Mantic Undead Zombies

Received these Mantic Undead Zombies yesterday -


I chose the Zombie Horde and received 60 of the blighters, they look fine to me but they are the first plastic models I have ever purchased so nothing to really compare against. I am hoping to utilise some in my modern day setting.

The one small gripe I have is that there are 20 sprue's but all exactly the same, is this normal as I wasn't expecting this amount of duplication ?


Here's a closer look at the sprue -




And the other way round -



Hopefully this will give a feel of what you get and I do know they are on ebay at the minute for about £16 (post Free) for 60 ( I paid £23 from Wayland Games).

    I was hoping to use some in my modern day setting yes, i thought it was a quick and cheap way of getting some zeds on the table. Looking at the selection i might get about 10 good different ones out of it.
    My own fault really i shouldn't impulse buy without more research !

    Buy the other plastic ones from Wargames factory or Ebay, a little small and the detail could be better but they are cheap and I ended up with two boxes of them and they do the job on price.

    I can't find a dealer with the Wargames Factory Zombies in stock in the UK and i am reluctant to purchase direct from the US. Any ideas ?

    Thanks for the tip, registered there and have two suppliers in the UK to try and some good advice on not mixing these but trying something else.
    Cheers

    The zombie market has some beautiful figures but some of them can cost £2.00 upwards each but their are really nice ones from Tengu models,studio miniatures and cold war miniatures.

    Cost is a nightmare I will be treating myself next weekend at SELWG to a few bits and pieces.
