If they really wanted to make these stand out they would have done arms with no hands, and then seperate hands with various weapons...
A Nazi zombie lurching forward, clutching his rifle is much better than a Nazi zombie lurching forward.
Also there does need to be more bodeis. 5 should have been the bare minimum.

Three Color Minimum

Wonder if these will be in the same scale as Warlord's plastic german troops. That could make for some nice conversions.

Not a bad thought, seeing as someone already converted a pile of Warlord Germans with Mantic Zombies via simple head and hand swaps.
