Still looking around for some Stalker/post appocalypse figures,.
Evolution makes a few, ANT, Maim and the Mig Futuristic Russian Tanker also. There is that Takom chem suit guy as well.

Colorado Miniatures doesn't stock them and last I checked my go to guy Chris at CRM does not have any.

I have some old DML Swat/SAS figs I can bash, but I'm looking for a US supplier for any/all of the above.

Thoughts?
Thanks
Mike

Mike,

Isn't Live Resin going to do the typical style Soviet gas mask heads? You could put that on any figure for a post-apocalyptic look...

Der Sockelshop in Germany stocks MAIM and STALKER kits. The problem is that shipping is pretty darn expensive. Try eBay, eBay Canada, and eBay UK as well.

Northstar Models in Ukraine has a 54mm "Killzone" and post-apocalyptic figures that are on sale at their website and eBay. I bought from them before and service was very good.

Thanks for the replies gents. Those soviet gas mask heads look great. I will have to keep an eye out for those.
Thanks for the steer Peter, but I'm really hoping to keep this in the states. Postage from Germany is a little steep and in not thrilled about sending cc info to Russia.

I will keep looking.
Mike

I pay Northstar Models with PayPal and not a CC card.

Fieldsofglory in the UK has MAIM STALKER kits and on eBay there's a shop in Australia that sells MAIM STALKER kits.

The head in the middle is definately US. Current issue M50 mask. Pretty sure the one in the foreground is the older M17 missing the filter canister.

Mark,
Your right, the close mask could also be a Czech OM10.
The 1st mask (far left) is a Soviet RSH-4. That what the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. figure wears.

There is this company in Germany that makes a similar STALKER figure.

I've seen those too, thanks.
Not looking at overseas suppliers at this point.

Let me know if you come up with a US source for any of these goodies.

Yes... Yes...
Do I perchance hear the rumblings of a business idea, a "business model" perhaps?
Hummm...

Have you considered the STALKER figure by ANT Miniatures? HobbyEasy in Hong Kong seems to stock it.

Sure, HobbyEasy isn't in the U.S., but many modelers say that they have good service.
