in 28mm??

SaintRigger Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Inspired by 300, I'd go with the Crocodile "Wargods of Olympus" Those are some great Spartans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilbob Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 If I didn't know better I'd think he was moving back here and needed a mini for my husbands next D&D game. but I know better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(in Idaho, that means middle of July sometime at the earliest...) should i......? (PS: Edit: incase you need to know....those Croc' Spartans were special availability for the longest time, being up for convention goers and E-bay fanatics only...)

SaintRigger Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 I've got 2 or 3 packs of the Spartans. I adore them :) I'll probably get more, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Porsenna Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 I order from the UK all the time, and never have any problems. In fact I just last week recieved a shipment of Samnites (cooler than Greeks because they are Italians...). I was not aware Vendel had Greeks (other than Macedonians). Damon.
