So, here I was browsing the Mantic website, when I caught sight of this:

Malak's Legion of Death army deal - http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Undead/Army-Deals/Product/Malaks-Legion-of-Death-Army-Deal.html

Sounds cool, but wait until you see the figures:

Vampire Lord on Pegasus

Revenant Knights (Metal for now but plastic later in the year!) - http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Undead/Cavalry/Product/Undead-Limited-Edition-Revenant-Knights.html

Reapers - http://www.manticblog.com/?p=736

Death Kings Cabal (Hero set)

and 100 plastic figures from 2 Undead Warhosts - http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Undead/Warhost-Detachments/Product/Undead-Warhost.html

Plus 16 Mantic points.

Remembered to put in links this time as well

Liking the Vampire on Pegasus. I may definitely have a future home for that model.

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings.
Look on My works, Ye Mighty, and despair.

Ok, now we're getting somewhere...

The Vampire Lord I like. And the Ghouls look great.

Still not fussed on their skeletons (they just don't look right. Too cartoony) but the undead horses look promising.

I think the catapults that come with with the army deals look pretty dinky. That alone would put me off buying those bundles.

I'm intrigued by the decision to have the cavalry in metal, and then switch them to plastic - caters to all tastes really!

Them ghouls are tasty, excellent pygmy monsters or the like.

COMING SOON TO CHANNEL7 - The insidious masterminds of HADES are constantly threatening the free nations of the world through acts of terror and theft of top secret equipment. The scheming Elliot Fontaine is trying to dominate the world market with his Fontaine Industries products. The evil Red Empire is encroaching upon the world with its armies of misguided minions. The Republic of Alruco is a hotbed of intrigue and murder. Finally.. the mysterious island Kingdom of Korvosa are getting more and more bold with their science projects.

The forces of good are preparing their agencies, amongst them the British CROWN and American OMEGA, to combat these evil factions and ensure that freedom will prevail once more!

Definitely liking the Undead Range. I'm anxious to see what the undead cavalry look like when finished.

Aesthetically, I prefer this range much more than their Elves (they're not bad - just too lanky for my tastes).

Just signed up for my free sprue. I'm liking their Undead stuff and want to compare it to my existing GW models.

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings.
Look on My works, Ye Mighty, and despair.
