More Miniatures

I got a few more Justice Department miniatures, including Judge Cal with Judge Fish and a GW version of an SJS Judge, which is smaller than other miniatures. I like having miniatures of different proportions. It reflects the natural variation of human sizes. Wargames Foundry make miniatures with varying statures, and genders.

Munchkin Expansion

Out soon, a 15 card Judge Dredd themed expansion for Munchkin Apocalypse. Here's the official blurb about Apocalypse..

In Munchkin Apocalypse, every possible natural (and unnatural) disaster has happened . . . or will happen during the game. You are a rugged survivor in a world full of people – and things – that want to kill you and take your stuff. So do it to them first!

City of Dredd

For those interested in Mega City or planning on running a game in that setting, there's a great resource that documents locations mentioned in the Dredd comic, with a wealth of information.
It's available from www.lulu.com for a small fee. Well worth it.
Another superb resource, and a good read, is the Worlds of Dredd. Again, this is available from Lulu, and describes locations outside of Mega-City, both on Earth and beyond!

Miniatures

Several companies make and have made miniatures for Judge Dredd. Currently, Mongoose Publishing make the best selection in collaboration with Warlord Games. (Mongoose Riot Judge below)
Another company that makes Judge Dredd miniatures is Wargames Foundry. These are slightly bigger, although can give a realistic variation in height and weight between characters when used alongside other companies' miniatures. (Wargames Foundry Texas City Judge below)
Games Workshop used to produce Judge Dredd miniatures in the good old days. Like other metal miniatures from those days, they're noticeably smaller, and I would use them in games as Rookie judges, cadets or Jimps (judge impersonators). No pics of those yet. They're in my painting queue.

Pat Wagon

I received a Pat Wagon, made of solid resin with metal extras, from mongoose. This was from the Judge Dredd Miniatures Game kickstarter 2012. I totally wasn't expecting any vehicles. Every so often I receive random JDMG miniatures in the mail. It's cool!! That's the best kickstarter I've ever done.
I'll probably paint it black with red highlights, like the one in the rulebook. Not sure how to do the Justice department logos. I can't paint them and I have no transfers (decals).
