Yes ladies and gentleman. It's the time you all love to hate, where someone asks for identification on a miniature.

Anyway, I recently got a whole load of miniatures back which I had totally forgotten about. Some from the late 80's, others the early 90's. Most are metal, though some are plastic, such as groups of Empire Halberds and Elven Spearmen. I've been going through their terrible paint jobs and using Fairy Power Spray to strip them. (About 12 hours is perfect for getting a near-completely clean miniature)

So, one of them is the miniature you'll see below. I have a feeling it's late 80's (a time when Breasts and Nipples were rampant it seems ), something to do with Chaos and possibly, though may not be, a Games Workshop miniature. I took it off its base and cleaned the glue from its tabs hoping to find the GW stamp and a date, unfortunately, however, they're blank. It's a fully metal miniature and comes in three bits, two legs and the body.

So.. guess away! Cheers!

Cheers guys, most obliged.

Odd how it has no markings on the tab for a GW model, not that it really matters though.

Many of the older models I buy are missing the writing on the tabs. My guess is that it had to be filed away to fit the base.

"If a man dedicates his life to good deeds and the welfare of others, he will die unthanked and unremembered. If he exercises his genius bringing misery and death to billions, his name will echo down through the millennia for a hundred lifetimes. Infamy is always more preferable to ignominy." -Fabius Bile
