RATS!
« on: May 19, 2010, 10:15:31 PM »
I need a listing of suppliers of said rodents. All sizes

I know of/remember:

  • Otherworld
  • Pardulon
  • GW (mucho expensive)

And I have a set of the GW plastic oversized rats from that <something>quest board/dungeon crawl game (would like more, if some of you have some to sell).
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

Reaper have some packs, and the dungeons and dragons plastic miniatures has some different ones, too.

I just bought these beauties from Reaper. The integral base is 25mm square of very nicely sculpted cobblestones. The only draw back is that its two figures of the same sculpt.

I've seen these in the metal, the bases are 20mm.

I have the GW giant rats from their plastic Rat Ogres set. I don't like them and there's only six of them.

Reaper - good ones!

I have never seen the rat ogre plastic ones, I think?

EDIT: Ah, saw them now - no they are not very nice....

When I had a huge skaven army, back in the day, I used the Necromunda rats.  I found several packs in a markdown bin and that was all I needed for my unit of 36.  I thought they were far superior to the other sort.

D&D miniatures (prepainted) have two kinds of rat swarms, and at least four different direrats.

Still looking for rodents?  Splintered Light has swarms (they'd be more like mice than rats, or maybe babies) that have a bunch on the base and then 3 or 4 loose rats that could be added to the base or stuck down separately.
