TOR17 The Guillotine re-mastered and released
We are continuing our project to bring classic ranges back to the world and this time we present the last of the commonly available 1980's Torture Chamber 28mm codes; the Guillotine. As with all the other codes in this range it contains adult themes and single pieces from packs can be had on the page for that code. Go HERE.
TOR17 The Guillotine. This pack contains all the 28mm metal pieces needed to assemble a guillotine as well as a resin platform for the machine to stand upon (eight pieces in total) and two other pieces those being the Executioner and the Victim. There is also a severed head in a bowl which can be placed as pleased. When build the machine of death is 90mm tall and stands 30mm wide.
Here are views of the models as you can see it is a rather special piece. Great for fantasy or historical settings in wargaming or diorama (The Terror anyone?). The machine itself can fit any kneeling victim or it can be left without one; make your choice while assembling. The Executioner is standing next to a ground borne lever which will drop the blade. The victim is a bound and kneeling nude woman. A bowl contains a severed head. You can have the machine on its own, or the executioner, the bowl or the victim select your option on page HERE.
We have now completed all of the released codes from this range. There are a few more releases to come later this year which will be codes never before seen and have been dormant in molds for nearly forty years!
Read on our BLOG in full. Free Tree Demon automatically included in every order this month. Great for many scales and settings.

Traders and Entertainers return to the Torture Chamber range
Now re-mastered and back in the world more classic poses in the 28mm Torture Chamber range. We have just about brought back every pose and set which was around in the 1980's and later this year we will unveil several codes which were made for this setting but were never released (yes never seen before!). Today's news gives you characters which go along with the ladies in the Harem set and would go well with The Rack or The Whipping Beam for instance.
Each of these miniatures can be had in the pack or on its own as well. Go HERE.
TOR15pt3 Harem and Slave Market Pt3 Trader and Entertainers
This classic pack is the third of several to bring you the Slave Market and Harem characters in the Torture Chamber collection. It contains five 28mm scale miniatures as follows. Dancing Girl (1), the Slave Master (2), Harem Eunuch Guard (3), Girl with Fan (4) and Sitting Musician (5). These miniatures are for use in dioramas or dungeon crawl type games and settings. Painted examples shown on 25mm square bases.
The Inquisitor on the Throne. There is a lot in this range for both fantastical and historical wargaming. All of the sets can be had as a pack or pieces from them if you wish to craft your own visions of the setting. Go HERE.
These are all of our 28mm fantasy releases for this month but you can check out the re-mastered and expanded Orc Rock Band just now before we talk about it in a couple of weeks time.

Kalene the Barbarian Priestess 28mm released and free too!
"The tribe chose her for her strength. Kalene had killed the fearsome one eared snow panther which had carried off old and young alike. Now she leads the warriors into battle with a stone blade and the skull of Dargara the maimed wrapped with fur from the panther. Her magics are growing and the blood of foes spilled feeds that growth!"
FL24-03 Kalene Barbarian Priestess
This female miniature is great in any 28mm scale game system or RPG system as a character. Inspired by the classic 1980's fantasy films and the Torture Chamber range restored on our website. Half nude barbarian with stone dagger and skull standard. Stands 28mm tall. This miniature is not supplied with a base (shown on a 25mm square cartouche base) and is supplied unpainted. Other miniatures shown for scale only and not supplied below. Go HERE.
This is the third miniature in the growing FL24 code following on from the Midsummer Druidess and the Witch Carline. Useful character figures for fantasy or myth tabletop gaming for your collection. We may indeed add further unique poses in this code during future events! If you have ideas for a female miniature or any type please contact us; we would love to hear about it (plus if we make it, you will get some gifts!).
Kalene would be right at home among the classic 28mm Asgard Barbarians range. Twelve different miniatures for dungeon crawl, skirmishing and more. Plus two different value sets of all twelve. One with a saving and the other with a free miniature included.
There is a mass of new releases and news this month which will be coming at your every two days of so. Keep an eye out for it!
