deadlands did one but its quite tall. I gave mine away but iirc it was about 35mm tall

I am buying black scorpion miniatures which i believe are quite large

The JVS is the old Deadlands/Railwars. There are several more. Nice minis, but as mentioned, they are very very big.

Not big compaired to Black Scorpion or Choroscope

Hawgleg Publishing has a set of four 25mm undead cowboys and one dead cowboy marker for $10. USD The set will be appearing in our shopping cart shortly, or you can let me know and we can make arrangements to ship them to you.

Scroll down on our home page to see a photo:

Herby, I'm looking at one the Railwars undead cowboys right now, alongside a BS mini in similar pose, and they are the same size -- BIG.

Actually, I was just about to post some pics of all my cowboy zombies. I have all of the ones mentioned above. Give me a couple days and I'll have it done.

Here's the comparison I promised:

The first two are the Hawgleg zombies (I bought them before Hawgleg bought the molds, can't remember who used to make them), the second two are Foundry, and the last two are Deadlands/Great Rail Wars by Jeff Valent.

You can see that the Hawgleg and Foundry match up well. They are kind of little compared to the Deadlands. This doesn't really bother me at all, but it might some people.

Hawgleg and foundry look fine together, and those are nicely painted figures thanks for the photo.

Deadlands are nice, but I have to say the size difference is too great for me.

I have ordered some black scorpion "ordinary alive" cowboys. Would you know if they are similar to the smaller or larger models in your picture?

Black Scorpion is the one company I don't own any of.

Artizan, however, are close to "true 28mm" and go with the Hawgleg and Foundry just fine. In fact, if you scroll through those pictures, you'll fine the Artizan version of Al Swearingen from Deadwood and him as a zombie, which is one of the Foundry zombies who just happened to look a lot like Al. I just clipped the pistol off and added a knife blade.

Hexxy: Thanks for posting those photos. Those show a great comparison of our figs and the others.

Oh, and Mega Minis sold the molds and production rights to us.

By the way, they are finally available online for purchase:

No problem, Mitchell. I've had those since Mega Minis blew out of their stock when they were going to discontinue them. Just painted them last week finally along with some other weird west stuff I've got.

I also FINALLY bought Gutshot and am itching to get in a game.
