28mm Painted Hasslefree Miniatures Survivors: Grandparents and Grandson.

Any period I do I focus on the extras maybe even more than the actual figures required like civilians and scenery(traffic cones, vending machines, mattresses etc....) , these are the figures that just stand there weaponless (when I did WSS I had 80+ civilians of which half were just eye candy) but thats it I love eye candy for any period of wargaming or roleplaying and for my survivor modern figures I have a lot of figures from different ranges that just stand there and look helpless.

These figures from hasslefree are excellent and the grandparents are from their villagers range and are listed as old man and old woman but look perfect as modern grandparents/elderly people plus the grandson who is listed as Parker on the website under adventures is a perfect figure to compliment them, they see him as a doting grandson but really he is a machete weilding killing machine who got his skills watching TV and playing video games.I stuck in a few figures for size comparison and yes they are small but they work perfectly for what they represent.



L to R 28mm Black Scorpion and 28mm Copplestone.

  1. They look great. I like seeing the extras that the give the table a more "real-life feel".
