One of these was done a short while back, so I thought I'd post up another for your enjoyment! The rules are simple. Try and figure out what the models are, and where they're from, without consulting any kind of guide or sole legends or looking at other people's answers.

1. can't see the top of it's head but Eldar raider I think.
2. Imperial Guard medic.
3. Necromunda bounty hunter?
4. The Hop Splat gun, sold with the first metal wartrakk.
5. Eldar raider.
6. Imperial Guard sniper.
7. Mounted Chaos Renegade.
8. Imperial Assassin.
9. Cataphract imperial robot.
10. Erm... Talisman witch hunter or something?
11. Satyr.

I got about the same...But

3. Is a Techo gang Leader for Confrontation (First Necromunda)
10. I have no idea... maybe not GW?
11. agree with Satyr but I also think it was part of the Familiar Series

1. Eldar raider and standard bearer - there is a nub on the back for attaching the banner pole.
2. Imperial ARMY medic. ( Have this one and use him as a guard medic for my current IG army.)
3. Imperial Inquisitor
4. Hop-splat field gun (ork). Generally sold with the old wartrakk to tow it. (have this one in the bits box - with the wartrakk.)
5. Eldar raider with meltagun. ( Have this one.)
6. Don't know. Imperial army something or other. Can't see the gun well enough.
7. Chaos Renegade on horseback (RT).
8. Imperial Assassin. ( Have this one - use her as a callidus assassin.)
9. Cataphract class imperial robot with bolter, flamer and lascannon. (still have two of these in my bits box. One has a heavy bolter in place of the lascannon).
10&11. two random fantasy models (didn't play any faction except wood elves and only ever played against DE or Brets). Don't know.

Hex base makes me think it was a satyr from talisman.

I'll attach a list of what's what later so you can check how correct you were!

I've got one of number 8 and it's not like any imperial assassin I've seen, certainly not the old RT one. It's a human female dressed rather like a catachan IG but with a sword. I thought she was Warzone or something like that. But I would be interested to know what it is.

#8 came in the same blister as #3 [edit; Not #3, another inquisitor model. See below] for me (and two other models). The bandanna around the head, the bell-bottom-y trousers and the lightsabre-like power sword. She's a citadel mini alright.


Warzone minis have a very different style - and had more detail - but are a later period (more late RT and early 2nd ed) - the females in it tended towards the etoile mortant assassin cadres.

I would never have guessed it was citadel for all sorts of reasons. Firstly it's quite animated, she's bending over and quite 3D looking, many RT figures were very flat or were made chunky to compensate for problems in making the figure appear hunched. many hunched Marines have their guns moulded into them to give this effect, it's all due to mould limitations of the time. Secondly, there are no details on the slotta tag, almost all GW figures have something especially the older RT figures which can be quite detailed and always have a date. Lastly, I thought mine was white metal and it has a similar style in the sculpt to a warzone or something not really like Citadel, it's certainly not a recast though.

But blow me down, I've just been looking through SoL for the other RT assassin and I've found it, 4th along the last but one row.

I love the stuff on that page, I'd like them all.

Yep, that's the one.

The four minis in the blister I got were in this blister:
072117/8

#10 is not a Talisman miniature, it is a GW fig though.. I think from the Fantasy Adventure line.. (I have him, but he is painted and based so I cannot read his tab).

The Satyr is def a Talisman mini though..

Well, if anyone ever wants to dispose of #8, let me know...................
