Alternative Armies is delighted to restore to the world a range which inspired so many which followed it. At the dawn of the 1980s, Asgard Miniatures began their Fantasy Monsters (FM) range. We have worked hard to allow tabletop gamers, collectors and Asgard fans the chance to have these miniatures once more.

Asgard releases

The third round of releases is here. Large Oriental-style Trolls and Ogres (about 40mm tall), as well as Nick Bibby's Dragon Lizard Mount and its Human rider, plus a Chaos Lance from the Barbarian and Chaotic range. These join the two previous rounds of releases – meaning, just under 50 in total restored codes on the Tabletop Games and Asgard fantasy range pages.

Asgard releases
  • FM22 – V1 Oriental Ogre
  • FM22A – V1 Oriental Ogre Standard Bearer (same as FM22V1 with different open-hand weapon)

  • D8 – Dragon Lizard Human Rider (part of kit on page)

  • AFB10 – Chaos Lance

Each miniature is shown in a series of pictures and angles, with a total height listed to help you know their size. Total height is from sole of foot to top of highest part of the figure. In the case of long creatures, a total length is given the same way. Note: the remastered Storm Giant and the Giant Slug will get their own news later on as they are not quite ready yet…

Event

The Summer Mega Event 2022 is on, which means that until 5th September, you automatically get 20% off your order at check-out, plus a free Alternia miniature worth £2.50 GBP included free. More than 30 new releases and many deals and offers too. Full details on our blog!

Wagon Set

The MPS range has two small sets restored to the world on the Tabletop Games and Asgard fantasy range pages. There is MPS8 Orc Family Outing and MPS9 Wagon Set (see it above). Each of these sets can be had as a whole or any parts from it in any quantity.

Orc Rock Band

One of the first classics Alternative Armies restored was the most-asked-for. The Orc Rock Band! Remastered musicians and equipment, plus a now-resin and twice-the-size stage. You can have the whole band with stage, or select any of the parts of the set. We named our Orc band Spinal Crack!

We hope you enjoy our efforts to keep such wonderful classics in production, and we are continuing with this project, and each time we get further codes online, we will let you know.

Thanks for Your Time!
