As well as running Meridian Miniatures for the last 6 years I have been involved in the wider miniatures hobby in my spare time. I have always loved classic dungeon monsters so last year I set about producing them for general release. After my first figure, the Bugbear Champion was so successful I have decide to expand his cohort to include a full tribal pack!
Pictured above we have, in order: the bugbear Matron, boy, girl, toddler and Shaman. These figures should provide a fun narrative element to your next dungeon delve or wilderness encounter as well as being fantastic to paint and collect in their own right. Take a look at the individual figures below.
The Bugbear Matron, as deadly a cavewife as can be encountered. Armed with her trusty cleaver whilst brandishing the meaty femur of some unfortunate subterranean megafauna that became the family’s last meal.
The mystic Bugbear Shaman. Bedecked with ritual accouterments and magical trinkets, he casts his eyes up to the dark gods, throwing the most ominous hand gesture skywards.
The Kids! Left to right we have a teenage boy, mohawked with slingshot at the ready, his sister with a sack of rocks ready to join in with the hail of projectiles and the Bugbaby Toddler armoured in his onesie and wielding a very dangerous looking rattle! See below for individual pics.
I have set up two pledge levels, one for those that want the new set and one that will allow folks that missed the first campaign to add the Champion figure pictured below.
Again I have decided to set up a modest Kickstarter to fund the production and enable people to get their hands on this homage to classic dungeon gaming. The figures will be cast in pewter by Griffin Moulds here in the UK and supplied with gaming bases.
The figures are already with the mouldmaker so bar extraordinary circumstances all should go according to plan.
