In terms of the civilians, I've managed to locate the Old Glory Civilians (rather nice ones at that).
!
If I were you I would have a look aty these in the flesh I bought these last year and they are a mixed bag in terms of sculpting, some are fantastic whilst others are decidedly dodgy
I did a review on the horror forum for zombificationm this was a chat with Pappa Midnight:
Hello All, I just received the 3 packs today in the post, As I am working from home..here is a reveiw.
The General Fiugres seem to be from a mixture of sculptors, I am assuming this because of the different styles. Size wise they are Road Kill size with the odd exception (I will pick these out as I go). Those that to me could be zombies I will put a Z
Pack One
Woman in pleated skirt and jacket carrying case - OK, ankles a bit thick
Man in leather Bomber jacket, good pose in aggressive stance with arm out-could put weapon in hand
Film Camera Man - look great with combat trousers and short jacket, baseball cap and droopy tash - straight out of a Nam film (slightly bigger than other two)
Girl with Afro walking pose, again good survivor though the hands would be too fragile to drill and put a weapon in.Z.
Camera Man, a bit thin this figure though in proportion, nice pose though
Drunk in 3/4 length coat and battered top hat with bottle - beautiful figure, would fit any Victorian/wild west range could be a Z
Man with Mobile phone looking at watch, funny stance, legs dont look right
Female News reporter, A thin figure though not too bad
Kid with football - Naff, enough said
Kid with arm raised - basic could be Z
Pack TWO
Man holding arm out as if hailing a bus, nice pose
Teenage girl in gym skirt thingy, thin sculpt
Woman with hands up - looks a bit butch could be Z
Man with Backpack - heroic stance with hand positions could be armed with pistol or hand weapon
Woman with pram - looks a bit of a bloater - head a bit small, pram crude and baby naff
Woman in summer dress with hat and handbag - OK
Man with hands up could be Z
Woman in trouser suit and hair in bun with mobile phone - thin but nice figure
Kid on skate board - not a good sculpt
Kid with bobble hat and holding bear - think it should be part of woman holding hand - bit monkey like pose
Pack Three
Jogger with head phne -OK
Woman with suitcase - thin but nice figure
Fat old bearded bloke with baeball cap hands in pocket - OK
Woman in floor length gown, hair tied up, nice sculpt though another thin one - would fit Victorian/wild west or even a Vampire
Man walking in suit - very nice sculpt could be a Z
Man in suit with brolly and brief case with bowler hat - Dire figure-I will swap head and cut off brolly and case -Z
Little girl with Balloon and Ice cream - ok
Old woman in long skirt and stick - agian at home in wild west - big old bird
Man running in terror - definate panicing survivor, only fault no detail on jacket
Man in wheel chair - could have been good "xavier" but the wheels are poorly cast
Well that it out of thirty figures I would say
12 are very good (the thinner poses I havent seen before from westwind, these would fit with Hasslefree of which there are 6 though a bit taller) (two points)
9 are OK a bit crude in areas but useful poses (1 point)
9 are crappy though you could do something with them - the kids are dire of which there are 4, wheel chair man could be fixed up with some work but pram, fat old woman and bloke with bowler hat are crap. (0 points)
They are a nice rnage but as in pack you get good and bad in each range I will score each pack based on above
Pack 1 - 14 points
Pack 2 - 10 points
Pack 3 - 9 points
These are of course my views and prejudices based on my limited painting and modelling skill
