Unboxing Zombicide: Black Plague by Cool Mini or Not

Unboxings Games is one of the things that Must Contain Minis enjoys sharing with its readers. Zombicide: Black Plague is a game that I wanted since the Kickstarter Campaign started. For Christmas, one of my family members bought me the retail version of the game. Let’s open it up and see what is in there.

Looking at Zombicide: Black Plague by Cool Mini or Not

Inside is a nicely done rule book.
Underneath it is a box of miniatures.

Under the box of miniatures is a series of gaming tiles and tokens.

Of course, what Must Contain Minis likes the most about any Board Game is the Miniatures. Below is a better look at the minis contained.

I was very impressed with these hero miniatures and they are begging to be painted. Now, let’s look at the Zombies of this game.

Because Must Contain Minis participates in many Miniatures-Agnostic games, I like to include a scale comparison between the miniatures in the game and other popular lines. Check these out…

Heroines Scale Comparison… Zombicide Miniature vs 32mm Reaper Pathfinder Miniature.

As one can see, the Zombicide figures all appear to be 32mm “true scale.” Although their features (heads, hands and weapons) are smaller than Reapers’ 32mm models, I believe that the Zombicide Miniatures are close enough that they can be used alongside the miniatures of other manufacturers.

I hope that everyone enjoyed this unboxing.

Until next time, Happy Gaming Everyone!!!

    I hope you actually played the game. The Zombicide series is quite fun even outside of just the painting aspect.. Cheers

      Kelly!!! Long time since I last chatted to you. Happy that you like the article. I actually have not played Zombicide much yet. There are just so many games to try out. 😉
