Are they? Damn, there goes that plan. Maybe a Circle/Norse Team could be in the works for me then. :)

Just had my two from Willy Miniatures arrive, easily the best I've seen.

I've been using the HorrorClix She-Wolf mini from the Freakshow Set.

Image

It's plastic, which is a huge selling point for me, and is decently prepainted. Some washing and dry brushing and detail work can make it look as good as any other model hand-painted from scratch. The scale is great too. It's a bit bigger than your standard human, so looks like it fits the role of a Frenzy, Claw-Ripping beast, but not nearly so big that it makes standard Str4 players look like pushovers (I think plastic 40K Ork teams suffer from this sort of effect, where all of their Str3 players end up looking closer to ogre-sized and completely tower over most Str4 pieces, and it seems like a lot of werewolf models out there also seem to 'error' on the gigantic size).


The game has been out-of-print for years, but it's not too hard to find online stores with the pieces in stock, usually for no more than $2-3 (USD), which is a pretty unbeatable price when compared to any of the metal alternatives.


Additionally, I've used the Flesh Suit mini as Flesh Golems and the Snake Oil Salesman as a Lizardman Apothecary, and there are lots of other interesting figs in the set that could potentially transition over to a BB pitch nicely.

One of our coaches pairs the she-wolf with a werewolf orderly....

The Horrorclix box set is easily mined for minis: it comes with a pair of werewolves, a vampire, two highly serviceable "treemen", a chainsawer and a couple other figs.... Most places around here are trying to get rid of them for $5.00 USD....

The werewolf orderly is another good, cheap piece. I use it as my Necromantic coach, since it's already holding a clipboard.

If you can still find any of the Rackham Wolfen line, they are IMHO the best wolfmen ever produced

Yes, but the Wolfen are BG size so they do not fit as Werewolves

Kick off return was my idea :)

I guess there are two discussions on werewolves at the same time, but i'll repeat myself here: the best ones i've found (and own) are from Willy Miniatures.

What about this little fellow?

Image

Scale: 1:35 / ~40mm

Though its a bit pricy (its slightly cheaper in Europe) and you should think about a small conversion to remove the hat...
Otherwise I´d also stick to the Rackham wolfen.
