Collective mind,
What it says up there!
Any manufacturers doing Ragnar and his boys as seen on TV?
Thanks

Hi!
If you're going for the aesthetic of the TV show, the two I can think of are Hasslefree miniatures who do a TV Ragnar and Lagertha (as "Ulfred" and "Haleth")
https://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=ulfred~hfh117&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-humans
https://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=dynamic-haleth~hfh116&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-humans
And Stronghold Terrain's "Famous Vikings" range are basically sculpts of the TV characters, if that helps

I think that Newline Designs may have them in their ' Viking Character pack 1'
-
Yes the Newline figures look like they are based on the TV characters. Also, a pack of 4 Newline figures is about the same price as an individual figure from the other named manufacturers, even if not quite so finely detailed. They are also currently discounted until the end of January!
-
A pack of the Newline figures arrived today, I'll try and get a comparison photo as soon as I am able.

Brigade Games in the US has miniatures that look like the TV characters: https://brigadegames.3dcartstores.com/RS--Vikings_c_779.html?viewall=1
Bad Squiddo (the Dice Bag Lady) in addition to sme of the usual subjects, has an excellent array of female miniatures including Jarl Lathgertha:
shieldmaidens https://badsquiddogames.com/shop#!/~/search/keyword=shieldmaidens
vikings https://badsquiddogames.com/shop#!/~/search/keyword=Vikings

A fairly rubbish photo but from l to r, black tree, newline, crusader, newline, footsore, crusader, footsore.

Doh.

Hasslefree have 2 figures for Ragnar:

If you want them to look like the TV series find some bikie figures and give them swords, I am sure GW done some for hiveworld

They are so close, so my +1 to them
