DH19 Baggage Turtle released 28mm Fantasy

"Swim the seas of trade across the ocean to being the finest things to the mountain holds of the Dwarfs.  The Gnomes are masters of commerce and welcome the gold of the deep Kings."

A promised new release to cap off our overhauling of the entire Dwarf Hosts (DH) 28mm Fantasy Range is here. Something rather different and special to go with with your Dwarfs, Gnomes and Halflings.  No mere donkey with load; oh no...this one can swim!

DH19 Baggage Turtle with Gnome Rider:  One resin Turtle covered in mixed baggage and a metal Gnome rider who sits atop it.  Excellent for your campaigning and a real eye catching piece.  Sculpted by Kieran Billings.  It is 50mm long and 40mm tall with rider. You can choose from the pack or parts of the pack. Get the rider on his own or the Baggage Turtle to put other riders upon it.


An Elder Dwarf Wizard and the demi giant Fnorr for scale next to the Baggage Turtle.  

The Overhaul Project has taken a whole month but it is now complete.  As well as every one of the seventy odd Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings being on the site as a single with new pictures they are also in value packs with a saving plus the mega multitude. Requested by wargamers the DHM01 Dwarf Multitude Miniature Set contains one of EVERY pose in the DH range with a bigger saving.  Get it all in one go.


Here is a line up for comparative sizing of the denizens of the DH Range.  From the smallest to the largest with sculpting by Dave Gallagher, Andy Cooper, Mike Owen and Sam Croes spanning the 1980’s to now.  DH6-05 is 25mm to top of the head as is DH13-01.

EH09 Flower of Evil III is new and totally free automatically in all shipped orders until 10th March 2025.  Above you can see it being tackled by Skeleton Warriors unarmoured and armoured with added weapons and shields from our Undead Legions Range.  Codes VNT57,58, 59 and VNT51.  You can purchase more Flowers if you want but every packaged shipped gets one free all the same.

500th Anniversary of the Battle of Pavia in 1525!  Amazing event half a millennium later which we have marked with a blanket 20% off every order at checkout (no code needed and shown on screen).  This ends shortly on 3rd March 2025.  While it honours soldiers of the time and in turn our 16th Century Furioso Renaissance Range the discount covers all ranges and everything we make.

Thanks for your time.
