This week I got an early look at the Living Dead Peasants by Fireforge Games. They are some nice looking minis taking undead zombies in a neat direction.

This article includes sprue shots, scale comparison photos and pictures of unpainted minis.

Thanks for sharing. Plenty of parts on the sprue ( Renedra? ), but the clothes look a bit too clean for me, like they died only a couple of hours ago. Was exited when they announced it, but not sure I'm going to buy a whole set. Probably will get me a sprue for the parts...

I am thinking about buying them and I find your review quite informative.
Thanks

Nice review. These (oddly) are the kit that I think helped push the Kickstarter to completion. Loads of people/gamers need zombies or mindless ravenous hordes. A quality (yet simple) nice plastic kit for dead peasants is a brilliant idea.

Something tells me these will be appearing everywhere. I know I want at least one box.

Thanks for the review! I am always looking for armed (living) peasants. How many of these heads/bodies would you say would qualify for a historical peasant rebellion?

They do seem a little fresh for a bunch of corpses, but I suppose it's easier to rip them up a bit via conversions and painting than to "clean up" a really rotten and battered zed.

All those comparison shots and none with a GW zombie? I wonder how they scale up and how cross-compatible the parts might be between kits?

I'm pretty sure they have a living version as well, but those haven't been released yet.

Sprues look very useful especially for conversions. Don't think i would buy a whole box-a sprue off fleabay is more likely to join the bits and bobs pile

You would be right on that one. I believe it was one of their stretch goals.

Nice review! How do they size up with GW zombies?

Sinewgrab · « **Reply #10 on:** September 01, 2019, 04:31:05 PM »

That was going to be my question as well.

I can't speak for the Undead fellers but the basic infantry are GW-scaled/proportioned - however that is in reference to the proper Fantasy miniatures - not the every-increasing scale of AoS.

(Long swordsman on the left is GW)

I think they are absolutely marvellous! I definitely want to get some at some point, but my backlog is too big.

Nice review - thanks! I look forward to receiving mine.

Thanks for the review.

I'm looking forward to getting mine soon (October?) along with the Living Peasants.
