Pesky Goblins Scamper Out Of Atlantis Miniatures’ Cave
November 8, 2019 by brennon
Atlantis Miniatures have been showing off some neat looking releases for those who want to build up a greenskin force on the tabletop. As well as a few Orcs in the mix the collection also includes some pesky looking Goblins which I wanted to focus on here.
Each of the models is packed with character and they break down into three miniatures per set, ready to be used as potential foes in a dungeon-delving adventure or possibly the core of a skirmishing force which is hitting the battlefield in one of the myriad number of Fantasy games out there.
Each of the models is unique and gives you a look at a different selection of Goblins who taken up different roles within your clan. I like the idea of potentially using them as leaders for your force instead, painting them up with warpaint and such and really making them a focus.
As well as the male versions of these Goblins they also have a set of Female Goblins which are sniggering and backstabbing their way into our hearts too.
These models are no doubt going to be a joy to paint. I've had the pleasure of checking out the final Dwarf models from their collection and they are very finely crafted with a lot of the detail you see here in the renders preserved at the end of the process. To that end, I would imagine these Goblins would be much the same.
Finally, we have this gruff-looking Goblin Assassin which reminds me very much of Styx from the video game of the same name.
I love the idea of using this fellow as a character in your roleplaying games rather than simply as part of an army. Armed with his duel daggers he would make for a perfect Rogue that has decided to leave the cave behind and pursue a more lucrative career as an adventurer and mercenary.
What do you make of the models?

Fabulous looking figures with plenty of details to them.
Holy moley and buckets of blood!
At last, someone who just doesn’t copy the GW goblin standard, but instead makes them full of character.
I shall personally hunt down and defenestrate the first person to paint these green 😉
Any idea when these are going to KS or the store? I already have their female ogres and am very impressed with the quality of them.
A bit too much muscle mass for my taste… but well sculpted especially the hooded dude
I agree…they’ve been to the gym and eating their Wheaties. Or maybe an slow orc or two.
It’s great that they’re expanding the core range. If you’re reading this, I’d love to see a few goblin archers join the ranks!
Also I heard there are more trolls on the way.
Now those goblins are looking good. By their final dwarfs did you mean the final version of the dwarfs from their kickstarter campaign or some new dwarf sculpts we haven’t seen yet?
Wow! Stocking stuffer please!
