I managed to find a 1/18 Power Team tank for a good price. It looks very similar to a Chinese PLA Type 99 Main Battle Tank. With some tweaking, I can get it there.
So I went with 1/18 Joy Toy Chinese Military PLA infantryman instead of OpFor. I need to find a moderately priced (not hundreds of dollars) vehicle that would fit the chinese military themes. I've checked ebay and they want $288+ for something like that in 1/18. Fucking nuts.
You did a pretty good job there. I had someone suggest buying G.I. Joe's then trying to see soft good materials over that to get the Insurgent look I'm going for. I'm actually considering it.
Same, man. No luck. I'm desperately trying to find fodder in 1/18 scale to make ISIS/Daesh Insurgents. Found some awesome kitbashed ones on ebay, but at $50 per figure...? I can't justify that.
AWESOME! There is definitely a lack of "badguys" on the 1/18th scale. Would you mind sharing the kitbash formula for the figures and technical? They look like they walked straight off the cast of Black Hawk Down.
I also picked up a Hiyah Predator... for reasons.
Also looking to do something like this...as I've found a reasonably priced humvee. Just waiting on shipping for everything.
I'll just need: the mine thingy on the front, a push bar, a spare tire, some gasoline cans, ammo cans, misc...
Thanks! Feel free to delete this thread. I would have posted there had I found it... but when I use the search it always says "nothing found within perimeters" or something too that effect.
