Ebob does some Townsfolk that are perfectly in tune with middle Earth: http://www.ebobminiatures.com/products/fantasy.htm#1 The scale is very good as well. |

what a coincidence, i posted a thread about civilians on another forum earlier today. How about any of these 3 sets: the 1st one is more "men gathering their weapons to give the women and children time to escape" |

perry miniatures (yes, the GW sculpters). Their ordering system is a bit dated, but it will do the job. All those packs are £6 each I beleive http://www.perry-miniatures.com/index2.html |

James, it would help if you posted the range where you found these in, as they do quite a lot of different ones.. And, of course, the names of the blisters, if you please. |

Well, now that we know where they come from, and what they are called, it's definitely more help than your first post. |

Old glory do quite a few and cheap to, £22 for 30. The US site has pics: http://www.oldgloryminiatures.com/products.asp?cat=169 and you can order them from here: http://www.oldgloryuk.com/disp_items.php?m=2&s=87 The models are not the best in the world but ok and fit in with the LOTR models quite well. |

Middle-earth has an Army of the Dead, no reason it can't have a Day of the Dead too... |

Reaper Miniatures makes some very nice townsfolk. Each picture shows the contents of a blister. I posted these on OR before, maybe it was James’ thread? http://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#detail/02825 http://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#detail/02584 http://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#detail/02583 http://www.reapermini.com/FigureFinder#detail/03233 Rob |

And Front Rank Figurines do some great ones: LINK (they're at the bottom of the list) And luckily, they've ust put in a bar at the top of their minis' close-up pics (LINK) so you can easily look through them without filling your screen with new windows! |

Someone made a horrible mistake on the Foundry site... Quote: Albania, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Rep., Denmark, Eire, Finland, France, Germany,Gibraltar, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechenstein, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Vatican and Yugoslavia.
does not include Russia and Albania But I do love their range, including the Spanish ones. Oh, if only I had money... I don't think the Hasslefree ones are very Middle-Earth-like. A bit too Warhammery Fantasty for me. |
