Alright,
Obviously I know this is a Reclaimer Server from Wreck Age Minis, but I meant something a bit more particular.
Does anyone know what this model is made out of? Resin? Plastic? White metal? Pewter?
Any and all help would be appreciated, because I could find absolutely nothing on it over the last half an hour.

Thanks!,

Pictures of it would help a lot with us identifying it.

The actual page doesn't specify material, but the boxed set that contains the server does specify as white metal

OK. Now that I've seen it.

It says metal. Now here is where it gets iffy.

"White metal" ISN'T a particular metal. It's a FAMILY of alloys with related properties. Pewter is also one of the white metal alloy family members.
It includes alloys made with tin, lead, antimony, bismuth and a bunch of others.

Once upon a time, a common alloy blend was Tin/lead/antimony. This was switched to a lead-free alloy (Ral Partha, GW and several others switched to this) that was a lot harder and more brittle.

If it doesn't say "lead free" or the packaging includes the warning "This is NOT a toy" (it may be an older alloy formulation, or a newer casting with a different alloy in the same family) it may be a lead containing alloy.

And in the UK at least, "White Metal" is the term auction houses use to describe something that's made of silver but hasn't been assayed in the UK.

For the avoidance of doubt, these figures won't be made of silver.

Well darn,
I was really hoping to pick up some pure-silver models. Will they have them in gold? How about platinum?
