Pathfinder Battles—Builder Series: Undead Horde

Announced here!

Shouldn't this be listed under the Pathfinder Battles link with all the rest of the Pathfinder Battle miniatures?

It should! It's been fixed. :D

Are the individual packs going to become available prior to shipping of subscriptions? I'd like to add some to my order if so.

(Would adding to my sidecart get them shipped with the order next week?)

They should be off preorder now. I'm running the order spawning right now, so make sure you check to see if you need to add it to a pending order before submitting the order.

Updated product description with set list.

I purchased a display case of the Undead Horde from my local retailer. Taking it home, I opened the packages to find I received at least one of each of the 12 figures. I got 3 of each of the Skeleton, Lady Ghoul, Ghoul, Zombie, Wight, and Festrog figures. All-in-all, I was very happy with the collection and appearance of the figures in the case.

Y'all just don't want me to have any money do ya?

so will we see a daemon army builder set next?

How about slimes, oozes and swarms? That would be cool :)

Or familiars and animal companions?

(of course, the issue with those is that they won't have quite the draw that undead and goblins do)

Familiars/ animal companions/ summon sets seem to be a pretty popular suggestion, actually.

City Guards

Bandits

Mercenaries

Soldiers

Orcs

Kobolds

I'm sure Eric has been thinking of all of these things.

I love the idea of a summon monster/ally set!

lower level monsters should be more common because they are more likely to be cast as higher level for 1d3 or 1d4+1.

Has anyone received their Undead Horde yet?

I got mine today and all three of my skeletons are primarily a grey color. There is splash of white on the torso area below the ribs, but other than that is mostly a charcoal grey.

Is it supposed to be like that? Those who have received their Horde, are your skeletons the same?

The photo given for the skeleton looks like it is supposed to be white.

My skeletons are the same.

I am very happy with the set.

I ordered two from Paizo, then a couple of more festrogs and wraiths on ebay.

Yeah, looked up the skeleton on ebay, and an actual photo taken of the mini (not stock photo), and it does have the charcoal grey look.

With the Paizo stock photo (or maybe it was done by WizKids), the bone on the skeleton does look white. I think I’m going to touch it up with some ‘dirty’ white and then dry brush it and see how I like it.

Additional sets like this would be great for new GMs or potential GMs without hundreds of dollars to drop on cases. Commonly used lower level monsters, animal companions, familiars, summons, etc. I'd like to be able to start a collection while still sending my kids to daycare and without the wife freaking out on me :-)

Erik mentioned in one of the Miniature Blogs that the builder packs weren't selling well enough to continue making more :( So it may be awhile before we see anymore of these sets.

Just opened my Undead Horde, and most of the figures are excellent, but the lich is horrible, and not much like the paint master. So bad I'm going to see if I can pay (sigh) Wizkids for a replacement, because a rare has no business having that many errors and missed paint steps.

The other rares thankfully came through, as did the non-rares.

Mostly posting because of the questions about quality control with regards to Legends of Golarion - I've got one from this set (of 24) that's really off-model, and unfortunately it's one of the six rare figures.

After so many boosters, still no graveknight, lady ghoul, mummy cleric or wraith! *snif*

My players better beware the wrath of the wight horde...

Hmmm... I think my lich was okay, although probably not as well-painted as the paint master.

That is why I bit the bullet and bought a full box. I wanted to make sure I got them all.

I do like the Grave Knight and I liked the Mummy Cleric so much he replaced the original as the leader of my desert undead. :-)

Heh, that was a wise choice; I may have to do that, too. I have also bought something like 50+ goblin boosters so far, and have got maybe three or four rares. That isn't so bad, because I need tons of common and uncommon goblins; the next session in my campaign is going to feature an army of 500 goblins, and I want to scare my players by the sheer number of minis on the flip-mat! ;)

Don't forget to take pictures. ;-)

Why on earth would you do that if you were trying to get the rares? You could just do what I did, and buy two entire displays (48 packs). That would probably end up with you getting two each of the six rare figures, and six each of the six common ones. (That's exactly what I got).

Well, the reason is simple: money. As a librarian I may have a steady income, but it's not that much, considering that I live in a country where taxes and prices are high (and librarians are not paid very well). I may have something like 200-300 euros to spend on RPGs on a good month, but usually it's far less than that. And Paizo keeps putting out great books and maps I want to buy as well. So I might have something like 50-100 euros set aside for minis, and that includes the PF Battles sets, too. That is why I usually buy a few boosters at a time.

Also, I thought that it's okay, because I'll need a horde of goblin minis for the battle anyway, especially common ones. I *do* want the rares, so I'm probably going to do what you suggested once I've saved some money to pay for my student loan (yeah, even after all these years I still have a few thousand euros to pay). Or I might get them on the secondary market.

a set i would love to see:
therianthropes.
minotaurs, serpent folk, there-anything etc.

and i think there's enough figures to do it already...

Got my box and distribution was a little off in mine.
i got the usual 1 of each rare and 3 of each common except i had no
zombies, 3 mummy lords and an extra wight.

i like the mummy lord a lot and since i am planning a naval/aquatic campaign i welcome the extra wight.

anyways i love the format of these sets and can't wait til my goblins get here.

also can't wait for the next sets to be announced.
i'm gonna guess the next one is going to be kobolds since there are
a bunch of new models in the LoG set. there's like 6 or 7 sculpts now.

Anyone willing to make some trades?

My son loves the skeleton. We have probably purchased over 30 undead horde models in trips to the FLGS. We almost always nab him a few of these or the goblins.

I have a squadron of zombies, a flight of festrogs, and a murder of mummies. However, we only had one skeleton, and it broke last weekend after years of priority play time.

I have almost every model from the Pathfinder Battles line, except Heroes and Monsters or Legends of Golarion. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Thank you!

Ben

Edit: I live in Maryland

there is the unpainted "Bones" skelly figures available spear, sword and shield, and bow, just a quick wash of dilute black/dark Gray to fill in cracks and a quick clear coat and ready to go, add detail as needed. I cant remember who distributes them, but they also had pre-painted versions in three packs. Deep Cuts should work as well, though haven't had time to test paint on them yet. the Dungeon Command "Curse of Undeath" set is also good to look at. I do have a bit of a collection, but I share it with friends here in town for gaming sessions as they come up and are needed.

I put this item in my cart and the below message appears:

This product has been discontinued by the manufacturer or is no longer being carried by our distributor.

It looks like I can proceed with the purchase, so I am wondering why the message is there.

It means that once they sell out whatever they have in their warehouse, they won't be getting any more.

I see. Thanks for the prompt reply!

Yes, this is correct. They originally released in 2013 and were never reprinted. The fact that we still have some in stock is surprising to me.

Unfortunately both of the "Builder Series" were notoriously bad sellers, so Wizkids discontinued the series after this second one. ;-(

Personally i like all the sculpts, though the commons could be a little more generic.

Maybe I'll get a second case. SO MANY UNDEAD. ^_^

I'm doing this. If others can't see the value, that's their problem! :)

Lady Ghoul,

That's no lady, that's my Ghoul-friend !
