They came from across the galaxy or from just one planet up the street, from the atomic bomb testing grounds, grown large and irritable, or from the bottom of a swamp. They always wanted something -- our relatively clean and fresh planet, or our brains, or our oddly pointy-breasted women -- or simply feared that we would soon achieve space travel and then forget about it, there goes the neighborhood.
They were green, or blue, or were black-and-white -- the colour of normal stock footage animals. They wore metallic costumes, or nothing at all. Our weapons were useless against them, and sometimes they teased us about our primitive technology, which was mean of them. Other times they simply chittered as they massed to break down the last barrier door to swarm over us, pincers flexing.
Whoever they were, whatever they were ... They Came from Planet 15.
THOSE! Giant Ants
THOSE! painted by .

The rescuers, too late to save most of the family, found the little girl in a crawlspace in the shredded mobile home -- just a tiny spot too small for even THOSE to get her. THOSE? Yes, that's all she kept saying as the police chief interrogated her: "THOSE! THOSE! THOSE!"
And soon the desert, irradiated by nuclear bomb tests, was crawling with THOSE, giant ants, four or five feet long, swarming in their thousands, tilting over Greyhound buses and pouring through the doors, carrying their screaming victims away and deep into huge anthills ... to serve as food for the larvae.
And now they are massing in the millions, heading for the great city that rose up from the desert....
Giant ants to provide a serious nuisance to 28mm models, a menace to 15mm opponents, and virtual apocalypse to the smaller scales. Two poses, ant bodies are 12mm long including nasty mandibles.

Escargon -- the BEAST that CONFRONTED the GLOBE
Escargon painted by . Model has a small water base sculpted on; Neldoreth attached it to a larger base (not included). |
Their eggs lay dormant for millions of years under the Chesapeake, until a rock concert caused reverberations that shattered the very earth itself, leading to the hatching of Escargon, a monstrous BEAST that will stop at nothing until it has CONFRONTED the entire GLOBE! Soon Escargon has laid millions of eggs, and its progeny are lumbering under the waves, then up and out, onto the dry land, the domain of Man himself.
And now the rock-and-roll misfits in their leather jackets and hotrods must convince the adults that "the monsters are REAL!" and stop these fiends from leaving a slime trail ... across Washington DC itself!
Huge snail monster with a face. Model is 25mm tall. To see this model crawling across dry land, see Neldoreth's website, .
