Trying to find minis/parts for chaos miniatures and mutants. Suggestions pls.

[weismonsters]

I am trying to find suitable parts for my chaos army. Could be metal or plastics, i dont mind. Any suggestions for manufacturers who sell suitable products, preferably reasonably cheap, would be welcome.

1) tentacles and similar mutations, small enough for a 28mm human. Tried sculpting some but did not turn out very good so far. Would be nice to find some mass produced ones, perhaps in bendy metal...

2) goat/beastmen heads. Head swaps with beastmen is ok for characters, but for a whole squad its a bit much. So looking for someone who sells heads separately.

3) sheep. Want to make a flock of mutant chaos sheep so i will need good sheep models to base them on.

4) fantasy jesters. Looking for anything like a jester, or possibly juggler. Can have a weapon or unarmed. I found a fair few on Ral Partha webstore, but any suggestions from other manufacturers would be nice.

Reaper has a nice pack of conversion parts:

Onebigriver & I posted almost simultaneously...great minds & all that. Well, you get a look at the pieces here; AND if you follow the link you'll see examples of the pieces in use. They also have packs of angel & devil wings.

I like those broolian, might be good as a scavvy necromunda lot.

Thanks for the suggestions folks. The reaper bits look like the thing. I´ll have to pick them up sometime soon.

The Victoria minis stuff looks nice too, I have been admiring it for a while. I think their beastmen heads look quite futuristic, one is wearing goggles and one smoking a cigar etc, but certainly characterful. As an aside, I was wondering about the arms as replacement for rogue trader plastic arms too. It says they are heroic scale so maybe a abit too big? There are allegedly some female troopers in the pipeline. Maybe they will have smaller arms...

Today I  will have another go at sculpting some mutations. Lets see how it goes...

One option I saw a few years ago was to use parts of the GW Tryranid figures for mutations.  Often bits are available on eBay for reasonable 'ish' prices.
