I think there is a manufacturer that makes Colonial Marines and their vehicles (from the Alien saga) in 6mm.

Does someone remember that company??? GZG maybe???

thanks in advance.

No not GZG ... Their 6mm NAC I'm using them for Hammer's Slammers ... Here's some pics of NAC, ESU, etc. ... http://s48.photobucket.com/albums/f248/ ... 2QQtppZZ20 I'm using MicroMachines "Aliens" APC for my Epic Traitor PDF ... Image These are ESU ... they come close ... Image Image Maybe ...

I have some in either 10mm or 15mm (I cant remember exactly) but I have not heard of a range in 6mm.

i'd love to see some 15mm colonial marines actually, cause there are some great Alien figures in that scale, and i've been looking for equally great marines to build a game with

I know pendraken (10mm), they are quite good, but I´m looking for something even smaller.

+1 jaggedtoothgrin - I was going to suggest looking at Khurasan as i knew they did alien-type bugs, but i took a quick look and no marines as far as i can see (and also wrong scale.)

Lord-bruno - I expect you have already seen them, but i thought the Dark Realm AT and Reg HQ infantry had a kinda IG Cadian look about them, which isn't far away from the Colonial Marines (at 6mm ! ) http://www.darkrealmminiatures.co.uk/st ... .php?cat=2 There's even a guy with a waist mounted MG.

Can't help you for APCs but i thought the Brigade VTOL could be the basis for a fair dropship conversion: http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/6mmSF/Br ... 0-104.html It doesn't look so much like it on the brigade website, but has the right "bulk" in real life - there are some more pics in my review a few threads down.

If you're looking for 6mm marines, does that mean you've found 6mm aliens somewhere ?

And for Legion4 - Is the APC above not Pendraken? Must admit i snaffled your pic when i saw it posted a few months back and put it down on my "future projects" list, but had the mini noted as pendraken. On a side note - does anyone have any pics of the pendraken minis (another manufacturer like GZG who seems to think pictures are a surplus to requirements for an online store ! :-)

Thanks L4, but man, i hope they were cheaper when you bought them ! Least expensive new lot is $50 US ! There's also guy selling a whole set of the MM aliens stuff - i think it may reach a fairly high price... I'd look at the pendraken if i were you Bruno :-D

Yep ... I got them for a few dollars each ... ;D
