Pure Evil Minis Bring Fighting Fantasy Villains To Life!
September 24, 2014 by brennon
Do you remember Zagor the Warlock? How about the Lizard King? These were villainous foes from the world of Fighting Fantasy and they are going to be reincarnated in miniature form by Pure Evil Miniatures!
First up we have the Shapechanger from Forest of Doom, the Bloodbeast from Deathtrap Dungeon and the Lizard King from Island of the Lizard King complete with his snarling Black Lion.
Next up is the Brain Flayer, Creature of Havoc, Zagor the Warlock and Zanbar from the City of Thieve. All of these miniatures have been made in high quality resin and Ian Livingstone himself has insisted on quality over quantity when it comes to the sculpts and the production behind it all.
They do look like stunning miniatures and great re-creations of the original artwork even from this small preview. The chaps behind it, Pure Evil, will be taking them to Kickstarter in 2015!
Thanks to Raphael Perry for the images!

… so much nostalgia (¡ ~ ¡)
Now this is something that I never thought I would see. Those are really nice and there is that nostalgia factor as well.
Cor that takes me back. Was the bloodbeast instadeath or just really hard to survive?
Fighting Fantasy is where it all started for me. Remember finding the Citadel of Chaos on my cousins desk and reading it all weekend. I was 8 at the time and pronounced it “chay-oos” for years lol
YES! Great miniatures!!! Such a classic world full of iconic characters.
The FF gamebooks and worlds are a fundamental influence on millions of gamers from my generation. They still publish them and the Advanced Fighting Fantasy RPG system.
I remember large carded plastic FF models of Orcs, Fighters and such in the 80’s, and it’s awesome to see new miniatures being produced. One of my local DM’s is also running an Allansia campaign out of Port Blacksand using D&D 5th edition and the Titan and Blacksand sourcebooks printed by Arion. This is great news for FF Fans!!
And I was sooo trying not to go to Kickstarter any more….
Otherworld Miniatures have a version of Zagor out now to: http://otherworldminiatures.co.uk/shop/ff-series-official-fighting-fantasy-miniatures/ff01-zagor-the-warlock-of-firetop-mountain-limited-edition/
Ooh? WhenWhenWhen? 🙂
Though on a side note: always LOVED Fighting Fantasy’s “Two Reverse Horns” Take on the Lizard Man, but can NEVER seem to find ANY miniatures that match those illustrations: Any chance you fellas will produce 6 or so figures that match the FF Lizard Men?
As stretch goals to the Kickstarter, perhaps?
A “SORCERY!” line of unique Khakabadian characters/creatures would also be nice! 🙂
