Hi All – Does any manufacturer produce 15mm/20mm skaters and bikers/bikes from the film 'Rollerball'. I've found a lovely set of rules and printed arena for the game and would like to buy a couple of teams.

Space marines from GW will do well for the bikes and the only skater I know of is a female from Reaper not sure of any males. Hasslefree make some nice female football players you could add skates to and if you find any american football players they should work. Good luck

I seem to remember a "not-Rollerball" game advertised in Dragon mazagine, way back in '80 or so. It came with minis, IIRC…

This one comes up so often here on TMP, I'm really surprised that no one has produced "not-Rollerball" minis yet. Here are related TMP links: TMP link TMP link TMP link TMP link TMP link TMP link

I know I found an Ice Hockey version of Blood Bowl. That might work with some modifications. Kind of similar maybe.

"News From Bree" had a rollerball game in the one issue I managed to get my hands on. (Way back when…)

Impact games do bloodbowl style miniatures – conversion possibilities perhaps?

Did no one notice he asked for 15-20mm figures?

In what universe are 28mm space marine figures (or Reaper, or Copplestone) workable for a 15-20mm arena?

For my part, I've never run across anything in those scales (15mm or 20mm) that would fit the bill.

Photo enlargement. If you cannot find the figs to fit the board, fit the board to the figs :)

Here are a few bikes in 20mm. They are choppers so you might have to chop them up to make them look proper. :-)

I am about to order some stuff from here since I have been bitten by the car wars bug.
