Zombies would be a really welcome addition - nothing too outlandish, just 5 ordinary zombies that can be given a lot of variety with paintjobs alone. Man, I'm excited about that one.

If you're looking for a quick way to play the scenario, the board game Zombies!!! actually has a very good scale. I just opened the box yesterday and thought "Wait a sec...are the 20mm?". They aren't on the same level sculptwise, but you can get whole bags of them for cheap.

Yes, the Zombies!!! are 1/72-ish and work great with 20mm Elhiem and Dark Future minis, and other 1/72s.  I have hundreds of them painted up; sadly the photos are lost on some image hosting service that dramatically changed its terms, grr. 

In general Elhiem's figures are great, I have many of them in my survivors but I have not ordered any of their zombies since I am pretty wealthy in those plastic figures.

I also used 15mm Rebel Minis for teenage zombies and armed survivors.

n.b. the Hannah Montana Mall Madness game works great in this scale!

(matches many toy cars better than 28mm figures, there's no existing 20mm Mad Max range, etc.)
Wonder how Stan Johansen feels about this? They have had a 20mm Post Apoc/Mad Max mini line for years. Possible to say decades.

He’s going to end up doing his entire Future Wars range in 20mm isn’t he?  ;)

That’ll be the third time  :)
Twice in 28mm, and then 3red time if he does in 15mm?

The original series was produced by Grenadier in 28mm. After Grenadier went bankrupt, Mr Copplestone redid many of the sculpts in 28mm (1st), now it seems we get some sculpts done in 20mm (2nd). And I personally would even buy them again if he did them in 15mm, too!

HA thank you. I needed the specifics. I was off.
But with the above info, if he did in 15mm that would be 3 scales but 4 time sculpted right?
28x1, 28x1, 20x1 and then 15x1

Indeed...but we should wait until the 20mm line is finished before we start to beg for yet another reincarnation! lol

....is it a 28mm model next to the 20s or a 20mm model next to some 15s...

I hope so much for the latter!
