Estelle La Veneaux $36

Some believe that Estelle la Veneaux is an ancient embodiment of the Amazonian goddess Rigg, sent unto the game of Blood Bowl to destroy those who would threaten the delicate balance of nature. Others say that she’s just a half-crazed Amazon hermit who prefers pet frogs to civilised company. Whatever the truth, the Baroness of the Bayou is a terror on the pitch.

Estelle is possessed of strange powers that she unleashes on the enemies of nature – as well as rival teams, littering fans, and noisy commentators. Her special rule, Baleful Hex, allows her to curse an opposing player into a stupor, robbing them of their Tackle Zone and next activation. Combined with her Disturbing Presence and Guard, this Star Player is a frighteningly disruptive force on the attack or defence.

This finely-detailed resin miniature is supplied as 5 components and comes with a Blood Bowl 32mm Round Base. All the rules you need to use Estelle la Veneaux are included in the pack, and can also be found in Blood Bowl Spike! Journal Issue 15.

Boa Kon’ssstriktr $36

A mysterious Snakeman of origins unknown, Boa Kon’ssstriktr slithered from the jungles of Lustria and onto the Blood Bowl pitch. With an eye for tactics honed by watching countless games from the trees, this cunning player has risen to prominence through unorthodox – some would say downright sneaky – manoeuvres that cost his rivals the ball, the game, and their nerve.

The Scheming Serpent possesses a wealth of skills for tripping up the opposition – both figuratively and literally, thanks to his Prehensile Tail – but when even his Hypnotic Gaze isn’t enough to turn the tide, this master manipulator can use his once-per-game special rule, Look Into My Eyes. All your opponent can do is watch, as a mesmerised player cheerfully hands over the ball right into Boa’s waiting, friendly grasp.

This finely-detailed resin miniature is supplied as 8 components and comes with a Blood Bowl 32mm Round Base. All the rules you need to use Boa Kon’ssstriktr are included in the pack, and can also be found in Blood Bowl Spike! Journal Issue 15.

Glotl Stop $49

Glotl Stop is known by many names across the world. The Primordial Nightmare, the Killer Krox, the Scaled Slasher. Whatever you call him, he’s a fan favourite among those who prefer a more simplistic – that is to say, gloriously violent – approach to the game of Blood Bowl. Just don’t ask what happened to his first team…

His bloodthirsty instincts honed to a razor-toothed edge, Glotl is even stronger and more ferocious than his Kroxigor kin and, an absolute menace on the pitch. Though occasionally gripped by a savagery that causes him to chomp down on team-mates, it’s that same unpredictability that makes him such a danger to the opposition.

This finely-detailed resin miniature is supplied as 9 components and comes with a Blood Bowl 40mm Round Base. All the rules you need to use Glotl Stop are included in the pack, and can also be found in Blood Bowl Spike! Journal Issue 15.

World Eaters Cataphractii Shoulder Pads $23

The World Eaters are a Legion of butchers and berserkers, driven by bottomless rage to drown whole worlds in blood. The XII Legion meet the enemy with unmatched tenacity and aggression, ignoring casualties and risks to overwhelm even the strongest defences. The foremost sons of Angron go to war clad in mighty Terminator armour – the fanged maw of the Legion emblazoned across their spiked pauldrons, so their enemy knows exactly who will destroy them.
.
This upgrade kit can be used to customise models clad in Cataphractii Terminator armour with pauldrons bearing the gaping maw icon of the World Eaters, split in halves across both pauldrons. The kit includes 10 shoulder pads with prominent spiked rims and sculpted icons that make them simple to paint in the signature colours of the Legion. Spread these components around your army and combine them with transfers to capture that signature XII Legion aesthetic, or outfit entire squads for an elite, unified look.

This upgrade kit is comprised of 10 resin components and is designed to be assembled with Cataphractii Terminators, which are sold separately. These components require assembly and are supplied unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

This item is available via Made to Order until 8am BST on Monday the 17th of October 2022. As a Made to Order product, this kit will be dispatched within 180 days of your order.

World Eaters MKII Torsos $23

The World Eaters care little for finely-detailed or precisely-maintained equipment, so long as they can close ranks and commence to slaughter. As such, the XII Legion’s armour is often pieced together from various marks, as its serfs and artificers try desperately to keep battle-scarred suits in working order.

This upgrade kit can be used to customise Legionaries wearing MKIII, MKIV, and MKV armour with torsos representing MKII ‘Crusade Armour’ featuring the imagery of the World Eaters. The kit includes five torsos, with four unique designs – featuring heavy grills with gladiatorial chains and spikes. Spread these components around your army to add some XII Legion flavour, or outfit entire squads for a more cohesive look.

Blood Angels MKIV Torsos $23

The Blood Angels march to war clad in finery matched only by the Emperor’s Children. The IX Legion takes great pride in its panoply of war, for the sons of Sanguinius value art and artifice – beauteous refinements that distract from their cursed bloodlust – and these skills are made evident on their warplate.

This upgrade kit can be used to customise Legionaries wearing MKIII, MKIV, and MKV armour with torsos representing MKIV ‘Maximus Armour’ featuring beautiful decorative elements.
