I always liked this guy and I think Timothy Truman did a great job on this drawing.
There have been some interesting interpretations of Warduke over the years.
And of course the toys based on the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon:
It always seemed to me that this classic painting by Frazetta was in some way an inspiration for Warduke.
Here is cool post on

Of course, there is also cartoon Warduke!

Everybody loves Warduke!
Interesting how many figures make him right handed, when his armor and early illustrations show him as a leftie.
ReplyDeleteI love his stats! STR of 16 and still a badass. No Unearthed Arcana alternate rolling systems for him!
oh, good point! It makes you realize how much stat inflation there has been over the years.

ReplyDeleteThe picture you used is not the classic toy.
ReplyDeleteIt's not? I never got the action figure. I have the small plastic miniature (you can see in the header of this blog).
