eady to stomp someone into oblivion. He needed the
least cleaning of any of the Wildlings that I took a look at.
At $8.00 USD he’s cheaper than many other cavalry
models of similar size and, like the other Wildlings, has
uses beyond 100 Kingdoms. I truly enjoyed all of the
Wildlings models and very much like the fact that the guys
at Black Orc Games are branching off into new areas and
not duplicating previous armies.
The next three pictures are from the Freak Show army,
also featured in the Concept Art section of the previous
issue of Fictional Reality.
First up is the giant Monster. Once assembled, which is a
very easy process as the two parts of this model fit
together perfectly, he stands almost 3.5” tall from the
bottom of the base to the tip of his club. Other than his
massive club he’s wearing clothes that have been torn to
hell and I’m sure that he’s carrying around plenty of BO.
His skin is in about
as bad of shape as
his clothes. It’s
scarred, stitched,
wrinkled and worn
like some giant
Franenstien monster.
There was a
bit of flash that
needed to be
cleaned, but it was
almost unnoticeable.
The
mold line was
equally minor and in
just a few minutes
he was ready to
glue together.
This is a great
figure even if you’re
not building a Freak
Show army. Can you say Giant Zombie? I thought you
could. Imagine your PC’s faces when they turn the
corner to find a hoard of zombies and then this
monstrosity makes his way through the fog to pound
them into jelly. Brings a tear to my eye knowing the joy
I’ll experience…tee hee.
At $7.50 USD he’s also very economical. He comes in
taller than most Ogres, is cheaper and has an awesome
use outside of 100 Kingdoms.
Above are two of the Circus Freaks, which come two to
a blister for $6.50 USD. Each model comes as either
four or five pieces (body plus various arms and legs, and
one ponytail). There was a bit of cleaning needed, more
in the area of flash that needed to be trimmed rather
than the mold line, which really was not visible on either
model.
These guys are veteran troopers for the Freak Show
army and have the same ragged complexion as the
Monster and the Tall Man (see next page). These guys
go one step further on the weird meter as they are
either two guys that have been fused together or
Siamese twins. I’d go with the latter as the army
centers around stuff that you’d find in a carnival or freak
show.
Out of all of the 100 Kingdoms figures that I’ve put
together these were the most trying. They took a lot
more of my patience and time than any others, but they
did go together and everything fit just fine. They are
not bad models, far from it in fact. They just took
longer, maybe because some of the appendages were at
angles that made them harder to glue into place and
hold for a few seconds for the glue to set.
Looking at these figures you might think that their
usability outside of 100 Kingdoms would be severely
limited or just plain non-existent. I’d have to totally
disagree with that assessment though. Double-tough
zombies for Dungeons and Dragons, sure. Feral
mutants in Traveller 20 or another space game, yup.
Some strange result of a covert government experiment
gone horribly wrong in d20 Modern, now you’re talking!
Very cool figures but be ready to spend more time
putting them together.
