Post subject:  WW2 Mini's ?

Hey guys, I'm thinking about giving some WW2 miniatures a go for I've always been quite curious about them. So far all I can find is the Warlord Bolt Action miniatures, which are pretty good by the looks of it. Are there any other wargaming WW2 miniatures? Could you list a few brands below?

Thank's In Advance
Drum

- You can find these in all sorts of scales on Ebay. The cheapest I've seen since they are plastic.

- Same as above. More to choose from in different scales. 2nd cheapest I've found, plastic of course.

- They are in 15mm scale and very popular. I play with my friends every now and then. Expensive.

The Rest that I know of

Right thanks for the input guys, some very interesting makes/models there. I'm going to try a pack of Warlord germans first since my friend has started playing that game.

Warlord Games/Bolt Action have the biggest range and cover pretty much every theatre of the war. They've also just recently bought the range of BEF minis, which gives them a host of early war vehicles and figures too. And they do plastics too.

Artizan Designs have a good 28mm range and are excellent quality too: http://www.artizandesigns.com/catalogue.asp?sub_range=2
CompanyB have a great range of vehicles that are nicely compatible with Bolt Action stuff: http://homepage.mac.com/brentdietrich/c ... decals.htm

There are heaps of them out there in 28mm:

Crusader Miniatures - http://www.crusaderminiatures.com/index.php - great minis.
Offensive Miniatures - http://www.offensiveminiatures.com/index.asp - superb range of US paratroopers and German Fallschirmjaeger
Wargames Foundry - http://www.wargamesfoundry.com/main.asp - expensive but very nice figures
Army Group North - http://www.agnminiatures.com/index.html - vehicles mostly
West Wind Productions - http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/ - 25mm, so a little small but they have a very large range of vehicles and figures.

Eureka Miniatures (http://eurekamin.com.au/index.php?cPath ... 59&sort=3a) do a small but exquisite range of pulp action WWII figures, plus a bit of weird war stuff (which I helped design).

I have minis from all of these companies and they all give excellent service.

Word of warning: Don't go near Black Tree Designs. While they have a huge range of figures and some tempting prices, they will take your money and you'll probably never see the figures. Loads of people have had problems with them, myself included.

Oh some brilliant sites there Dagorlad, thank you very much for them! I'll certainly be getting some stuff off of these sites :D
