Actually, thirty zombies per box, with three per sprue, though you can crank out four per sprue.

**kenshin620**

Ack multiplication error. 240 zombies. Unless my eyes deceive me because those boxes say 60 on the sides

**BrookM**

So I thought as well, until I cracked one open. A bit of a printing slip I guess, but I'm not going to complain, I've got a crapton of shamblers to build.

**kenshin620**

Aww that sucks. So 120 zombies (+40 ones without legs!)

**BrookM**

Options are very much limited, just six heads, three arms, three torsos, three legs, a spine and a body bursting from the ground. I'll get some size comparison pics while I'm at it.

Automatically Appended Next Post:

F.l.t.r.: Mantic Ghoul, GW Space Marine, Mantic Zombie, Hasslefree's McKenzie, Mantic Zombie, Warlord's plastic German, Mantic Zombie, Infinity's Kosak and a Mantic Zombie.

They make space marines truescale!

Anyways although I like mantic, I am a little annoyed that they are convinced that almost all of their models must have at least one arm already attached. (I know a few with separate ones but then they may have their legs attached)

**BrookM**

Most companies make them look truescale, especially Hasslefree.

I agree that the models are a bit low on the conversion level, thankfully I have three Ghoul heads on the sprue somewhere so three.. zombies.. will.. look.. a bit.. well different.

But bleh, such minor points aside, these are great models with good detail, hella lot better than the GW and WGF ones fo' sho'.

**bubber**

Got mine at last - yey!
Didn't get the free sprue - boo!

**12thRonin**

Is it just me or is the liche king doing the sideways gangster glock with his left hand?

**kenshin620**

Dang, apparently the Zombie Horde set of 60 caused too much problems with packaging/etc that they are discontinuing it. Although for this weekend I think you can buy single zombie sprues

**filbert**

I ordered a set of 30 zombies and they were fairly wedged into the box so I can see their point...

Not quite. They're repackaging it in a way that prevents resellers from mistakenly believing the two boxes of 30 zombies that make up the Horde are actually separate products.

We here at Mantic are sorry for the confusion caused, the miss-print on the box has caused a few issues. When we send out the Zombie Horde we shrink wrap the 2 boxes together, however shops have then accidentally been splitting the complete product.

Anyone who has ordered directly from our web-store will have received a complete Zombie horde, we have also been in contact with all of our distributors highlighting the issue, so please contact the company you bought your horde from, as they will have the second half of your set waiting for you.

Sorry again for any issues this has caused, please bear with us, we are currently in the process of re-packaging the Zombies so it is a better sized box, and is much clearer.
