Title: Who makes COC beasties in 28mm?
Post by: richarDISNEY on 12 January 2010, 06:21:04 PM
Well...  The title says it all...
I know Uncle Mike and RAFM.... 

Who else?
I am interested in seeing lots of different types of beasties....

Thanks!

Reaper has, in their huge catalog, a number of Cthulhu-esque creatures.

Try various search terms on their website, a search simply for 'cthulhu' doesn't turn up anything useful, really.

Mirliton do the old Grenadier Nightmares range which are fantastic

- eM-4 has Metal Magic's old Dunwich detectives and monsters.
- Mirliton has Grenadier's CoC (later renamed to Nightmares) minis. Not all of them available yet, though.
- From Reaper, check 02868 Eldritch Demon, 50039 Gug and maybe anything with "Bathalian" in its title.

Those, with good old RAFM, are possibly your best sources for canonical cosmic horrors. For more generic pulp/horror models such as zombies, mummies, vampires, cultists, investigators, civilians etc. there are many more alternatives. If you're interested in those too then I'll put a few ideas to another post.

Workshop horrors make nice beasties

Pardulon screamers are nice too (Heresy grubs in this pic as well)

Not strictly CoC but fit the theme.

:'( Now I'm depressed.

But then I simply remember my favourite things (http://eurekamin.com.au/gallery.php?g2_itemId=1575), and then I don't feel so bad. (shop (http://eurekamin.com.au/index.php?cPath=87_126_151))

Fenryll has this rather nice beastie:

I'd also suggest looking at Heresy Miniatures demons and undead

Helldorado has a demon of flesh that reminds of the beastie in "From Beyond".

Reaper has a fine Gug monster

HLBS have this in the 40mm range:

Heroclix did some Deep Ones and an Avatar of Cthulhu

And Rattrap/Brigade have some very nice hybrids.

Monolith has nice scenery.

The Heroclix range also has a shoggoth (it's a bit too pink though, definitely needs a repaint), and R'lyeh Guardians (mini-Cthulhus, essentially, about 2" tall).

The Monsterpocalypse range has the Lords of Cthul faction - a couple of the minis from that would make reasonable CoC monsters.

All easy to rebase too - just prise the prepaints off the base with a craft knife.

onebigriver - I'm glad you didn't show a piccy of the Gug.  It seems to bring out the worst in people  :D

And don't forget the D&D plastic figures - some of those work pretty well.

  lol TBH I just couldn't face the Reaper figure finder, but I'm sure Freud would have had a field day analysing Lovecraft about that particular beastie!

White Knight at some point is planning to do a Cthulhu showcase over on Frothers. In the meantime the Fishmen showcase is worth a peek for pure Deep Ones and other maritime monstrosities.

Trollforged have some fishmen:

I know that someone has used these (for deep ones):

http://wyrd-games.net/shop/product.php?productid=16217&cat=261&page=1

But I'm not so sure.

This may make a large deep one/small dagon (36mm)

I like that! Not sure I'd pay six quid for it though.
