Carnivorous Plants Part II

Thanks to all the chaps who so kindly directed me to other sources of man-eating members of the Plant Kingdom!

QRF have a range of '15mm' scale (Actually standing about 17-18mm tall) plants, various types including spine shooters, stranglers and grapplers.

It would also seem that Armorcast arent quite as OOP as I originally thought - Ive always loved the "Medium Man-trap."

Hydra Miniatures also have their new "plant men" - just the thing for Venus I think!

The 'Mouth-arm' by Emperor Miniatures reminds me a lot of the nasties at the bottom of the crevice in the new King Kong movie

Carnivorous Plants

I'm currently scanning for some vegetative nasties to inhabit Venus/the Lost World/Skull Island etc




Here are some nice looking ones from the Wargames Supply Dump and at 1pund each the price is nice enough to make a small forest of them! Though there are 25mm scale, who says carnivorous trees have to be small? So these would be quite acceptable carnivorous trees for my 15mm Dinosaur Hunters

HLBS also sells some man-eating plants, this time Triffids (shown here) and again in 28mm. Watch out or that stinger could knock over one's crystal decanter!

Any more out there? I know Amourcast used to do some lovely ones in resin but they are sadly now discontinued...
