they are truly 30mm, bigger than redoubt, but very nice, looks more like old toys figurines,
unfortunately all are the same size, so a hooker is high like a scrum half and a lock.
all looks aggressive and mostly resemble Tongan,New Zealand people.
I plan to paint them in the next days, when on holiday, I'll post some pics end of August. I have not yet choose teams to reproduce, probably England and Italy, or South Africa.
again thanks for pointing that intriguing new game.

I saw this thread and thought strange...........

You buggers, I've been looking at it and now I'm intrigued.

I also noticed a football (soccer) tournament game and eureka do the miniatures & stuff.

I am beginning to wonder what else is out there ?

Cheers for the links.

A&A Miniatures (Armorum & Aquila, NOT Axis & Allies) also do football players in case you're interested: http://www.aandaminiatures.co.uk/

Thank you. They had a free rules download so I've taken a copy of that.

I'll have a read and see what I decide to do. Agreat diversion from the norm.

Except that I spend most of my time preparing for it and not enough time gaming it. lol

The good thing is - finish 11 (well, 22..) minis, and you won't have to bother, ever again  ;)
