Anyone know any decent stand-ins for a Bob Agent of Hydra mini?

I know there're some Clix minis, but the detail levels for those are not fantastic.

The closest other I've found is Crossover Miniatures' "Paratroop" Minions, but I don't really want to shell out $50 when I just want a single model.


I'm open to suggestions (even for a good base-model that I could use to convert w/ GS)

Thanks in advance!

Can you post a pic of what you're looking for?

think this is what he is looking for: as to the OP's question, check the Sedition Wars stuff might have armor instead of spandex but might find something that works like the Doc (Bob with a breather mask on?)

Spandex, guns and pouches sounds like GW’s assassins.

Might need some head/arm swaps. I know nothing about the character you are trying to create.

this is Corpsman Morgan Vade from Sedition wars:

Crossover Miniatures is probably your best bet. Specifically, I think Paramilitary Goon Leader with one of the included alternate heads would be pretty close (although Fletch might have a better pose with a little resculpting).

Oh, and all the Paramilitary Goons are available in other, smaller sets of 1-3 miniatures.

Yeah you're not going to beat those Crossover guys.

One more idea for any sort of spandex/skintight figure are sculpting dollies:

Just lop off the generic head and add your down, same with the hands. Glue on some pouches, paint the details and bob's your uncle.

Ah...I missed the Paramilitary goon leader model (just saw the big set of goons).

He should work out perfectly.

EDIT: and then noticed it's out of stock :(

How about this fellow?

Oooo...That is perfect. Thanks, K_K!

Wasn't there a newish pulp/superhero game (probably a kickstarter) that could have something suitable? I remember seeing it once but I wasn't a backer and can't recall the company or the name of the game.
