Normally I can guess what a model is, but these have me stumped! I'm assuming that they're Wraithlords for epic.
Can anyone cast any light?

Ghost or Spirit Warriors from RT days. Wraith constructs similar to Wraithlords and Wraithguards.
I don;t recall which one they are specifically as that was a long time ago and I don;t want to dig out my Red book.

Make sure they are cleaned up and with some good photos, those could be worth pretty good money to collectors if you don't have any other plan for them.
I can't actually remember seeing any of those about even when they were on sale.

Mine came with the "Spirit warriors" which were the spirit stone controlled large dreadnought sized things that weren't dreadnoughts (dreads at the time for eldar had living pilots - like the warwalkers). "Spirit warriors" had little heads and tended to have an HPG in place of one arm/hand, Dreads had two hands and a heavy weapon or less frequently one and a heavy weapon - usually the lascannon - War cry).
There were two versions of the "ghost warriors" (little ones). One has a flamer built into the head and typically a powerfist AND a chainfist, the other has a shuriken catapult and two powerfists. They had an uber version of stealth back in 1st ed.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

They were great. Cloaking and stealth.
It used one of them once in my English coursework at school. We had to write a store called "Beware of the dog", which I turned into "Beware of the doG", and had a chaos god in it.

PM me an offer Pacific, and they're yours. Part exchange gratefully accepted. They were in two boxes gifted to the war games club I've just set up down here, which also included a complete sob army with forgeworld additions, a chaos militia army, tyranids, tau army including every metal ethereal going, including aun'va!
Almost £1000 worth. For nothing. I can't use these, can you?
Cheers

There were already Eldar Dreadnoughts, and they had the same heads as now.
The Spirit Warriors had these gas-mask type heads. Different in that they didn't have pilots.
But it's all good. Counts-as and rule-of-cool trump all.
