Oh, if only they had an European Distributor or something!

Those are more than just perfect for my current project!

Half my orders are from Europe and the UK.

Its a fair question that I get asked a lot! (I do like to point out that Wizards of the Coast doesn't just make wizards...)  ;D

Anyhow, our first generation of zombies really came out when there were almost none on the market and I wanted some modern, non-weapon carrying zeds to game with. Now, everyone makes zombies left right and center! I never thought I would ever do anything but zombies, but they sold really well, gave me the bug to grow the company and because I am a little scattered in my gaming interests, the opportunity to explore some other things that there aren't much of on the market.
I have some good ideas for zombies that aren't out there yet but I keep getting distracted by shiny! "Don't..stop...thinkin' about the shiny... don't stop...doin what you do" (apologies to Fleetwood Mac)

So Headzombie a little question is there a chance that there'll come more aliens in the future? I love their style and 'Space-operaness', and I can't think of any other similar models apart from maybe Darkson's AE Bounty which hasn't arrived yet.

Absolutely. Probably the next ones not until the summer though.

Oh, beautiful. They certainly look awesome. Definitely something to add to my infinitely-growing 'wants list.'

I've been on the look out for some non-setting-specific aliens to populate a Rogue Trader frontier world space port for a while, and its surprising how few are out there (Black Scorpion's aliens are the only ones I've really found that I liked, and there's a few upcoming from Reaper by the looks of it) so these will be most excellent  :)

Well mine have just arrived this morning, and very nice they are too! I'll try and get some pictures together of the unpreped casts and possibily some comparison shots.

EDIT: now got some photos together -


I chose a marine as well, pretty much everyone knows what they look like and how big they are, as you can see they're nice casts and scale well.

Oh--I like those.  I'll have to pick some up when I get through my back log.  I really like that they aren't all armed to the teeth (or whatever aliens have) with gigantic guns.  Nice to see some alien civilian and support figures.

Mine arrived on 2/1 as well. Lovely minis. They'll be waiting for me when I finish my Tyranid army.

Thanks for the pic Dijit! They look good next to the GW Marine, so I reckon they will be perfect next to my usual Copplestone, Heresy, Hasslefree etc. After all, how big is an alien?

Did you order from the US and if so what was the shipping cost like? Denmark's not too far from England, after all ;)

Yeah i ordered from the US, and shipping was 10 dollars, so not bad at all.
They also match very nicely against my EM4 and Urban War minis

Great news! EM4 and Copplestone are virtually identical in size (well, they would be  ::) ) so that's good news. Thanks for the reply :D
