Sadly, they aren't available singly but Adam offers some good advice.<br /><br />@Adam. If baseball bat armed thugs are what you're after then it makes good sense to buy the Street Thugs set. Not many companies make thugs with baseball bats.<br /><br />@Shintokamikaze. For African/American flesh I start with Vallejo Chocolate Brown. If you only have Citadel paints, use Scorched Brown instead. I give this a Citadel Badab Black ink wash. Then I drybrush with Vallejo Chocolate. Depending on how dark or light I want the skin to be, I'll add further dry brushes with a lighter colour like Citadel Bestial Brown, which may be lightened further by adding Citadel Bleached Bone to the mix.<br /><br />@Mike. I bought these in the mid 1990s, so I've had them a long time. They certainly stand the test of time.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-46456563014041412742011-07-14T02:23:10.728+01:002011-07-14T02:23:10.728+01:00i have been wanting these figs for a few years now...i have been wanting these figs for a few years now never got around to getting them, regret that now, your work is above par as usual. makes me want them for sure, great jobmikestarfighterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17541434330278900617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-81662420532441508582011-07-14T01:54:42.682+01:002011-07-14T01:54:42.682+01:00just a quick question,if you could help me please....just a quick question,if you could help me please.How do you paint african american skin,what colours do you use? cos he looks greatshintokamikazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05207403117206742641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-71223463883299099242011-07-14T00:13:09.909+01:002011-07-14T00:13:09.909+01:00I'll go against the norm and give my bigger th...I'll go against the norm and give my bigger thumbs up to the Street Thugs set (though both are great). I recenly put in a rather large order at Foundry, and picked up the Thugs, but decided to pass on the Wrecking Crew for now. The two fellows armed with the bats really sold me on that set. <br /><br />You've painted both sets nicely. <br /><br /><br />@ShellDrake. Foundry won't be selling them as singles, but I'm sure you could buy the set and recoup some cost by selling the rest on ebay (as singles or a set minu the guy you want).Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01340813263749275644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-57472699206239143862011-07-13T23:55:34.748+01:002011-07-13T23:55:34.748+01:00Like others I like the wrecking crew - and I wish ...Like others I like the wrecking crew - and I wish they would sell these figures as singles, as I want the one with the molotov cocktail!Shelldrakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10719790045474525633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-64721641052059296412011-07-13T23:53:48.513+01:002011-07-13T23:53:48.513+01:00Nice figure, I think they can be useful in a lot o...Nice figure, I think they can be useful in a lot of scenarios, even in non zombie game ;)Zerloonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07288071535124462117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-56876941505916477552011-07-13T21:52:40.704+01:002011-07-13T21:52:40.704+01:00@Adam.

Hey, it'd be a dull world if we all liked the same.<br /><br />@Johnny. Another thumbs up for the Wrecking Crew. These aren't all unarmed but they are very lightly armed. If you look at the basic rulebook for ATZ, there a few possible encounters with unarmed or lightly armed folk. It might be worth thinking about covering all eventualities.<br /><br />@Ray. I'm sure ATZ doesn't have rules for skateboarding but an increase in movement seems reasonable to me. Plus, they have the advantage of being a darned sight quieter than any motor vehicle.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-67278777193102411782011-07-13T19:52:07.498+01:002011-07-13T19:52:07.498+01:00Great looking figures, I like the Tom Mosley figur...Great looking figures, I like the Tom Mosley figure, does he get an extra few inches in movement as he's on a skateboard?Ray Rousellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352596392520905197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-9674587222017277272011-07-13T18:31:53.231+01:002011-07-13T18:31:53.231+01:00Wrecking crew for the win!

The next batrep shouldn't be too far away.<br /><br />@Shintokamikaze. I've had these guys painted for years, so they certainly weren't done that quickly. If you want to see them in action click on the link in the review. They did not fare well against Vampifan and co.<br /><br />@Brummie. Thanks. Yes, some of these would be perfect for bare knuckle fighters, especially the figure of Quiff.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-16778641444465870412011-07-13T16:43:33.573+01:002011-07-13T16:43:33.573+01:00Nice review and nicely painted mini's
