Don't recall exactly how popular the game VOID was, but it had a decent range of miniatures and vehicles when it was in print... the company that made it has released an updated version (see my post here for details: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/30/369662.page but anyways, about the old miniatures... just head to your FLGS and ask if they have some dusty inventory that they haven't sold in years sitting in a storage room, you'd be surprised at what they might have... I went to my FLGS and asked the owner if I could root through the storage room and found these gems, got a great deal too, $5 per pound of metal and I walked out of there with 20 pounds! He was just glad they were going to a good home and freeing up some space and making a couple bucks off of stuff that would probably never sell... and there are plenty of sales going on ebay and other online vendors...

We used to blow these up with firecrackers...

Havent seen any in a store in ages!

I've got a bunch of VOID stuff I got for a euro a blister at a con years ago. I made them into Enforcers for necromunda. They have some nice models. Perhaps slightly small for 40K, but that's only because everyone in the Imperium is on steroids.

On a similar note, there are alot of very cool minis out there from alt providers. Some of the DUST Tactics and Infinity stuff is awesome enough.

In the UK seaside resort towns there are often these great shops that sell all kinds of beach tat like bucket and spade, float rings and all sorts of cheap toys for the children.

They usually have Chinese rip-offs of Airfix 1/32 scale plastic soldiers, pantographed down to about 1/40 scale. You can buy a bag of 50 for £1 sometimes.

Combat Storm is a set of rules for playing with such figures.
