Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Here is a comparison picture Star Wars figures I found on this site. They look pretty close to Heroscape size, which are pretty close to heroclix size. |

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Thank you! It looks like I have a brilliant figure lined up for Marcus Cole (which makes me really happy - don't know how many Babylon 5 fans there are here, but Marcus is one of the best characters in my favourite series which has one of the best character line ups I've ever seen - so yeah, he's epic). Now, just the Shredder to go at present.

I have the figure, I will try and take a reference photo when I get back home. I don't know if the Aragorn head swap will work, Clix scales tend to be all over the place. I'll take a photo with Drake, that should give you an idea. |

To me the Jedi Apprentice just needs some facial hair and a clothes repaint but my old eyes may not be viewing things accurately.

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
OK so here's a picture of the SW Exceptional Jedi Apprentice next to Sgt. Drake 1 and a Heroclix C3V soldier. His head is definitely smaller than Drake's, and a bit smaller than the Heroclix guy, but like I said the Heroclix scales vary wildly, so probably the only way for you to find out is to get the figures and see how they look. Good luck! |

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Thanks, IshMEL! Looks like that's Marcus dealt with - no closer with the Shredder, though. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
I found this site which has a custom made Shredder figure which looks to be about Heroclix scale. It's not a store though so I'm not sure if you can order the figure from the guy or how expensive it will be.
Also its based on the 80's Shredder not the 2003 Shredder. Aside from that the only other thing I can think of would be a modded Silver Samurai, I think this one would work best. |

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Yeah, I do have my heart set on a 2003-style Shredder, as that's how I know him (and he seems quite different from his 80s incarnation in a lot of ways), so it looks like Silver Samurai it is - not a problem, but I was wondering if there may be something better. The question now, is, where to go from there? Any ideas?
I'd like to thank you guys for all your help already - it's been awesome! |

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Keep in mind I am by no means a modding expert so take any advice I give you with a big grain of salt.
The first thing I'd do is lose the sword. Shredder never uses one in the new series IIRC. And second you should find a way to cover his face with something. One theme issue I think you might have, is that Shredder's claw goes on the left hand but the figure would naturally look better with it on the right. It's not that big of a deal and if you can look past it it's no problem. |

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Anyone know where you could find Roman cavalry & Viking miniatures to fit heroscape's scale? Seams easy to find everything needed to finish most of the armies but the historical stuff is difficult to find in the correct scale :/

Re: Figure Suggestion Thread
Miniature Market carries Wargames Factory miniatures in the correct scale. Pretty sure they have Roman Cavalry. Not sure about the Vikings. Assembly and painting required.
