I'm looking for mech mini's not the anime style but more like the Dream Pod 9 or Cav and Battletech stuff. Any and all links of info on companies will help a ton.
We're trying our own rules system and we want Mech and everything else is going to be anything 1/72 scale mini's.
Thanks for your time and help.

Any reason why you don't just use CAV or Battletech minis?

How big do you want your robots compared to the 1/72 scale human figures? A mech could be human size or could be hundreds of feet tall, like a Titan.

If you like DP9's Heavy Gear minis but want something larger, you can often find the RAFM minis on eBay. I think they'd be close to 1/72.

Working on someting you'll either love or hate. Hopefully to be revealed by November.
Play the games that make you happy. |

Some MW: DA mechs (larger collectiable klicktech Battletech) are great for Killa Kan conversions, either in whole or part:
Note left arm weapon is ideal for mowing humies, all these miniatures are killa kan size.

Nothing says power klaw like a big kultivata, the autocanon isnt bad either

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.
It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. |

Talon Games's Rogue Legion line has lots of cool mechs:
http://www.talon-games.com/roguelegion/rlgallery.html
There are minis/models available for the VOTOMS series, which was the blatantly obvious inspiration for Heavy Gear's style.
There's a board game called Steel Warriors, I think, which had lots of plastic mechs with lots of interchangeable weapons, which you can still find on occasion.
Let's see, what else...
