Title: Clowns vrs. Zombies
Post by: vaganardi on 06 April 2009, 07:43:09 PM
With the new ATZ firmly in my grubby paws I just had a vision of a mass of zombies attacking a circus. Zombies are the easy part. The question is where to get some good clown figures to play the role of defenders.

Any suggestions?

Throw in a pantomime horse and a couple mimes. You now have the most terrifying miniatures game in the history of mankind.

Dont forget a model of a Honda Civic so the clowns can swarm over the zombie horde. Are Zombies stopped by seltzer water? lol

Surely a monowheel should be the ride of choice for any discerning pagliacci.

Yes the Horror clix Freak show has;
 Clowns cannibal clowns fire eater knife thrower,escape artist fat ladiy carnies fortune teller animal trainer  fan dancer  tattooed man and a ring master as well as zombie ventriloquists, vendor, and  strongman
all good for a circus and pretty cheap now, except for the zeds.

I have some of the Horror clix, which while in some cases loads of fun, also a bit big making mixing and matching of figures a bit off. Also they only have 3 clowns, one missing the back of his skull. I don't want to mix in circus performers yet, that would dilute the purity of Clown vrs Zombie. However, collecting some for latter offerings will work and we can always use more figs to paint.

I will check some of the suggested sites and begin to shop.

Next on the list is terrain options. Paper terrain for tents and vender stalls would work. O-or S-scale plastic kits would be great. Only found a o-scale circus train so far.

Also, does anyone make zombie clowns?
