More Armed Civilians

Okay so the last group of armed Civilians I did some time ago were from Old Glory UK. that set is armed with AK47s mostly and RPGs,



This group is from Peter Pig http://www.peterpig.co.uk/ and they are armed with M16s, which is great for western world game play, they are not actually civilians they are Professional Special Forces without head gear. but with the right paint job can look the part. They are from Peter Pig's AK47 Republic range (Africa during the 60s 70s and 80s) A lot of great stuff there in that range well worth a look.

Cost; 2.90 British Pounds, about $4.44 in US Dollars not including the shipping cost, eight figures (8), a nice deal. I ordered two sets for a total of sixteen figures (16).

Shipping; Put my order in and was notified when shipped ten days from notification to delivery, from the UK to the Midwest of the US. with most of the east coast hammered with snow and storms nice and fast.

Now I did have a fair size order and will be writing about them later so breaking down shipping cost would be difficult. minimum shipping would be for just one item would be 4.50 British Pounds about $6.89 in US. Dollars. Of course the more you order the better you fair on shipping.

Poses;  3 different poses, order 2 packs each pack had the same mix of poses.


  • Advancing (3)
  • Kneeling (2)
  • Signaling (3)




Molding; Almost no flash at all, some lite molding lines but very easy to clean up, bottom of the bases may need some lite filing or sanding before mounting on a base, bases on these are rather small difficult standing them up as is but basing will fix that.

Game uses;
Post Apocalyptic Survivors/Gangs
Zombie Survivors
Insurgents
Street Gangs
Modern Pirates
Militias (from most anywhere around the world)

They will make for great Survivors for almost any game of Zombies, Post Apocalyptic situation, or even a militia group as suggested above, which I plan to use them for as listed above in my gaming.

As for the duplicate figure I figure a few head swaps with head gear, Green Stuff or anything else one could add to help change the looks.

  1. Sweet. I really do like Peter Pig stuff. I agree whole heartedly that with a little putty and/or head swap you immediately have a new one-of-a-kind character.

    The Pig's head swap packs are so cool. Have fun.

    Looking forward to seeing these fitted out to your tabletop warrior specifications.

    1. Thank You Jay, yes I did grab some of his head swap packs as well.

      Peter Pig has some really nice stuff in his WWII section as well that I think would be great for Pulp Game, German Sub Shore Party, Down German Pilots, French Resistance (used as Merchant Sailors)

      I'm gearing up for a really long Zombie campaign, It's still in the making going to take some time but will be posting my progress
