You know the ones I mean . . . the lean, fast-moving, Morlock-like cannibalistic mutants in the film.

These are the only stills I've found:

If anyone has seen a full body shot or two, could you please post link here?

Thanks so much,

I haven't seen any but they struck me as looking a lot like Dark Eldar wyches. If you combined those with the heads of Daemonettes I'd bet that would get you most of the way there.

with the right paintjob, i think GW LOTR orcs may be a good fit

what i usually do CC, is put in the dvd, pause at the required scene, and take a pic with your digital camera of the tv screen….primitive ,but works great for me

Other than that it is a hard source to find :(

*****

For miniatures I would look to Dark Age Miniatures…plenty of close proxies there

Uesugi's search for 15mm stand-ins:

Just pop the dvd in your computer and use a program like VLC (a free downloadable video player that is better than most, if not all, the purchasable competitors, just search for it) and right-click on the movie screen. There is a snapshot option on the list that gives you a perfect screenshot of whatever frame is playing when you click it.

28mmMan10 Jun 2011 9:21 a.m. PST

Thanks Samulus, good bump!

Cacique Caribe10 Jun 2011 11:04 a.m. PST

VLC?

Thanks. Will give that a try.

I searched for suitable minis for these guys for a while to no avail as Dan (CC) referenced above.

Here are some of my recent thoughts on the subject re-posted from another thread:

I also considered using 15mm unarmed elf figures or bloodbowl figures as conversions but again didnt find any right minis.

Im still gonna keep looking amongst "ghoul" type minis and other undead human types until I come across something that works.

Knowing Khurasan & Rebel I bet one of them eventually comes up with something rage zombie like that wont be silly!

Hmm. Does this one open for you guys?

This site calls the mutants "hunters":

Dan
PS. I wonder if these could be modified to look like SF mutants:

They look somewhat like the reavers from "Serenity" me thinks.

If anyone is looking to make conversions of your own, at least these guys give you figures with bald heads to start with:

I had a feeling there was some connection between these Pandorum hunters and the Morlocks in The Time Machine, but I had no idea it was literal:

Wow. Those guys move so fast, I'm having a hard time capturing any images.

Check them out here at 3:30

"Hmm. Does this one open for you guys?"

Yep, good pic.

Jeroen7214 Jun 2011 2:36 a.m. PST

I watched this movie yesterday, after reading about it in this topic :)

Actually a pretty nice movie with good looking creatures.

I think I've found a couple more:

Not a photo, but it suggests how to outfit such a figure:

Cacique Caribe22 Jun 2011 9:36 a.m. PST

Excellent.

Hmm. I must have a weird problem on my other computer then. Either that or it's screening out more than I'd like. When I try to view them from there, I get nowhere.

Thanks,

Dan

If only there was a way to convert those weapons to look like they were made from scrap metal scavenged off a spaceship.

Possible substitute for 15mm?

Alex Reed11 Sep 2011 12:57 p.m. PST

That looks like a VERY Promising movie (and Imagery). Chris Alvart wants to do a Prequel (How the Hunters evolved and why the ship is at the bottom of Tanis' Ocean) and a Sequel (Obviously, the 1200 survivors are joined by several thousand surviving Hunters from the Elysium).

Does anyone else see the deep mythological connections in this work "Pandorum" (Pandora's Box), Tanis, Elysium, etc…

Cacique Caribe11 Sep 2011 1:17 p.m. PST

Alex,

And also the first ship launched, and the first affected by Pandorum, was named Eden.

Dan
PS. I figured that not all the "Hunters" would have drowned, as a good portion of the Elyssium remained above the flood waters.

Alex, I made a thesis on that.

A strong movie. I like it. I watch it at least once a month.

I watched Pandorum back to back after Apocalypto the other day…a pair of fine chase the hero movies…for a gaming setting, combine the two…good stuff.

And miniatures?

28mmMan,

Those figures are stunning.

And I really like this pic you provided:

The less clothing and armor, the scarier and wilder they look.

Here is an additional reason to hope for those 15mm Pandorum "hunters":

@28mmMan: That sculptor is my guy. You can see my jump troops right next to them in the gallery. No surprise, Leandro is fantastic.
