Reaper also makes a pre-painted plastic version of the purple worm.  It's about $20.00 cheaper too.  I have it and it's very nice.  It does not come with the tail piece.



If you want the tailpiece, maybe try ordering 03009: Purple Worm ($27.49 - http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/Worm/sku-down/03009) or P03009B: Tail  ($3.72) from the boneyard.  Here's the pic:



Beats me why anyone would buy the $27.49 worm when they could buy the pieces separately for less combined -- unless Michael Brower's 20018: Great Worm ($6.99) head is of a different size than his head of 03009: Purple Worm ($27.49).  But they certainly look to be the same sculpt.  Does anyone know if they are, or not?  Perhaps the more expensive one is lead, while the other is prepainted plastic?

A "Baby Worm" can be found in 14041: Familiars I(5) ($6.99) or as boneyard piece P14041A: Baby Worm  ($1.65), but it has "legs" (http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/worm/sku-down/14041):



Speaking of worms, the 03023: Worm Corpse ($6.99) (http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/worm/sku-down/03023) is a gem:



Imagine that coming at you when you're looking for evidence at a graveyard at night!  Yeeeuck!

Do you think the Mutant Critters from Taban will fit?

Looking at Matakishi's site tonight I came across the bileworms produced by Gribbly Miniatures:






Vilespawn is worth a look too.

I've got the bileworms from GM. They're quite nice, but I still haven't gotten around to painting or basing them for that matter. They're definitely big enough to gobble up a number of poor souls each though.

Otherworld has a nice (if small) range of slimey dungeon dwelling scum.
A giant slug

Two carrion crawlers labeled as corpse scavengers (in my opinion the best carrion crawlers ever sculpted)


Slimes, oozes, and puddings
Lets face it, you can't get much slimier than actual slimes!


And some lovely giant leeches!  ;D

Wow, these are great, guys!
When the thread peters out, what say we have a vote for the best Glaaki candidate, and I enter that on the Be Wary Quiet, We Hunting Great Old Ones thread (for no points for me of course)?  :)
