My parents in law gave me The Forbidden Island for my birthday yesterday, and the idea struck me to look for miniatures to play with instead of the pawns that come with the game.

There's 6 characters:
- a pilot
- a courier
- a diver
- an engineer
- a scout/explorer
- a navigator

So, I've been googling for possible replacements:
someone posted this:


I was thinking of old-fashioned adventurers, like the old fashioned divers with the big Bioshock helmets, an Indiana Jones like scout, etc. Or perhaps something ultra modern. Suggestions? (They would have to be easy to get in Europe, and not too expensive. Preferably unpainted).

PS: somebody even made a fully custom built island:

Awesome! But I can't imagine how to shuffle the tiles and flip them :P
