Hi I want to get myself a khemri team. The GW minis seem pretty boring and I hear they are a pain to put together.
Anyone have good idea for other sources of minies?
I have looked at the warhammer tombkings and they look promising.
I have also looked at Rackhams confrontation minies and there is a few that seem usefull.
The biggest issue is mummies. I want to get one Ramtut from GW, but dont know where to get the other 3.
All ideas are welcome

The GW BB mummies are one piece, so you could use those 2 without having to assemble them. I plan on bitz ordering Settra (sp?) with my next bitz order to use as a third mummy, and my 4th is a Reaper Warlord mummy. You could certainly use Ramtut III as a 4th mummy though

Nice find but I think your going to have a very strange looking team if you try to field all of those together
. You will have some small some large and some inbetweens..

yeah, dont intend to buy all those.
Its really just my base pool of possible selections.
Some of the are a little crazy I know
As long as skeletons are same type
Throwers same type
Blitzers same type
and those three are approximately same scale with blitzers a little larger it will be fine.
Mummies can be huge I dont care and i dont mind if they are somewhat different. Rather have cool figs with personality than a pretty uniform LOS.

the figures from Crocodile games are great for a khemri team.

Nice link,
I looked though Crocodille games Figures, no question hey are the perfect theme and would be cool blood bowlers. But the figures themselves just arent that interesting. Even though some have animal heads, they are just too plain looking. Also they are egyptian but NOT undead in any way.
I will stick too making my selection from the choices I listed above

I've been thinking of making a Khemri team that's a bit different from the normal egyptian look. I came across these
undead roman legionaries and thought that they might make an OK team (and not that expensive) if done properly.
The thing that is keeping me back apart from time, is the lack of suitable proxies for the mummies. Any ideas out there?

Oh yeah! I think I love those "mummies". I recognize the mummies as Dark Age. What is the thrower?

Looks like the same "style" of base to me from the same company? Can you post a link to it because I REALLY hate the thro-ra models. Is there another one similar to this but slightly different to use as a second thro ra?

I decided to buy 2 of these guys as throwers, might put a ball in their hands too.
