The Nightmare Before Sigmar - Pre Slotta Undead

Another post of Pre Slotta classic minis!
This time we have some Fantasy Tribes Skeletons here for your perusal, Citadel Code C17.
And Wraiths, also from the olde Fantasy Tribes line and are Citadel Coded C18.


Shiver me bones!  Here they are in all their skull and bones glory.

Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Come with us and you will see
This, our town of Halloween


The Wraith in the middle is called "The Lord of Darkness"
I really like the wraith on the right with the embossed shield.
There are a bunch more of these solid based Wraiths that Im missing.
But as with all things Oldhammer, if you dont have them already they are either too hard to find or too expensively priced.
Which makes me cherish these three Wraiths that I do have.


This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat till the neighbors die of fright
It's our town, everybody scream
In this town of Halloween


The fella 2nd from the left is an Undead King, hence the rusty crown on his skull.
I like his "scary hands" pose.
I can almost hear his ghostly boo.

I am the one hiding under your bed
Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red
I am the one hiding under your stairs
Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair


 The fella 2nd from the right, I cant find in the catalogs, but I assume he is another Undead King because of his crown.
And I dont know what he is doing with his hands.
I think that he thinks he is a mime.
Oh I get it, your are trapped in a box... I hate mimes, they just arent entertaining at all.


I am the clown with the tear-away face
Here in a flash and gone without a trace!
I am the "who" when you call, "Who's there?"
I am the wind blowing through your hair


 I know some folks say the Pre Slottas are too small and too crude.
But they are the acquired taste, methinks.
Charm is in the Eye of the Beholder, afterall.

Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
And scream like a banshee
Make you jump out of your skin
This is Halloween, everyone scream
Wont' ya please make way for a very special guy


Our man Jack is King of the Pumpkin patch
Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King!
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!


 We hope you enjoyed The Nightmare Before Sigmar.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming...

In the next post we got some reinforcements for the "good" side.

WINTER IS COMING!!!
And if that isnt enough...
IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS!!!

What am I on about?  Tune in next post, true believers.

Cheers,
Mar

  1. Once again, some great old school figures. I tend not to try too hard searching for most of the old figures anymore. Just an occasional search if I'm bored. People have gotten it into their heads that their sitting on gold now and the pricing is obscene.
