So its official we now live in te Golden Age of plastic minis.

Mantic and War games Factory are churning out cheap cheerful fsntasy and scifi figures. Defiant is doing some cool stuff and the Perry's historical figures are second to none.

And then there's all te cool stuff due on line through kick starter and other micro financing.

So... what projects would excite you?

Two dragons...frolicking...in a meadow.

Four gully dwarves playing a game of bridge.

Well, I am already getting a miniature of Cthulhu (I had been looking for a (affordable) miniature of Cthulhu before the kickstarter, actually...) with the Reaper kickstarter, so maybe some Brotherhood of Steel plastic miniatures? That is my favorite kind of power armour, and I would enjoy building an army from Fallout. Maybe throw in some plastic wastelanders and Enclave, for good measure.

PROPER dark eldar slave girls ...and yes i know there are models out there

A decent looking GW buggy kit.

Maybe some nice shuttlecraft and scifi utility vehicles for scenery use.. (again, i'm sure there's some out there)

succubi mudwrestling just cos...


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also plastic Tallarns.

Plastic Vostroyan Firstborn

Plastic freakin' Stormtroopers!

Night lords... lots of night lords.... Also... some more deathwatch variants.... and maybe even throw in some more upgrade kits like they have for black templars and dark angels. Get a few of those upgrade packs for chapters like... Raven Guard or Imperial Fists or... NIGHT LORDS or... white scars... basically those upgrade packs are amazing and i would love to see more of them... and some night lords...

White Scars and raven guard upgrade pack.

I want bareheaded Scars that look like scaled down and toned down Ogre Kingdom heads.

Full plastic Thousand Sons.

Also full plastic Sisters of Battle.

The end of finecast.

Plastic multi-pose Geiger aliens and Colonial marines. Heck powerloader, drop ship, APC, ALIEN QUEEN, ETC., ETC.

Daleks. Lots of Daleks.

And big warmachines. They don't have to be from any particular setting, they don't have to have a million parts, they don't have to be articulated... they just need to scale well with 28-ish mm minis, and be A) big and B) cool-looking.

Adeptus Mechanicus.

Plastic veterans w/all the options
Plastic stormtroopers.

Failing that i suppose i'd settle for a full plastic kit of the Serenity and her crew.

I've got a box around here somewhere of plastic Daleks and Cybermen from Citadel...

I will continue to theorize that the moment I paint my last Valhallan, there will be a gorgeous multipart plastic kit of them. I think I'd start up IG of almost any flavor if they came out in plastic though.

Aside from that, from GW I'd buy a Warhound Titan or Thunderbolt fighter if they came out in plastic. If a fighter with a similar aesthetic came out I'd be happy with that too!

I would be all over a set of Mad Max-style raiders in plastic. They could be a Necromunda gang or a random kit from one of these other plastic companies, I would love a set of them. Honestly, enough figures to support a Fallout tabletop game would make me ecstatic.

Xeno fortification kits.

Any of the Necron characters and a Royal Court boxed set.

A lot of you guys have some uninspired dream models. Stuff GW is too lazy to make is kind of a dull dream model.

If there was a megaman giftset with miniatures of all the main characters, side characters, and robot masters I'd have one for each franchise (except star force). I don't even need a game for those models.

I have also long dreamed of plastic terrain kits much like GW's without the skulls or inflated prices. Some highly detailed and well-sized terrain features built for gameplay with lots of good, flat surfaces in many themes for many settings would delight me.

Xeno ANY scenery kits..

Satisfying though it is that every battle is on a trashed Imperial planet, there really needs to be more xeno scenery than ork Barricades..

Plastic Steel Legion

Plastic storm troopers and most importantly for me as a Beastmen player, A good figure of Kazark one eye and Taurox the brass bull. Those two would make me die of happines or need new pants at least

Chaos
Multipart Chosen full of options that look like the Chosen in Dark Vengeance.

Tyranids
Dual Biovore/Pyrovore
Dual Zoanthrope/Venomthrope
Dual Tyrant Guard/Hive Guard
Harpy
Harridan

Multi-part Mordheim ruins.

Plastic Sisters of Battle, not a doubt in my mind

After that, would love to field Mordian Iron Guard (painted in suitably bright colors) along with Praetorian Guard

Plastic SoB would be nice... but it's a wild fantasy.

As to other dreams... well Mark and DFG has given me a PAIR of titan size models. <3

DFG in general is making all my wishes and dreams come true really. Amazing plastic kits, incredible detail and prices out of my wildest fantasies.

Plastic Canadians!


Star Wars Stormtroopers.

28mm-scaled civilian vehicles

More alien terrain would certainly be nice.

Scifi Battlefield decorations... techy looking crates, streetlights, billboards, robots, etc

Plastic multi-pose Geiger aliens and Colonial marines. Heck powerloader, drop ship, APC, ALIEN QUEEN, ETC., ETC.

This day one for me. Might be the only way I would do a guard army.

Plastic elysian drop troops, plastic forgeworld style upgrade packs for IG vehicles, plastic hydra flak tank, plastic thunderbolts and more plastic scenery...... Oh and plastic thunderhawk gunhips.

Plastic kit for Eldar jetbike warlocks/farseers.

I'm not sure if it's a winner for 'going the longest without an actual model available', but it's probably a good contender.
