A Mongrol of a Mek is Soon to Appear in Judge Dredd
December 3, 2014 by dracs
As well as the upcoming Judge Dredd Miniatures Game supplement Blood on the Streets, Warlord Games have a couple more miniatures from the pages of 2000AD on the way and have given us a quick peek at the first of the ABC Warriors.
Mongrol is undoubtedly the muscle of the ABC Warriors (robots designed to withstand atomic, biological and chemical attacks) and is something of a hodge-podge creation. His body was destroyed in an attack and a girl named Lara rebuilt him from scavenged parts. However, Lara was soon killed and Mongrol tortured, leaving him in a bestial state of mind.
It's exciting to see these robots appear as, where most scifi robots look as though they stepped off a production line, the ABC Warriors have a definite individuality and character to each of them. It will be interesting to hear how they play once the new supplement has been released.
Do you play the Judge Dredd Miniatures Game? Is there any character that you particularly want Warlord to create?

I can’t say I’m a fan of the sculpt. I’d be an easy mark for a set of ABC Warriors minis but this leaves me cold.
That is not Mongrol..A complete set of ABC Warriors would be nice though
If 40k orks would build robot it might look like that.
I’m kinda with redben on this; big fan of the ABC Warriors, but this doesn’t work for Mongrol at all for me. I think its the pose and setting him too high on straight legs. Mongrol looks best resting on its massive fists looking suitably belligerent.
ThreeA’s version nails it, but I think this misses somewhat for me. Nice to see a dynamic pose attempted, but I don’t think the sculptor hasn’t quite pulled it off.
Have you got a link to the ThreeA’s version?
