Last October I posted a shelfie as I noticed a Army Men vs Zombies bucket of "soldiers" in a Swedish toy store located at the border not so far from where I live. It was clearly promoted in the shop due to Halloween was coming up. I did not buy a bucket because I think it was a bit too pricey and contained The Corps futuristic Army Men which I literally has buckets of already. Besides I think the zombies looked a bit too chuncky.
As it's often more economical to buy groceries in Sweden than in Norway and we don't actually live that far away from the border, we sometimes do our shopping there. When I was there yesterday I also stopped by a Swedish toy store to have a look as they often sell things there like Norwegian shops don't. -Like army men. And so it was this time as well.
In the shop I found another bucket of 'Army Men vs Zombies' at about half the price as the bucket I saw in October.




Good luck with your quest to create a zombie game.
ReplyDeleteThank you. To do accordingly to the rest of this blog and my wargaming it must be something 'budget' way. I think Thor Sheil made a 'Zombie appendix' to one of his rules. It might have been OMOG.
DeleteI think converting cheap and nasty Army Men to Zombies is a far more interesting (and less expensive!) way to approach this Roger
ReplyDeleteI think you're right Maudlin Jack.This project is pretty far from workbench yet though.
DeleteThe fine inexpensive art of the shelfie!
ReplyDelete- which I got inspired to try my self after reading several of your 'shelfies' on your Pound Store Warriors blog. Thanks!
