I was surprised to find some victorian looking Nosferatu at Grendel Store in Dark Ages Fantasy Line, ugly photo but i think they would look nice painted

Are this all the miniatures from that line they have? This figures are originally from Metal Magic. Some company has re-released most (or all?) of them. Can't remember the name of that company but they're selling the minis bloody cheap.
At least one of the cloaked guys is missing on that picture, because 4 of them are standing in front of me.
Here's one of my trails (http://www.witchfindergeneral.de/miniatures/MMvampire.jpg) to take a photo of some miniatures...

I think the WHOLE line can be found at www.DiscountHobby.com.
You find them in the menu under "Company".
They are now produced from "Mega Miniatures" (Discount Hobby actually) as "Fantasy Multi-Packs" but they're also in the "99 Cent Minatures" bin.
I don't know where it's cheaper when you're adding the postage but you can't get a miniature much cheaper than 99 (US) Cents!

I wish somebody would produce some vampires not dressed in cloak and evening dress. I think it would be nice to see some peasants or civilian types who have been turned and not dressed like everybody is Count Dracula! :?:

Witchfinder General - All the male Vampires are wearing cloaks(with the exception of the Nosferatu) I am hoping to find some Vampires who can be used as servants or recently turned underlings to a Vampire Count.

The female ones will work, but most male vampire figures are stereotypes in opera claoks and suits. It would be nice to see a change.

I still don't understand how an vampire-servant-civilian looks different to a normal civilian.
Howerver, there was a miniature range for the RPG "Vampire - The Maskerade", all the vampires were looking really casual, nothing fantastic at all.


Thanks for the hint, Prof! I'll place an order soon, great!

I see what Malamute is getting at, so why not jsut use a little green stuff and add fangs to your favorite mini.  There are some good ones from all sorts of ranges, jsut add two small strips of green stuff and walla, instant vampire dressed as you want.

WFG,
 no probelm, I just ordered a bunch of the figures.  27 dollars in total. thats alot of 60 cent minis.
