Modiphius Reveals Hard-Plastic Survivors Core Set for its Fallout Miniatures Games

Nov 5, 2025 | First Strike, New Mini News

The long-awaited Wasteland Survivors Core Set is back — and this time, it’s in hard plastic. Modiphius has officially opened pre-orders for the updated version of this classic Fallout: Wasteland Warfare starter box, which had been out of stock for ages.

The new plastic set includes ten 32 mm miniatures — nine scrappy survivors and one trusty dog — all ready to fight, scavenge, or just try to make it through another day in the wasteland. It’s fully compatible with both Fallout: Wasteland Warfare and Fallout: Factions, and ships unpainted with scenic bases.

TL;DR

  • New hard-plastic version of the classic resin set
  • Includes 9 survivors + 1 dog at 32 mm scale
  • Compatible with Wasteland Warfare and Factions, shipping late 2025

Why This Matters for Skirmish Gamers

For those who missed the original resin edition, this is great news — the new plastic kit should be easier to build, lighter on your wallet, and perfect for conversions. Plastic means less cleanup, more durability, and no brittle resin arms snapping mid-assembly (we’ve all been there).

Even better, these minis aren’t just for Fallout. If you’re playing Gangfight (we recommend using our First Strike rules) or any homebrew post-apocalyptic skirmish, this box gives you a ready-made posse of survivors, mercs, or raiders. Toss them into a wasteland-themed scenario, and they’ll fit right in alongside mutants, mechs, or outlaws.

The character mix is flexible enough to build a whole gang — from a grizzled veteran leader to scrappy scavengers and gun-toting survivors. Think of it as a perfect starting point for your own Fallout-style warband.

Hobby Take

Modiphius has been gradually shifting key Fallout kits from resin to plastic, and the results have been impressive. Hard plastic allows for cleaner detail, sharper mold lines, and easier kitbashing — especially for painters who love to personalize.

At around £40 GBP / $50 USD, it’s a solid buy for both Fallout collectors and cross-system players. Whether you’re repping Vault 76 or the Gangfight badlands, this one’s worth adding to your shelf.

Spectre Miniatures Launches Outbreak Range — Survivors vs. Zombies!

Spectre Miniatures Launches Outbreak Range — Survivors vs. Zombies!

Oct 31, 2025 | First Strike, New Mini News

The apocalypse has arrived—Spectre Miniatures just dropped their long-awaited Outbreak line, a full set of miniatures designed for tense urban survival skirmishes. The release includes survivors, elite task force units, and terrifying zombie hordes, giving players everything they need to stage modern horror encounters right on the tabletop.

TL;DR

Spectre Miniatures has launched a new Outbreak series including:

  • Survivors and Task Force units for small-squad play
  • Zombies and Task Force Zombies for undead combat scenarios
  • Perfect for modern, post-apocalyptic, or Gangfight-style skirmishes

The End Is Here — And It Looks Fantastic

The Outbreak range offers five distinct packs: Outbreak Survivors, Task Force Survivors, Task Force Zombies, and standalone Zombie packs—each sculpted with Spectre’s signature realism and gritty detail. These figures are perfectly suited for street-level firefights, quarantine-zone missions, or desperate last stands in ruined city blocks.

Each pack is available now through the Spectre Miniatures webstore, expanding the company’s modern warfare lineup into a full-blown survival horror sandbox. The crossover potential is huge—fans can mix Outbreak units with Spectre’s existing forces for covert operations gone horribly wrong.

Skirmish Relevance — Perfect for Gangfight Scenarios

For players using the Gangfight Skirmish Game System, the Outbreak range is ready-made for narrative campaigns. Survivors can slot in as Mavericks or Lawmen, while Task Force units fit right into a First Strike paramilitary force. Zombies, of course, make for ideal cursed adversaries—fast, disposable, and relentless.

With just a few packs, you can build multiple themed warbands or run narrative missions like “Containment Breach” or “Extraction Point.” It’s gritty, cinematic, and terrifying—everything skirmish gaming should be.
