Hello and welcome to our 3rd kickstarter, where we hope with your support and backing to be able to fund the expenses involved in producing Armies of the Scrunt Empire. Since our last Kickstarter Bob has devoted a great many hours constructing and sculpting the miniatures to make these sets.We just love these gas masked scrunts and gas masked dachshunds, we would be thrilled to be able to get moulds made for them and to add them to the Olleys Armies Miniatures lines already on our website. That will only happen if we can get the funding we need from this Kickstarter project. So please take a look at the pictures below showing the sets Bob has made We hope that you like them and that you decide to back our project.

Thanks Bob & Jackie

SET ONE: Sea Battalion Scrunts-
Pledge Value £52 For The Complete Set of 15 Scrunts or £18 for 5 Scrunts (random mix)




Stretch Goal (£4050)
Set TWO: The Argonauts
Pledge Value £52 complete set of 15 Scrunts or £18 for 5 Scrunts (random mix)




I've been in on the first two Olleys Armies KS and can say they've been a pleasure, and delivered neat minis on time so if you fancy some of these back with confidence

Are they supposed to be chibi, or just GW-meets-Confrontation dwarfs?

Not that I'm complaining. I think they look awesome.

no - he's been sculpting like that for years.
did the original Ogryn amongst many other GW models.

He did a lot of the original Squats. That's pretty much the same scale and aesthetic he's going for I assume.

Here's a quick scale shot from the previous scrunt KS projects

Update #1 ℹ

Made a banner for TMP and Tabletop Gaming News


We've made a nice shiney new banner for advertising on TMP and Tabletop Gaming news, hoping to hear back from them very soon to say they are up and running.



advertising banner

and as you can seebelow the banner can also be used on other (better) sites like Dakka

Good idea I should have thought of that before, I will find out the advertising rates, thanks

Now just funded so pledge with confidence,

and help the campaign power to stretch goal one

Awesome stuff! Love Bob Olley's Scrunts.

Think this is probably the highlight! Think its a nice continuation of 'Squats riding Ambulls' and the like.

There is some nice stuff here. Hope it does well! Some nice mechanical scrunts to go with your new mechanical dudes.

I have too many scrunts already...

I do recommend them though!

Update #4 Apr 7 2015

Stretchgoal Amounts Reduced!


Good News, we've just made those stretchgoals more achievable, the Argonauts stretchgoal has been reduced by £183 to £3,867, the Cenobites reduced by £498 to £5,102, The Prussian Colonials by a wopping £1,577 to £5291, I won't list the others but the final stretchgoal that will unlock everything has dropped by a massive £2,562 and is now £6,236.

We have been able to do this by reducing Bob's design fee from the first sets and removing it altogether from set Four onwards, this means it was not only the design fee we were able to deduct but also the largest proportion of the reduction came from removing the expenses for casting, postage allowance and Kickstarter fees that are generated to pay for those design fees.

So we are hoping we have done enough to make all of Bob's wonderful sculpts available through this Kickstarter. We've reached almost £7,000 for the previous Kickstarter so we have every hope we can make it this time. Best Regards Jackie

so if you were hanging back in hope of an unlock get your cash in there as there's a real chance we can get at least one of the exta sets available

The first stretch goal has been unlocked thanks to a backer outside the KS

so you can now also pick

Set TWO: The Argonauts

Pledge Value £52 complete set of 15 Scrunts or £18 for 5 Scrunts (random mix)

The set is made up of 15 miniatures, one piece castings except for the separate weapon arms.

Hello Everyone, I've finally found time to post an update, all the rewards that I can post have been sent.

So a big thank you to everyone once again for all your support throughout this Kickstarter Campaign. I'm just waiting for the invoice from Griffin Moulds and then I will post a breakdown of how all your backing money was used.

Many thanks Bob & Jackie

so if you know Gregg (or are Gregg) see about getting that address info to Bob & Jackie so you can get your goodies
