Coming Soon from Killer B Games - our new Adventures in Oz Range. The first two packs: Dorothy & Friends and The Wicked Witch of The West are available to buy now, the rest will follow shortly. The intention is to bring out the Adventures in Oz game in the new year but these figures will have stats to use them in Blitzkringle. After all, what is Christmas without The Wizard of Oz?

And shown here are the Winkies, their look is taken from the original book illustrations with a few added flourishes such as helmets etc.

All of those figures look quite excellent! Hard time picking a favorite among them.

The characters look great and the Hammerheads are perfect (remember them being very creepy).
The Winkies not so much, I am not keen on the 'flourishes',  the gunners are OK and fit the look well enough but the Halberdiers/Spearmen don't really say "Oz", at the least they need the iconic goatees and 'taches.

The intention is to get them cast clean shaven then add various facial hair in order to get a number of variants.

For a skirmish force some pose/figure variation is good. Any chance of heads without the helmet?
I am looking forward to receiving the character set I ordered.

Dorothy and friends as well as the winged monkeys are so characterful. I wouldn’t have imagined playing an Oz game, but now I am wondering about Oz Pulp Alley...I don’t know enough about the books though.

Very nice looking sets. I do love the characters which I'm quite certain I will order.
Best wishes,
Helen

Following on from my last post I've ordered Dorothy and friends plus the Wicked Witch. Your renditions of the Hammerheads are great as are the winged monkeys. I look forward to their release. I hope in time we may see the Wizard of Oz, Ozma and Jack Pumpkinhead.

Thank you again for releasing these lovely miniatures.

Hi Helen, the plan is for an extensive range covering all the main characters as well as a set of rules. There will be factions such as the Grand Army of Oz, Scoodlers, Phantasms,  Munchkins etc. I spent Lockdown reading all of the Baum books before moving onto the Ruth Thompson books. My hope is that not just gamers but Oz collectors will be interested. Coming imminently from the sculptors workbench are Munchkins and the Sawhorse ( the Sawhorse was done early as I already had a similar figure in the Blitzkringle range to convert.)

Thanks for outlining the plan. I'm nearing the end of Ruth Plumly Thompson's books plus I've the first six audio books which are just excellent. I listen to them as I paint miniatures.

I look forward to the future, thank you.
