Golden on the Tabletop: HUNTR/X Join the Collection

Image
With my fondness for the film K‑Pop Demon Hunters , and the fact that I’d already picked up and painted 3D‑printed models of the Saja Boys , it really only felt right to complete the set by adding their rivals: HUNTR/X (pronounced “ Huntrix ”), the fictional K‑pop girl group at the heart of the movie. In the world of the film, HUNTR/X aren’t just chart‑topping idols. Beneath the lights, choreography, and fandom energy, they live double lives as demon hunters. Their music and performances aren’t merely entertainment - they are rituals, reinforcing a mystical barrier known as the Honmoon , which keeps demonic forces from breaking into the human world. The members of HUNTR/X The group consists of three distinct personalities, each bringing something vital to both the band and the fight: Rumi – Leader & Main Vocalist Calm, driven, and quietly burdened, Rumi leads the group both musically and in combat. As the emotional and strategic centre of HUNTR/X, she carries the weight of respons...

Bold as Brass, Quick on the Feet: Chivalrous Bum in Sherwood

So, last night we got our first game of Chivalrous Bum to the table - a wonderfully simple but very effective game of medieval melee. I actually discovered it indirectly thanks to Mike Demana of Lead Legionaries fame . Mike has been playing a fantasy game called Four Delvers , written by David Bezio , and while looking into that ruleset I followed the trail back to Chivalrous Bum , which is also by Bezio. Just as importantly, the rules are free to download, which makes giving it a try an easy decision. Sometimes a bit of curiosity, a good recommendation, and a zero price tag are all the excuse you need. Digging out some Robin Hood and Norman figures that have yet to see the tabletop - remnants of a long‑dormant Dragon Rampant project - I put together two opposing Retinues. One represents the Merrymen , led by Sir Robin of Locksley (Robin Hood) , while the other is commanded by Sir Guy of Gisborne. Each retinue is built using 10 Muster Points (MP) , drawn from three unit types: Peasa...

Soda Pop and Soul Theft: The Saja Boys Hit the Tabletop

Image
As I’m always on the lookout for unarmed civilian‑type figures, these caught my eye straight away. That practical need was only part of the reason for picking them up, though - the other was my fondness for the film K‑Pop Demon Hunters , which quickly became a favourite. The Saja Boys are a fictional five‑member K‑pop boy group and serve as the primary antagonists in Netflix’s animated film K‑Pop Demon Hunters (2025). On the surface, they are chart‑topping idols, adored by fans around the world. Beneath that polished exterior, however, they are demons in disguise, working to undermine the film’s heroes, the girl group HUNTR/X . The group consists of five members: Jinu, the leader Mystery Abby (also known as Abs) Romance Baby Formed under the command of the demon ruler Gwi‑Ma, the Saja Boys rely on psychological and cultural manipulation rather than brute force. Their plan is to lure fans away from HUNTR/X, siphon off the spiritual energy generated by mass adoration, and use large‑...
