I’m looking for a large amount of 25-28 mm soldier miniatures to fill out an army that I’m building. Since I’m a student, I’m trying to keep the price down. I’m not really picky about their appearance; any sort of WWII, modern, or sci-fi soldier should fit. Heck, I’m willing to use old toy soldiers to keep the price down if I can find them. Do you know of places that are good for finding affordable bulk soldiers?

Thanks!

What about plastic EM4 figs for Combat Zone? Tin Dictator carries the line here in the US.

If you want cheap, drop down to 1/72 plastics. Usually 50 to a box for $15.

Try Ebay. www.leadanddice.com has the different listings sorted out by period, manufacturer and scale.
