Sometimes there are things you want but that nobody makes. Sometimes you just want variety.
I had some 'visions' in my head of a Dictator and his staff, but nobody made them. I also wanted to look a bit farther afield to see if I could integrate unexpected miniatures into my games.
Did I succeed? You be the judge. |

Savage I liked the Barbarians range, but I don't 'do' fantasy. I figured I'd try a few for CoZo, and I think they turned out well.
I removed his knife, and reshaped his axe. I rearmed him with an uzi, and dressed him in a denim vest. Base figure Barbarian 0112
|
Savage I removed this figure's sword & shield, and replaced them with a pistol & prybar. I also added a denim vest pattrned after those on the Bikers. Base figure Barbarian 0090
|  |
 | Savage I removed his bow and gave him pistols. I added a baseball cap and sunglasses. Base figure Barbarian 0103
|
Savage I removed his bow, and gave him a knife, uzi, and sunglasses. 2 pistols would have worked, too. Base figure Barbarian 0104 |  |
 | Savage I replaced his sword with a chainsaw. It seemed perfect, so I left it. Base figure Barbarian 0118
|
Babe with guns I always felt this figure had good potential, but I never liked the results I got changing her head. I chose instead to replace her head with one from 0011. I turned it to the side and added longer hair. Her hands were replaced with pistol hands from the command pack. Base figure 0038 |  |
 | Female Trooper The conversion above left me with a body and a head. I combined them, adding long hair again. Turning the face forward makes a big change. Base figure 0011 |

Dictator I wanted a cheerier Dictator to charm the masses: He has a cheery smile, a friendly wave, and he wears his hat at a jaunty angle! Base figure 0053 |  |
 | Dictator's Flunky Whether he's a gofer, or in charge of crushing the opposition, he is a pefect example of the 'Master Race'... sort of.
I wanted a scrawny, weak, sinister type to be the second in command for the Great Man. Base figure 0081 |
Dictator's Aide Somebody needs to keep track of his appointments! Her suit had a good line for a 40's-cut uniform. I added the details with milliput, and changed her hair. Base figure 0011 |  |
 | Guard/Police NCO I trimmed away his shorts, and added uniform details to the figure. I am not altogether happy with him, as he is so bulky that he looks a bit deformed. The figure doesn't look as 'neckless' as the picture, and his hat isn't askew, honest! Base figure 0048 |
Police/Guard Intended as a guard for my Tinpot Dictator, she would enhance any police squad. I just added the uniform with milliput. Base figure 0066 |  |
 | Police/Guard Companion to the figure above: I trimmed away any fringes, etc. and added the uniform with milliput. I cut her gun down into a pistol and replaced her arm so she was in a firing pose. Base figure 0068 |
Grenadier I removed his MAR and repositioned his arms. I then added the MAR slung on his neck. Figure 0011 is also suitable for this conversion. Base figure 0434 |  |
 | Tech Trooper Just a plastic trooper with command arms, but I liked the MAR slung around his neck. Base figure Plastic Trooper |
Gangsta I never felt 0074 was a good choice for conversions, because his arms are folded. em4's arms changed my mind: These are from the command pack, but I have used the heavy weapons arms as well. They really do change the look of the figure. The cap is made from milliput. Base figure 0074 |  |
