Gamma World Baddies 1

First batch of Gamma World baddies, one "Brain Lasher" (which is from the Mutant Future game but is essentially a Mind Flayer) and 6 Morlocks.  I wanted my Morlocks to look like the ones in the classic 1960's "The Time Machine" movie.  These pictures didn't turn out too great, but I'm really happy with how the figures turned out, I just wish you could see them better in the photographs.
Their construction is new.  You can't really see this because of their "skirts" but the body is a elongated bead on its side to make the figure's chest and shoulders glued to a barrel bead which makes up the torso, and then the legs are a small tapered plug.  Feet and arms are tile spacers, weapons are tile spacers or tooth picks, and shields are precut wooden pieces I got in a bag at a craft store.  Hair is paper as are the "skirts."
Morlocks are supposed to be high tech guys so the fellow in the middle has a futuristic "shock spear" and most of the others have guns of some type.  The one with to the right of the Morlock armed with the shock spear has a vibroblade but it's hard to see it in this picture.

 The Brain Lasher is blurry, sorry about that.  His construction is also pretty new.  I used a hot glue gun on his head to give him the wrinkles and I put hot glue over the paper face tentacles as well to give them more "body."  His shoulders and chest are made up of a tapered bead on its side just like the Morlocks glued on top of another tapered bead that is vertical which creates the torso and the upper legs.  On the bottom of the vertical tapered bead is a small tapered plug that gives him the impression of wearing calf-high boots, but you can't really see that in this picture.
Also not a great picture, but there he is.
As the automatic door in front of them slides open, the adventurers stumble upon a Brain Lasher and his Morlock allies in the depths of an abandoned military facility!
