I’d like to tap into the collective knowledge of “The Board” for any suggestions for 3rd party Tallarn type Heroic minis. Just the heads or complete figures. I’ll be converting them into Vehicle crews sometal figures may be harder to work with.
All suggestions welcome and it’ll be great if you could pop a link onto this thread.
Cheers

Maxmini and Mad Robot have the head swaps: maxminimad robotMad Robot is US based so there might be import tax as well. Maxmini stuff can be found on ebay as well I think..

Cheers Chem, I’ll put those type of heads on plastic Cadian or maybe Catachan bodies but I’d rather use a full Tallarn looking body. Any ideas if they exist anywhere ? Forgeworld used to do do some snipers and other stuff and I picked up some of the knock off stuff from China. I basically need figures that could fill the positions of Vehicle Commander and Weapon Operators. A bit like where they are in th else pictures.

I've been looking into getting some tallarn looking dudes to use as ratlings for a while now.. and I haven't been able to come up with anything other than what has been mentioned here.
Although I did consider using Anvil Industries greatcoat parts: to make them look a little less like Cadians with a headdress. Maybe greenstuff a sash of sorts and call it a day.
Or perhaps the old high elf archer torsos + greatcoat legs. But I don't think GW sells those archers anymore.

I may be imagining it but did GW make some Imperial Guard casualty models ? And was one of them a dead Tallarn lying on his back with his arms outstretched ?

I remember the Catachan metal models that were supposed to sit on a tank.
Anyway all of that is probably out of production. You'd be better off trying to get someone with a 3d printer to make the torso/ body for you. Some companies have this service, but imagining it will be a bit expensive to start with.
Nice Goliath by the way.

I knew I’d seen a Brown Bread Tallarn Geezer somwhere ... And guess who’s got one ... MAJOR DOWNER !!! I google Dead Tallarn Model and a picture from IGMB came up from one of his threads. Anyway, here’s a couple pics of the model in question. I need one to use as a mould fo r a green stuff recast into a Tallarn Gunner firing from th prone position. Will anyone lend me or sell me one ? ANYONE !!!

Just saw these torsos they might be what you're looking for. A bit pricey though.
