Sculpted as part of the Weekly One Five competition, this is the first jugger team inspired by the movie Blood of Heroes.

I've wanted to do a team or two ever since I first saw the movie. The Weekly One Five was the right motivation at the right time.

A second team will be completed over the next several weeks.

These will be made available as part of my Gideon's Dust post apocalypse range of figures. Each team will be 5 figures: Slash, Quick, Chain, Drive and Hook. They are sized to be compatible with most new 15mm ranges.

Enjoy and happy gaming.

Bloody lovely. Great sculpts.

Absolutely great! Already cast…unreal…I am still sculpting mine.

Rod you are the man!

The combined action of all the poses is inspired well done. And they have other uses in 15mm, not just for the post apocalyptic sports team that they are!

Again, impressive Rod.

28mmMan07 Feb 2011 12:36 p.m. PST

Scary thing for the other team…your quick (the one in the crouched position :) she is a beast! Stand her up and you have an amazon, which is fun as most other quicks are tiny.

I like her big, adds a certain element of danger and purpose.

Rod you did yourself proud with this group.

Rodrick Campbell Fezian07 Feb 2011 12:46 p.m. PST

They aren't cast yet. The teams should both be available after Cold Wars probably around the end of March. That depends on the mold makers schedule, though.

Yeah, the Quick is a bit tall. The one for the second team is smaller.

I thought they looked cast and primed! LOL

Either way great job.

Definately a great reason to get me into 15mm. Beautiful stuff.

Are there any rules or mods for Juggball?

"Are there any rules or mods for Juggball?"

I received the first draft of them today. Not sure how these will be made available yet, but the time frame is Historicon or a bit earlier.

Great an very charcterfull !

I hope for a line inspired by not-meinstream post apo movies of the 80-ties (just pass on the Italian ones… :)

Don't have any new observations, but I thought I'd add this for context:

Not sure about Juggball, but they're nice figs :)

Thank you for the context. I had no idea what a Jugger was.

Love that movie and love your sculpts. Great job!!!

BRUTALPAUL08 Feb 2011 12:11 a.m. PST

Really nice!
So full of detail!
They look better than many 28mm minis.

Klebert L Hall08 Feb 2011 4:55 a.m. PST

Are you going to make any with naval training?

Rogue Zoat08 Feb 2011 7:04 a.m. PST

Crusty Jugglers!

Oh… Juggers… Never mind :(


These look great!!

Stronty Girl Fezian08 Feb 2011 7:19 a.m. PST

Is that the Rutger Hauer post-apocalypse movie? It was called Salute to the Jugger when I saw it.

Cool sculpts.

Rodrick Campbell Fezian08 Feb 2011 7:26 a.m. PST

"Is that the Rutger Hauer post-apocalypse movie?"

Yes, same movie. I'm not sure when or why it was released under two different names, but "blood of heroes" is part of a line in the film.

Caesar08 Feb 2011 7:27 a.m. PST

Love that movie, love the models.

Twisted Metal08 Feb 2011 9:24 a.m. PST

It was released as "Salute of the Jugger" in the UK too. I love these miniatures, can't wait to see the rules!

You did good my friend.
Now all we need to do is finish the rest up in two months…or less.
