So there's this new game coming out, Gaslands from Osprey (the folks who do Frostgrave) and I've always wanted to take hotwheels and glue guns to 'em. I found a site that has some 20mm (about 1:64 scale, or reasonable match up for Hot Wheels) bikes and accessories (Ramshackle Games), but was wondering if y'all might have any thoughts on other resources, sites or stuff I should consider before I get seriously underway.

Anyone have any experience here? I know dakka doesn't have too many folks into wee minis, but I thought I'd see what ideas y'all might have, or if there are other resources online that might help. I've also posted something similar-ish on http://www.lead-adventure.de, since they have all sorts of folks there. I've never found the miniatures page too helpful (http://theminiaturespage.com/), but maybe I could try there too?

Time to start hoarding my son's little cars!!

Well, linked on their own site there is this:

Going to this site will pretty much cover anything you want:

Inside this site, you can kit out pretty much anything with this link:

Road Kill the game deserves some honorable mention:

If you need anything else... you are awfully picky.

Wow... That's... a lot of stuff that my google fu utterly failed me on!

Those Jada battlemachines are fantastic, but it looks like you can't buy 'em from the site. I found a few online, looks like they run about $20 or so. I might have to save my pennies, they're pretty darn cool looking!

I play...

Sigh.
