Post-Apocalyptic Vehicles

[krayt dragon]

Years ago (\'93-\'96) I purchased a 25mm miniature of a post-apocalyptic buggy. The model consisted of a plaster vehicle body with white metal bits for the exposed engine, canopy cover, axles and wheels, and guns. it was a very Mad Max/Road Warrior looking dune buggy thing, it was an awesome model, but somewhere along the way it got misplaced and disappeared.

I can\'t remember the name of the company that produced it, or the line it came from -- I know it came from a line of similar models. I have a strong feeling it was not any of the major companies, but rather a smaller independent.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? 25mm scale, plaster body, white metal bits, independent company, post-apocalyptic theme. It was available around the time that GW released Dark Future and Battle Cars.

If anyone could help me remember the name, or track down the company or someone who still had some of these, I would be eternally grateful. If anyone knows of any companies currently producing decent 25mm scale mad max style vehicles, I\'d appreciate hearing about those as well.

Plaster or resin? Resin makes more sense. Maybe it\'s Armorcast?

Sounds similar to a buggy from Grenadier\'s Future Warriors line. The link is below to see if this is it.

Grenadier\'s gone, but EM4 and Nemo miniatures, both bought the molds. EM4\'s still around, but I think Nemo is gone. EM4 has the minis from the line, but not the vehicles. I\'m not sure if anyone is selling the vehicles now, but they do show up on eBay from time to time.

Try Old Crow as well. They make some reet cool buggies and trucks.

Cheap as chips as well - £6 each!

I\'ve got the Old Crow vehicles (the top two there)....they are fantastically cast! Not a single air bubble anywhere.

They are just a smidge small, but excellent looking! I\'ve got the top one mostly painted.

Another very cool looking set of vehicles can be found here...

AWESOME!!! That is it! Thank you so much, this has been driving me crazy for the last month and a half.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions as well, I love the Old Crow stuff, and I think I\'m about to lose a paycheck to Ramshackle Games. Those are some awesome minis.

Urban Mammoth has some pretty swoopy vehicles under the Junkers faction of their Void line.
