Kingdoms Army Box  

Dec 2004 




Ogres, the massive and ravenous brutes of the Warhammer Fantasy universe, are a race of fearsome humanoid creatures known for their insatiable appetite and formidable strength. Towering over ordinary humans, Ogres possess a hulking physique, with thick, muscular bodies and tough hides that serve as natural armor.

Hailing from the harsh and unforgiving lands known as the Ogre Kingdoms, these nomadic creatures roam the desolate wastelands in search of food and plunder. Their society revolves around the concept of "might makes right," with strength and brutality determining hierarchy and leadership among their tribes.

Ogres are infamous for their voracious appetite, devouring anything edible in their path, including livestock, beasts, and even other sentient beings. Their diet includes not only raw meat but also metals, stones, and other indigestible materials, a trait that has earned them the moniker of "the Gutbusters."

Space Marine Veteran Sergeant
Nov 2004


The Space Marines, the iconic and indomitable warriors of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, are genetically-enhanced super soldiers created for the sole purpose of defending the Imperium of Man. Forged through arcane and rigorous processes, these mighty warriors stand as the Emperor's ultimate weapon against the myriad threats that besiege the grim and dark future of the 41st millennium.

Each Space Marine is a product of gene-seed manipulation and indoctrination from one of the various Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes, the overarching organization of Space Marines. These Chapters are diverse, each with its own heraldry, traditions, and combat doctrines, but they all share a common genetic heritage that links them to the Emperor of Mankind.

Bretonian army box
jun 2004


The bearer and the flag are the only limited edition bits, the original came with a simple plastic horse that was not LE. i will be swapping the horse for a much more extravagant one before i paint it 


In the fantastical world of Warhammer Fantasy, the Bretonnians are a chivalrous and noble human faction known for their romanticized and Arthurian-inspired culture. Hailing from the land of Bretonnia, a feudal realm characterized by vast plains, dense forests, and towering castles, the Bretonnians embody the ideals of knightly honour and the code of chivalry.

The Bretonnian society is organized around a strict feudal hierarchy, with a ruling class of noble lords and ladies who govern their territories with a sense of nobility and duty. At the heart of Bretonnian society is the Grail, a sacred quest that knights embark upon in the pursuit of virtue and purity, seeking the mythical Lady of the Lake. The Lady is a revered deity, and her blessing is believed to grant strength and divine favour to those deemed worthy.

In battle, the Bretonnians field powerful and heavily armoured knights, mounted atop majestic warhorses. These knights are the epitome of martial prowess, wielding lances and charging with thunderous impact, often supported by archers, foot soldiers, and mystical Grail Reliquae. The Bretonnian army places a strong emphasis on the charge and the honour-bound conduct of their knights, making them a formidable force on the battlefield.
