Who makes Nosferatu style vampires?
« on: 18 December 2022, 08:58:21 PM »
What companies make 28mm vampire models in the style of the classic Nosferatu film vampire? I know Reaper has one or two options, but there must be others?

Heresy minis do one. It's one of the variant heads on that Vampire mini.

Was gonna say Westwind, but Cubs beat me to it.

There's also a pack in the Dracula's America range called 'Red Hand Coven.' It has three figures, two look kind of like vampire gunslingers but the third has a Nosferatu look about him.

Oh yeah, here we go. I didn't think of that at all.

Hayland Terrain now have the Studio Miniatures horror character range including The Vampyr, though the range is on the small side of 28mm.


Mirliton have a very nice 80s Grenadier Vampire set although the Dracula cape over Nosferatu coat is an odd choice, definitely smaller in 25mm scale but the swishing cloak version is quite tall.


I've been tempted to kitbash with a plastic Mantic Ghoul head and a body from a 28mm historical or suitable fantasy range for a Nosferatu type from any era.

Craig Oxbow, using the Mantic ghoul heads for nosferatu kitbashes is intriguing. Some of the heads in the Oathmark goblin slaves set would probably also work for donor heads - they even have the sharp teeth and pointed ears. The plastic cowboys by Great Escape Games might provide suitable bodies. I think they have some in long duster coats. Not sure about other potential l sources for bodies (maybe some of the Napoleonic officers in long coats would be suitable).
