Knight Models Invite New Superheroes To Their Miniature World
May 18, 2018 by brennon
Knight Models has invited a whole bunch of new and re-vamped superheroes and villains to their collection for both the Batman and DC Universe Miniatures Game.
We start with two folks who will be clashing many a time no doubt. The first of these is Superman above who comes with three alternative symbols for his chest depending on where you want to set your games within the comic universe. He will be going up against the deadly Doomsday!
All of the models that you're seeing here are 'new' in the sense that they have been added into the mix in the new coloured resin material that Knight Models is using for their range. So, they should be a LOT easier to work with.
Dark Scions & Undersea Royalty
As well as the big chaps above we also have an alternative Justice League for you. You might remember we talked about this lot a few weeks ago and I was talking about how Constantine is sometimes seen with this bunch (watch out Sam!).
The Justice League Dark is also joined by a seafaring lady, Mera. Wife of Aquaman, she is a powerful warrior in her own right and you actually saw her in the Justice League film during the fight scene in Atlantis.
It would be very cool to have the undersea duo going up against some dangerous foes together in some scenarios.
Miscreants!
We also have two more models for this month. The first of these is a rather updated version of Catwoman for all those games where you need to annoy Batman!
I really like the model they've done for Catwoman. It's not too over the top and the proportions, whilst of course focused towards a comic book style, don't seem overblown.
We also have the metal rocker known as Lobo. If you need an alien bounty hunter to cause some chaos then this fellow is your man.
That brings the range of releases for this month to a close from Knight Models, offering you a chance to dive into all aspects of their two miniatures games.
Which characters do you want to see them work on next?

These characters are so obscure. Great sculps though.
aside from Black Orchid and Deadman these are pretty well known characters…especially Superman and Catwoman…and Swamp thing has had 2 movies and will have a TV show late this year
Couldn’t agree more @tpryan01 you hit the nail on the head. Lobo and Doomsday are pretty well known too to be fair.
I dunno, if you have seen Batman Vs Superman then you should remember Doomsday was a pretty big part of it.
Meera and Lobo are maybe a bit niche but I will concede Black Orchid is obscure. I’ve been reading quite a lot of DC comics in the last couple of years and don’t know her!
I’m not sure how obvious it is but the Lobo release is a double pack with the bike.
Lobo looks good and would be fun for a Young Justice campaign.
Sorry, but Doomsday is far from obscure. In the comics, he killed Superman. One of the best written issues, loved it.
That was a huuuuuuuuge thing in comics at the time. It made it into news media they had killed off in the comics. Heck I remember it being in a newspaper at the time, and this was in Ireland
