They look a lot better with a nice paint job

The nekkid zombie lady is surprisingly disturbing, though

Not the greatest figures, but certainly a bargain at a dollar apiece and well worth the investment.

As for resistance, it's much easier when your bank account is constantly empty

The deal is back again. I passed the last couple of times, but my resolve is weakening. Can anyone who bought the deal tell me how many repeats they got in the pack?

I'm still working on mine, but I've only seen one dup so far.

I bought the deal the last time it was offered. Some of the figures I received were variants of each other, but in my batch only 2 were actually duplicates. Eight out of the 50 figures were female.

I bought it last time too. I haven't looked at them in a while, but I seem to recall mine being similar to Maniacus. Some variations of each other but only two true duplicates. I don't remember how many were female.

Thanks everyone. The lack of repeats is good and varriations of figures are fine with me. They are a great deal and I think I'll break down and get a set this time. I only wish they were taller. Most of my other zombies are 30mm to 33mm.

You will not notice when they are mixed into the horde. They should fit right in to the normal height variation for your zombie population. Here is my example. The victory force zeds are in there, I promise.

Dead people come in all sizes.

Haven't got the VF zeds yet, and although my horde is at around 400, I will be adding them at some point.

I received my order today. (Quite fast!)

My set had 9 duplicates and broke down 11 female/39 male. There aren't that many of the varriants, so I'd estimate that there are 31 truely different sculpts. All are single part models, no flash and I'd estimate less than 10 have mold lines that need to be reworked.

Also, the VF sale page didn't state it, but you also get 50 25mm round slotta bases too boot.

Not too shabby for $1.13 per model. I'm pretty pleased overall.

It looks gone. I wouldn't worry though, VF have put the deal up three times so far so I'd expect it to come back again before the end of the year. You could always email them and see if they might give you a break.

True enough. I measured the most erect sculpts and they average about 30mm from bottom of foot to the eye, so they actuall scale up pretty well with my core zombies (Horrorclix and Mantic).

Grr I missed it again. LOL it seems like when ever I have the money to do this deal its always after the deal has ended. Hopefully they don't run it again for a month or two so I can get enough together to purchase 2 or 3 of the 50 for $50 deals, my horde is starting to lack, especially next to my survivors, who know out number the zombies.

I'm in the same boat as well old chap, so I emailed those nice people at Victory, and they confirmed that it ended last sunday...

BUT, it will be running again, sometime soon...

So, with that in mind, could whomever see's the deal is back again first PLEASE post on here in plenty of time so that all of us old codgers have enough time to power up our steam powered laptops....

Of course, they would add the new zombies to the pile after I buy my set.
