Zombies - FTZ Fantasy Tribe (solid base)
Citadel released the Fantasy Tribes Zombies in WD32 Aug 1982. Most are 28mm, from the tabletop to the top of the head. As you'll see there were a LOT of different variants to quite a few of the bodies in the range. So if you are a collector, going after this full set will keep you very busy. There were 8 different Zombies, all of which could have come with one of 27 different head variants and if that was not enough, you could also buy separate heads for conversions. No one really knows just how many variants there are out there and it's known that one variant has the same head, but is looking a different way. Richard (OrcLord) discussed this line with both the Perrys and Bryan Ansell. The story is that they made a bunch of bodies, weapons and heads and sat around one day mixing and matching to create variants. They did not systematically create all variations, but randomly a few of this and a few of that. When the moulds went bad, that figure was cut out, and when they needed new moulds they just made some more.
The Citadel FTZ Fantasy Tribe Zombies line was later released as C19 Zombies. The purpose of this page is to show images of the miniatures only seen as drawings in the C19 section of Citadel Compendium 1 and to add to the small pictures of some of the painted Fantasy Tribe Zombies at The Stuff of Legends. Each body's variant has been placed in the same order for ease of recognition. Likewise the names used are not official Games Workshop Citadel names, they are just to describe the head so it can be more easily recognised.
