Westfalia Miniatures Bring The Rakshasa King To IndieGoGo
October 23, 2020 by brennon
Westfalia Miniatures is now on IndieGoGo looking to fund the creation of an amazing model by Boris Woloszyn. This here is The Rakshasa King who looks awfully similar to a certain someone...
The Rakshasa King // Westfalia Miniatures
This miniature is just one of three that you can including in your games, whatever they may be. The Rakshasa is an awesome monster from Dungeons & Dragons which can be quite the thorn in the side of a group of adventures. Now you can weave a tale around one of them and learn of his past.
As well as being available in his Rakshasa form you can also pick up the Young version of him which could also be an impressive glamour.

In addition to the Rakshasa here, you will also be able to snag a couple of additional characters too. You can also get your hands on the Nemesis...

...and the Nemesis' Assistant which can be looked at over on the IndieGoGo page. All of the miniatures here are available in 32mm and the campaign is simply working towards producing these miniatures and getting them out there into the world. There are no bonuses, no pledge managers, it's a simple campaign with a core aim.
I think these miniatures look great and would be a really fun addition to a roleplaying adventure. Imagine revealing this to your players as they head down into their next dungeon?

Those are stunning. Lovely work
Hm…. but why IndieGoGo? Is Kickstarter taking too big a cut? 😉
For such a small project it probably made sense to go with IGG yeah. Plus, they are already running Dragongrin on KS.
Why not IndieGoGo?
It’s a personal thing. IndieGoGo takes your money even if the goal isn’t matched. There where some shady deal there. (Not saying Westfalia is shady just some projects on IGG)
I think it’s up to the IndieGoGo project creator if that’s the case or not.
not allowed to run two kickstarters simultaneously
That never kept CMON from doing more then one 😉
Main reason is that this is not a crowdfunding campaign but a pre-order campaign.
And yes, KS is clogged, takes a huge cut, and we use it for actual crowd-funding.
Thanks for the statement. 🙂 And please never get someone in Europe to distribute your lovely stuff…. My wallet is having nightmares over that though for ages 😉
I think we’re planning to go to Salute and Tactica when shows are back on again!
Cheers SD!
Tactica sadly won’t happen before 2022 so…. time enough to but some savings aside… XD
Those look really nice.
I don’t like The Rakshasa King himself, but i like the young version and his Nemesis. The zombie is looking good too.
Oh Joe Exotic! How we love to mock you!
This made me laugh out loud once I’d scrolled past the Rakshasa and my brain had time to process what I was seeing.
nice figures the rakshasa king rings a bell.
The Rakshasa King’s hands are on backwards.
Very true – they should be reversed!
1st thimg I noticed
The Rakshasa comes with separate hands.
I just received my first order from Westfalia miniatures last Friday, and tbh I was slightly disappointed with the quality of the cast. I expected better from a boutique miniature company (at least that is what I considered them).
There was a lot of flash, delicate parts broken off, and missing (not in bag) and overlapping from over-tightened moulds. I will think twice before buying from them again, unless the they have larger figures that are not so delicate.
Sorry for being the party-pooper, but I though cogs should be prepared.
Hi Nightrunner,
I am sorry you’re not happy with the minis we’ve sent to you.
We have a comprehensive policy to make sure customers get flawless items, but the costumers need to make us aware of such issues.
If you like, then we can take that forward at [email protected]
Hi westfalia, Thanks for answering, it was unexpected, but I am happy you took an interest. If anything it shows your commitment to your product. My order contained two of both Grandfather Bullrog and Ulrike and Ulrik. A pair for me and a friend. I ended up giving my friend the best of both sculpts in order not to fall out with him. I usually don’t bother with complaining about products I am not happy with unless I really need them for a project. In this case I just wanted the figures, so I didn’t bother. In these cases I… Read more »
No worries NR,
I really would feel like a crook if I’d consciously send bad product out, but with mass KS fulfilment, it can’t be completely avoided. Please contact me at [email protected] – I will hand pick some extra clean minis for you and send them to you. Photos – not necessary but appreciated as they help to improve with mold-making.
Best,
Kawe
I’ve bought quite a lot and always been happy, flash I don’t care about but even then Kawe saw an unboxing and despite my protestations replaced the model even though it was 2 mins work with a tooth brush to remove it.
Hi, So I had made an order from Westfalia Miniatures, and I had some problems with it. I decided to inform the community here so they could make an informed decision when purchasing from WM. After posting the comment, Kawe from WM answered the comment and offered to solve the problem. I sent him some pictures of the issues in the miniatures and he answered back very quickly offering me a total replacement. Usually companies offer replacement of only the defective product. I was very surprised and satisfied with the extremely high level of customer service that Mr Kawe offers… Read more »
