The Chaos All Stars 2018
Step 19 - Will it never end!?!
Way back when in Step 14, I mentioned how I had backed Willy Miniatures kickstarter for their resin Chaos team, only to obtain some more Chaos Star Player miniatures.
Well needless to say those still haven’t arrived (which is odd because the Vampire Resin Team I bought from them turned up ages ago – but that is another story)…..So time I have been awaiting my Chaos players, I started having a nose around the internet on various Blood Bowl sites and found names of other All Star players.
Acid Scarred Max
Ruddog Ironhead
Rex Farsight
Spider Smith
to name but a few. Well after searching for awhile, I found a forum that mentioned that for some Unofficial Blood Bowl tournament a number of custom miniatures had been created and given away. This of course lead me down a rabbit hole, where I found a whole Chaos All Star team for sale on Ebay, using a combination of casts from Phil Lewis’ original All Star Players, and some others who have been created more recently (I think the last one I found was from 2015 – 2016).
From there I found a company called Impact Miniatures who sell at rather generous prices casts of some of these figures.
The only issue being size – Phil’s team were 28mm and the current Blood Bowl minis are closer to 32mm.
Any who, long story – somewhat shorter, I have bought some!
I currently have a Rex Farsight, V’hnn “Snakey” Qllss Zzchhtrr, Ruddog Ironhead, and Spider Smith.
However Spider Smith is quite small (I think that one we can get away with) but Ruddog Ironhead looks tiny in comparison to everyone else – although he was meant to be larger. There is another one of him kicking about on Ebay at the moment so if i can get definite news of him being 32mm i may buy him again.
I have attached some pics of what the minis look like, these aren’t my versions however, so far all I have done is glue them together and base coat them.
More to follow when the true work begins!
*UPDATE * The very nice people at Impact Miniatures have actually sent me a replacement Ruddog Ironhead at 32 mm scale – at no extra cost! Which is jolyl decent of them.
