Review: Scrobbits (SF Halflings)

Olleys Armies was set up in October of 2003 by Bob Olley.

Bob has been a freelance sculptor for 20 years and was a historical figurine painter before that. He first became interested in sculpting miniatures when he saw some of Citadel’s fantasy miniatures. Since then he’s worked for many companies, including Reaper Miniatures, Games Workshop, and Ral Partha.

The review sample sent was a set of Scrobbits cast in white metal. The pack (which shipped in a roll of bubble wrap) contained 5 Scrobbits with 5 slottabases included.

About

Scrobbits are Sci-Fi Halflings (or breaking it down, Sci-Fi Hobbits). Their motto is “To underestimate us will be your first and last mistake”

The Good

There was no cleaning to be done with these miniatures and no mold slippage.

Although there have been more than a few attempts out there to recreate the fun of Games Workshop’s defunct Squat line, Olleys Armies has mastered the art. While these Scrobbits are more akin to GW’s Ratlings, these are a far more superior sculpt.

The Bad

None.

The Ugly

None.

Scale: 28mm scale
