Equipment: Savage Crucible Frazetta’s Warrior with Ball & Chain From Harvinger Studios

Posted on 2025/07/22 by James

According to Harvinger Studios, wave one of the Savage Crucible figures was a resounding success. This is not surprising once you see the quality and craftsmanship that went into each design and sculpt. We were fortunate to be able to review two figures from wave one, Veteris Repax and the Shield of D’Zaera. I was highly impressed with both of these lizard warriors and had been waiting to see what was new. The wait is over.

The first figure in Wave 2 of Savage Crucible starts with a bang. Made in partnership with the Frazetta Art Museum this first figure is, Frazetta’s Warrior with Ball & Chain. This figure looks amazing and will be the best-looking barbarian in your collection (sorry Conan). This sculpt is beautiful and really does justice to the original piece of art.
