Elessarion Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 So I thought I'd ask you lovely people if you could help me out with a challenge my friend has presented me with. He plays Dead Man's Hand on occasion, and whilst he has plenty of mounted cowboys, he does not have any horses in his livery stable. He's trying to find 28mm standing horses (with no saddle, bridle, etc) that he can base up and either stand in the stalls or out in the corrals. We're both stumped - we can find dead horses, standing horses with tack, running horses with tack, running horses with no tack, armoured horses....you get the point. If anyone knows a good place to find these then I would be very grateful! P.S. We're in the UK so whilst I am sure he's not opposed to buying overseas, the delivery/import costs will most likely be too much for something that's essentially just for fluff.

mattspooner Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Try ebob miniatures ---------- Post added at 12:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ---------- Nope. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratsmitglied Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Has he thought about getting a pegasus or unicorn figure and doing some converting - there are plenty of both of these around without any trappings, and the pegasus usually need only the connecting points for the wings filled and unicorns the horn cut off... Those I've seen are typically in running or rearing poses though. Eureka miniatures do appear to make horses as well... http://eurekamin.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=1664 http://eurekamin.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=1663 Edited January 23, 2014 by Ratsmitglied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borzag Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Some of my friends have had good success using horses from the toy sets at supermarkets. They're a bit bigger than 28mm, but have you seen a real horse? Those things are stupid huge. They fit extremely well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taozenrat Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Ebobminiatures has some great options. Sadly it seems all the unbridled, tackless horses all require the purchase of a commercial license for reproduction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenton Crack Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 These might be what you are looking for, as they have no saddles: http://www.blackscorpionminiatures.com/product_info.php?cPath=28&products_id=93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessarion Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Thank you all for the suggestions! The ones on Ebob would be perfect if you didn't have to buy the licence with them sadly. Fenton, those do look pretty good! I'll send him the link over. Again thanks all for the help.
