Best model for Plague Zombies

[inquisitorsog]

What are people's thoughts on the best models to use for plague zombies now that we go a "hotfix" for that little point of contention?

GW/FW and non GW suggestions allowed, although I'm more interested in GW/FW. Minor conversion (such as swaps with minimal filling/resculpting needed) is ok.

Winner gets absolutely no accolades at all.

For non-GW my first thought is Wargames factory as they do a decent civilian zombie for low cost and have male and female models.
For GW, I'm torn. The WFB zombies look pretty ugly by current standards. There's some other options, but it you're going to drop a couple of blobs on the table, cost could be a factor for some of us. I was thinking maybe plague bearers with other heads, but I've got no experience working with the plastic kit.

I'll be using FW renegade militia.

I'm using some normal crappy zombies until I can get more, with 3 metal empire greatswords acting as "herders or heralds of nurgle" keeping the zombies attention forward on the enemy.

Cheap and cheerful: [url]http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Warpath/Corporation/Product/Zombie-Marines-80-Figures.html[/url]

Bit more expensive, but cool looking - [url]http://www.pig-iron-productions.com/kl12-kolony-feral-blades-p-60.html[/url]

You could go for IG with these heads: [url]http://www.pig-iron-productions.com/hd16-kolony-unhooded-feral-head-sprues-p-53.html[/url]

A bit of a wonky scale, but: [url]http://www.fantasyboardgames.co.uk/zombicide-2713-p.asp[/url]

And finally, they're true-scale, but I actually think that looks a little better - makes the rest of your army more imposing: [url]http://wargamesfactory.com/webstore/dark-futures[/url]

Buy a box of Cadian, VC Zombies, VC Ghouls and Maybe a box of Catachans and do a Bits swap. When your done you get 40 Legs, Torsos and arms sets and they are almost all in right scale only issue is the Catachan arms but don use them and your good.

I've have been using (for plague bearers in my Chaos Daemon army, and zombies in my CSM army) the warhammer vampire counts zombies. My other army is IG, so I've used all my spare bits for the zombies to give them that ultra heretic look. My favorite is the flame thrower model that is totally ignoring the fact that he has a flame thrower in order to eat braaaaaaaaaaains.

They look really really really awesome and I have yet to meet a person that doesn't say, "That is alot better then just using the GW PB's or zombies stock"

It's nurgle! They should look the part dammit! :-D I've always thought having some orcs and tau thrown in would make it look even more evil.
