The pictures were there for me on all of your links except number 2.

Sorry, I maybe didn't explain myself very well;

There are 4 models in a pack, I assume that each one is different, like westwinds other packs.

Cheers

Yes there are four different figures, two slayers, one vampire and a vampire acolyte. Be warned though they are not by the same sculptor the other packs in the Gothic Horror range.

All the Antagonists packs were done by Bob Naismith. They stand taller than the original figures and in my opinion do not have as much character and are not such good figures.

I purchased some of the Antagonists unseen and regretted it. I still have them in the lead pile. If you want them they are yours for free.

If OSR doesn't want them could we purloin them for the school club ?

Flashman, the link was very useful.

Nick, I see what you mean. I don't particularly like them either.

The large monk may be useful, but I think there are better models available else where?


The Sikh chap 2nd from the right I'd consider using for pulp games.

In summary I'm not a fan, they don't fit in with the character of the rest of the Westwind stuff. Thanks for the offer though Nick.

Cheers

PS did you see Nosferatu the Vampyre is on iplayer?

[Flashman14]

I've got a few of these painted up ...

[Conquistador]

Um, "interesting..." but not all that enticing.

The rules - if I remember correctly - these were the rules that need a great deal of "editing" to understand, correct?

Gracias,

Glenn

Of course you can Gary, drop me a PM.

Hmmmm.

Having just painted a load of West Wind stuff I'm afraid I have to disagree with the Venerable Malamute, and say that these figures look quite a lot better to me.

In fact I'm really quite tempted by them, especially the second set, although the second guy in the first set would make an excellent Space Pope and save me doing a conversion.

I take the point that they are a completely different style to the rest of the range, but I think its the way that these ones seem to have actually been finished that appeals to me...

From oldskoolrebel's pics...  top one, third fig. 
I have this pack and I was surprised to find his beard sticks STRAIGHT out!  Kinda odd...

There are some good figs in those packs, and some lulus ....

I'm in the process of converting/painting the figures on either end as ghouls for my forthcoming Nosferatu warband.

I also ordered the pack unseen and used the sword-wielding vampire as my head Romanian vampire. The model isn't spectacular but, since I had it in my possession, I decided to use it rather than to buy something else. I wish I knew about these photos back then. 

Pack #5 seems pretty good to me.
