Hello my name is Paul and Tumbling Dice is my company. I first produced miniature figurines in the mid 1970s as a founder of Asgard Miniatures. Then moving onto design and manufacture gift and commemorative items (Mucky Duck), while also creating Tumbling Dice wargames ranges.

The designs reflect my preferences of scale and style. Aimed to make practical wargames figures and models, for gaming projects of any size from individual skirmishes to entire battles.

I would like to thank all my customers over the many years for their support and help. And future customers who I hope will find opportunities in my designs to expand their ideas and projects onto new horizons.

May your dice roll kindly.

Paul.

In all the ranges figurines or models are designed to be used as games pieces. This dictates the model must have a certain amount of robustness along with the need for historical accuracy. I cast small items in Tin (Pewter) for strength and larger items in high quality Lead/Tin alloys. The choice of scale is important as the size of models can restrict the type of game played. The text below explains the ranges produced.

1:2400 Scale Naval

Ships from Ancient times up to the end of the age of sail were rarely over 200 ft long (25 mm in 1:2400 Scale). It is only in the Victorian period warships of 400 ft became the norm. Gunnery ranges in the age of sail. Were less than one mile (660 mm to scale) and up to the 1880s were less than three miles. 1:2400 gives the gamer the space to play most any historical battle on a 8 ft x 6 ft table. Flags for most nations are available along with discounted starter sets for each period.

1:4800 Scale Napoleonic

This range of Napoleonic ships designed to produce single piece castings to replace counters in board games mainly played on hex mats. Even the largest model will fit in a 30 mm hex tray. They would also work for gamers restricted in space or by using magnets as a travel game. A Trafalgar Battle Pack is available with enough ships for both sides.

1:600 Scale Vapour Trails

Aircraft, naval, and land items. This extensive range covers aircraft from the first aces up to and into the near future. Each mark and variant of an aircraft is recognisable yet games of 100 or more are practical in terms of cost and space required. 1:600 (3 mm to 6 ft) is also a scale that works well with naval coastal games and land scenarios. A series of discount starter sets and simple pick up and play rules listed. Aircraft sold individually in packs of 1 to 6 items according to size.

1:72 Scale (25mm) Historical Ranges

Designed to be compatible with plastic figurines and scenery. The ranges offer metal models at a practical cost for gamers to reproduce armies. While still providing detailed figurines & models for skirmish games. Items of riders or foot, sold in packs of 8 with at least 4 or up to 8 different designs per pack. Each pack may have shields or weapon options included and some have choices for equipment or head variants. Horses sold in packs of 4 for the same price again there are 4 or more poses available. Army packs at discount listed these contain the equivalent of 120 foot figures at the cost of only 100. Many do contain the larger command packs and therefore total more than the 120 equivalent minimum. Foot and riders cast in Pewter, horses in Lead/tin alloy.

1:76 Scale (20mm)

These ranges designed to used with 1:76 scale plastic or metal vehicles. Smaller than 1:72 scale they can make up large units with artillery. Tanks and transport, aircraft and railway gauge scenery readily available cheaply in plastic.

1:48 Scale (37mm)

This range of WW 2 figures is aimed clearly at platoon level skirmish games. The range offers complete figures or multipart options for modellers wishing to populate armoured vehicles or transport vehicles. Equipment back packs, loose weapons and other kit can be used to individualise characters. Items are cast in Pewter or Lead alloy according to size. Packs are based around 4 figures to a pack.
