Flashpoint Miniaures

After years of absence they are back and trading again:
Flashpoint Miniatures make a great range of figures for 15mm gaming Vietnam and Modern Middle East.
95% of all my Vietnam figures are from FPM and they have great character and dynamic poses.

I met Jimmi the new owner, at CanCon and was immediately struck by his enthusiasm for his line and the projects he has for it.  He is  now reinvigorating the company website (here: http://flashpoint-miniatures.com/) and is planning to get some new rules out in the next year or so.  Excellent!

  1. They seem to have interesting poses but appear to be a little misshapen, compared to say Rebel Minis/Peter Pig. Perhaps it is just the store photos. Could you perhaps photograph some of your own?

    1. There are a bunch of mine here at the blog, have a look here:

      They aren't misshapen at all, rather they are in very dynamic poses including running hunched over under fire. The detail on them is great - my problem is trying to pick it all out in 15mm!

  2. I picked up several of their Vietnam civvies myself. The Sampan is lovely!
