100 Piece Army Skeleton Warriors Ready to Take Over

For $10 you got 100 Minis to practice your paint technique which is why I bought them. They are slightly larger then your standard D&D mini which is why I included those in the pic my review. That way potential buyers can get a look at the scale of the minis. They are pretty well molded and with the right paint technique it really pop. I did get a couple of skeletons that were half molded or molded incorrectly so I'm going to cut those apart and Frankenstein myself a four-armed skeleton. Have fun, it's well worth the purchase.

For anyone thinking of purchasing these skeletons for D&D they count as a large creature. They are about 2 inches tall from the base to the top of their heads, some are a little bigger but they are all about two inches, whereas most D&D figures are only about an 1 inch tall. The bases for these skeletons is about 1 1/2 inches long. A medium creature in D&D has a circular base of only an inch, so these are definitely a large creature. They do stand fairly well but if you intend to use these in a game I'd recommend attaching a large base to it so your players won't get confused as to the area it's supposed to take up. All of that aside this is a great buy. These are above and beyond the plastic army men available when I was a child. If you intend to use them in D&D they will of course take a little preparation. They have a little flashing that you'll have to take off and as I said they stand fairly well but I'd recommend attaching them to a large base. Some of the weapons may be a little bent and if you're a painter, which I am, you'll probably want to do that too. Taking all of that into consideration you receive a hundred skeletons for a little over $.12 a piece. At that price I'd say even with the prep work you're coming out ahead. Out of a hundred figures only one was damaged. One swordsman with a cutlass was missing his sword arm. I had no intention of using all of these for D&D figures, truth be told only a few of them will get painted and attached to bases. Most of these figures will be cut into pieces for scenery and bone piles. So a damaged one is no big deal, and frankly one damaged figure out of a hundred is perfectly acceptable. I've got a lot of work to do, but will post pictures of painted figures and bone piles when I finish them. Below is a listing of the individual bags and the total of what I received. No two orders will be the same, but I wanted to give you an idea of what you can expect. First Bag: 4 Swordsmen with cutlasses *Note-One of these was missing it's sword arm 4 Swordsmen with shields 6 Spearmen 3 Axe men 1 Flail 1 Archer Second Bag: 1 Swordsman with cutlass 1 Swordsman with shield 3 Spearmen 6 Axe men 3 Flails 6 Archers Third Bag: 6 Swordsmen with cutlasses 2 Swordsmen with shields 2 Spearmen 6 Axe men 1 Flail 3 Archers Fourth Bag: 3 Swordsmen with cutlasses 4 Swordsmen with shields 2 Spearmen 5 Axe men 2 Flails 4 Archers Fifth Bag: 2 Swordsmen with cutlasses 3 Swordsmen with shields 3 Spearmen 5 Axe men 4 Flails 3 Archers Total: 17 Swordsmen with cutlasses* Note one was missing it's sword arm 14 Swordsmen with shields 16 Spearmen 25 Axe men 11 Flails 17 Archers

For the cheap price, you can't beat these plastic skeletons. They're 54mm tall (2 inches), about the equivalent of an Ogre or Troll in a 28mm miniature war game. I plan to use them as Bone Devils in my fantasy war game (large undead). They come in a variety of 5-6 poses and should paint up fairly well with acrylic model paints (I haven't painted any of mine yet). They're not elaborately detailed, like a Reaper or GW miniature would be, but they're still pretty decent looking and you wouldn't be embarrassed to field them in a war game. Recommended.

I bought these for use with D&D games, and also to work on painting skills. For D&D purposes, the skeletons fit the Large size, instead of Medium. I just beefed up the skeleton definition for the game. These don't need painting, but they've worked well for developing painting skills, and they look better when painted.

I packed one of these in with each treat bag we gave out , other items included candy , plastic spiders or other bugs whistle rings and of course the skelletons

Bought to paint some minis with my grandkids ages 3-6. They're about army men quality, I had good dispersement of about six different skeletons with different weapons/shields. I did prep them for the kids with a black/gray primer spray paint and a dry brush(overbrush) of cheap craft paint white the night before. Then just let the kids shade them with diluted shade paints. Kept their short attention for a while painting, though I probably finished 50 of the hundred, lol, but only takes 30 seconds or less to shade one. We've had a good time with them battling skeletal army's and basically setting them up and throwing things at them catapult style thinning the advancing horde. Good times.

These army toys are great gifts

These are ok. They advertise like you get 4 different types of skeletons. In reality, you get 90 of the one with the mace, 1 archer, and maybe a few with a sword. it's disappointing to say the least. My 6 yo still plays with them but just know you basically get one kind of skeleton.
