Hooded Cultists
« on: April 30, 2014, 10:31:37 AM »
Hi

Can anyone point me to any Hooded Cultists apart from these guys ?

http://pulpfigures.com/products/view/48
and
http://pulpfigures.com/products/view/60

I like the figures, but coming from the US a combination of air mail, VAT and  Post Office surcharge make them unaffordable  :-[

Any suggestions for some based in the UK ?

TIA

Pete

I can highly recommend Mason's Minions.  Or are they Myrmidons?

While I have perverted them to Pulp, they remain nefarious.  And, ...familial...

You can also try this old link, thanks Dolmot, which still seems to work, HERE:

Oh, and the Pulp Figures themselves are available in the EU (so no customs duties or Post Office collection fees when sent to the UK) from Miniaturicum:

Well guessed that man!
I did indeed inform vsfguthroth that I had a set of my Cultists left from the first run of castings.

He seems to approve and decided to take me up on the offer.
 :D

Thanks for the recommendation, Valerik.
I am glad that you like them.

Here are a couple of sets painted up by einarolafsson, who can paint a darn sight better than I can.





















Just in case anyone else wants any, as I will be doing a second run of that mould soon, along with all the stuff that I have been working on since.

See here for details of that stuff:

Send me a PM if you are interested in anything.
 :D

Hi

I have just told Mason that I can't take his figures at the moment,   :-[ so I suggest that anyone else who wants some should contact him.

These guys are pretty nice.  Not totally hooded but easily could be.  Weapins change would be easy too!

No worries, Pete, I have just contacted the next fella on the 'list' and given him the option.

My first Cult, The Order of the Purple-headed Worm, consists of quite a few different manufacturers.
Uncle Mikes Worldwide, Artizan Designs and Pulp Figures are all in there, along with a Westwind Maniac and a sacrifice in the form of a Foundry Maid Marian (without legs!).





This provides a very stereotypical 'Hooded' cult, whereas my own figures are intentionally more multi-use, and are suitable for other options like Old West bandits or lynch mob, VBCW (or VSF) civilians, Post Apoc gangers and, of course, as cultists.

Black Cat Bases...

http://blackcatbases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=437_467&sort=20a&page=1

The old WOTC D&D miniatures pre-paints had a few...

Cultist of the Dragon
Blood of Vol Cultist
Blood of Vol Fanatic
Snaketounge Cultist

I have 3 that came from a set that I can't find online now...may be closer to 25mm, but one has a torch and two have knives. One of the two knife wielders is throwing back his head manically. They were likely BTD or a very small British company.
