I'm getting ready to play my 1st HERO game next weekend, set in a modern 'urban fantasy'-type setting. Any ideas on prepainted minis for a modern setting? Is anyone even making these, or is it all fantasy & sci-fi?
Wizkids Heroclix games are a good source of gangsters, thugs, police and SWAT officers. They're usually considered cheap cannon-fodder figures, so it's easy to get large numbers of them on ebay inexpensively.
Some of the best are:
gotham policeman
Metropolis SCU
SWAT officer
SWAT heavy weapons
SWAT specialist
thug
criminal
lackey
