Hi folks. On the strength of the last sets of figures I bought I have bought more sets from Wargames Factory. These first two sets are their armed civilian 'Apocalypse' range.
As usual, you get lots and lots of plastic for your money. They are made from the usual hard plastic which makes clean up of seam lines (on all the parts although there is very little evidence of any flash) very easy and assembly even easier with polystyrene cement. I use Revell Contacta rather than Extra Thin as it's easier to apply on figures.
Detail is very good although you can buy better if you can afford it. Almost all of their sets can be found on ebay for prices which work out at less than £1 per figure - sometimes much less.
Both sets have three identical sprues with ten torsos and some heads and arms on each (30 figures in each set) and a separate sprue with more heads, arms and weapons with a good selection of small packs, water bottles and sheathed weapons.
Also as usual there is a wide range of weapon options in both sets, and those which are not moulded onto arms are interchangeable between the sets. So between the two sets you have:
Rifles with and without telescopic sights
Assault rifles, sub machine guns, shotguns and pistols in two or three varieties of each
Rocket and grenade launchers
Pipe bombs
Knives, cleavers, swords and machetes
There is also a selection of 'domestic' weapons including crowbars, baseball bats, cricket bats, golf clubs, tennis racquets and chain saws.
In short, it makes Sarah Conor's stash in Terminator 2 look a bit pathetic! An added bonus is that it is possible to create a set of figures going about their normal daily activities in peaceable circumstances should you want to create a domestic/urban scene.
I like these very much and I shall certainly be looking to put them in a street fight situation sometime - although not soon!
