These look pretty exciting. Good fantasy cultists are gold for their utility over several gaming systems. I reckon these might get pressed into service as terminators for my long mused Torquemada league for Pulp Alley, or as chaos thugs, or Pulp Cthulhu cultists, or 40k Imperial pilgrims, or...

These sound great, I'll be getting a box as they will add even more variety to my Frostgrave figures. I also like how they will be interchangable with the adventurers set, sounds like a win, win for us gamers.

I likes the look of that. Any shots of the models?

Shots of the models will follow soon, they will be the 3ups to start with.

There are 4 undead heads and 3 sets of Undead arms on the frame as well. With these extra bits, you can turn your plastic Soldier or Cultist into a proper Frostgrave Skeleton or Zombie!

Too late; I already zombied up a bunch of 'em...  :D

Still; I'm excited to get my hands on those bad boys; cultists are always in high demand (probably because they tend to drop like flies whenever some hero type shows up ;) ) and plastic multipart ones will go down very well with players in just about every genre!

Great move, and I can't wait to see how they'll look and also in what way they'll be incorporated into the game...  :)

Hey Nick,
Nice options in the 2nd box, however is there any chance that there'll be a creatures box or boxes? Something akin to the bestiary in the book, say, split into two of three sets: "Creatures Box 1", "Creatures Box 2" and "Creatures Box 3"? Put a few of the small & regular creatures and 1 Large creature in each box? I think that gamers of other game systems that can paint, etc. would flock to these. Just my 2¢. Thanks for your time.

Thumbs up. Fantasy adventures are two-a-penny (maybe not in plastic) but a decent set of cultists is hard to find.

Roll on November. ;)

This is fantastic news- plastic Cultists at last! And after playing a do-gooding Thaumaturge it will make a change to be a bad 'un in Frostgrave! Looks like I'll be throwing even more money in the direction of Osprey and Northstar come November!  ;)

More plastic figure components. What's not to like?  :)

Nick, presumably the five bodies (torsos and legs combos) on the frame in the new set will be different from the existing five 'soldier' bodies?

My D&D players will rue the day I get my claws on  a box of these.

Yes, the bodies of the Cultists, and the arm positions, are more 'Dramatic'. If the Soldiers were extras in a show, the Cultists are 'bit part' actors with a line or two. If that makes any sense.
