I saw this kickstarter project had achieved its funding goals and thought some of you might be interested. It's a 28mm skirmish game called Across The Dead Earth and part of the project involves producing a set of miniatures, some of which would be suitable for T2k.
I have no idea how long it will take them to achieve series production of the minis but it's worth keeping an eye out for them.

I've been using Gripping Beast Mo-Fo for my mini's for a while now. But these look good too!

Good recommendation Stormlion :)
I had a quick look at Gripping Beast and those Falklands War Argentine figures could be useful for a few European armies as well, i.e. the Belgians and the Dutch who both used US steel helmets and the FAL & MAG58 weapons.

I'm using the Army Rangers for Morrow Team members at the moment and some have been given a Brown/Tan scheme that does a good job for filling in for Fallout NCR Troopers for a Fallout campaign me and some friends are playing.

There's actually a good bit of modern/Cold War miniatures production going on these days. There's a page on the Ambush Alley Games site with a list of manufacturers, broken down by scale:

You have my attention! I've just returned to Fallout: New Vegas after completing it and all the DLC a couple of years ago. A bunch of excellent mods have reached full maturity and I wanted to try them out so I reinstalled the game a couple of weeks ago. I can't believe I never thought of converting FNV to a tabletop RPG. What a great idea!

More of a wargame really, were just using Fallout Warfare rules with new rules for the different weapons. I guess you could use them for a tabletop RPG...

This guy in Russia makes them.
