Title: Martians! on the cheap

From the company that brought you Zombies! 

I've been painting up the little buggers this week, and they are looking quite good.  You get 100 martians, for around $30, and it even comes with a free game!  lol  The figures are a big leap ahead from the Zombie figures.  You get three poses, they are very clean and detailed.  I had to remove very little flash from the figures I've painted up.  The plastic is a bit tougher than the Zombie figures as well, when primed it holds paint quite well.  I should have a small squad painted up by this weekend, and will post some before and after photos then.

Too bad they don't have a Bag-O-Martians like their Bag-O-Zombies

I'd say they would work for either 25mm or 28mm.  I think the latter would be better than the former.  When I post pictures on Sunday, I'll include some other figures in for scale.  Perhaps even a ruler.   lol
