The heavy infantry from the two "Undead" infantry sets from Dark alliance, the other being the light infantry. There´s also two "Undead" cavalry sets, heavy and light, which each come with 10 mounted bods and two command type foot bods.
Even from the box art it´s easy to see that they appear more battered and campaign weary than actually "Undead" looking. Apart from some grim looking faces and a mild bone like look on some forearms (which could be taken as over developed muscles) there isn´t a lot to actually confirm them as "undead" which is, as far as I´m concerned, a Bonus.

40 bods, 10 x 4 sprues. A good mix of active and inactive poses and some conversion potential.

The only bod that I´m not too pleased with, the one on the right with the flail. Better to cut it off and make him into a Spear/ Standard bearer.

Added into a norman shieldwall These would blend in quite well.

The poor bod on the left has lost his right boot!! See what I mean about the skeletal forearms?

The poses allow for creating a good looking shieldwall

The same bods with a quick paintjob as the "Undead". Straight from the sprue, no Flash removed, which shows how little flash actually needed removing for the ones above.
