Ogre Chieftain Borlag - Reaper Bones

Chieftain Borlag, Meal-Bringer of the Walking Fist tribe

I love the idea behind the Reaper Bones line - the lovely sculpts of Reaper in a super-cheap, afforable and durable material - brilliant! This is the first figure from the line that I've purchased, an Ogre Chieftain sculpted by Jason Wiebe. Lovely sculpt and he'll fit nicely alongside some greenskins in my Fantasy Skirmish setting.

This was my first exposure to the Bones material - it reminds me of the slightly rubbery plastic that you see a lot of action figure arms and components done in. Clean-up was easy - the details aren't quite as crisp as you would find on a metal miniature, but this is massively outweighed by the cost - the moldlines cleaned up nicely. I also got rid of the face that was on the club - I'd guess this was meant to be a magical weapon of some sort, but I decided that I'd rather have it a bit more standard.

I'd definitely buy more from this range - I was over the moon to see the Kickstarter to expand the range go so amazingly! I didn't end up kicking any money into it, just because of the sheer volume of stuff I didn't really need (and having a massive lead/plastic mountain already built up!) but I will purchase a bunch of different stuff - especially the fire and ice giants, the "elder god" (Cthulhu!) and various others. Highly recommended!
