Punga Miniatures Bring The Undead To The Football Pitch
May 6, 2020 by brennon
Punga Miniatures are closing in on the FINAL HOURS of their Kickstarter packed full of Vampires, Egyptians & Necromancers. All of these undead denizens are looking to put together fun teams to play Fantasy Football on the tabletop.
Punga Miniatures have done some fantastic work in the past on alternative Fantasy Football teams and this selection of teams is no different. Their artists have done a great job of bringing some very fun and inventive miniatures to the tabletop (as seen in the Vampire Buccaneers above) that you could use as alternatives when playing games like Blood Bowl.
One of the key parts of this collection on Kickstarter is the fact that all of their miniatures look dynamic as if they are right in the midst of an on-field tussle. You even get that with a team as rickety and boney as the Sons Of Anubis that you can see here.
I really like that they dropped some different gods into the mix here to help make the team feel more diverse. Having Anubis and Horus taking on the role of Blitzers and Throwers makes thematic sense whilst also making them identifiable on the tabletop.
Even their more classic Necromancer Team has shaped up nicely and features loads of fun looking characters who have seen better days! Werewolves in particular always seem tough to try and create in miniature form but Punga Miniatures have done a good job here.
This Kickstarter campaign is well funded and that, of course, means that they have unlocked a lot of stretch goals and add-ons for the campaign. There is plenty for you to explore by checking out their Kickstarter HERE but one set that jumped out to us was this band of musicians!
I'm guessing that magic is more or less how they manage to play those instruments considering they have no lungs. Either that or it's a very sad and terrifying silent orchestra with the occasional scrape of bone on bone and twang of strings echoing into the night.
Make sure to give their Kickstarter a look as they enter their final hours...

Lol they are great looking figures.
Where’s O’Neal to takeout those goa’uld that’s hiding their.
The orchestra is worth backing alone, love the Eternal Freddy. They are all brilliant and a whole lot of fun, would love to field them all plus if you go to the Kickstarter they have a undead dwarf. Cracking stuff ??
Mirrored my thoughts exactly regarding the Orchestra. Also it’s the first time I have heard of this company.
I hadn’t heard of them either but one to watch I think ??
I like the teams, though haven’t played Blood Bowl or any equivalent game in a long time. But I absolutely love that undead orchestra.
