Evening all,

I recently picked up a small box of models from a yard sale, and within the depths I discovered a number of pewter models, the likes of which I am not familiar.

Can anyone help me out as to what sets/edition or roughly when these models are from?

Base slots read "Marine"....and the other is covered in old glue


Base slots read: "Techmarine", "Chaplain", and "Marine Vet SOT(sp?)"


Base slots all read "Space Marine", last one just reads "Marine"

1st pic - marine with special weapon (melta gun) & eldar guardian later released as an eldar pirate - around 1990-92
2nd pic - the last one looks like a vet sergeant - 1998-2002
3rd pic - Dark Angels vets & 2 bog-standard marines - 2004-2008

The dates are guesses & I might be a little out on the specifics of the models but I think they're about right.
Sometimes the models also have the copyright date on the tabs.

First Photo - "Bolter 1" (originally one of the Death Eagles Space Marines sculpted by Mark Copplestone 1989) - and "Shuriken Catapult"; the Eldar is a Standard Bearer and he should have a backpack with a standard pole.

Second Photo - "Techmarine 2" (with a powerfist from the Close Combat Weapons Sprue), "Chaplain 2" and "Veteran Sgt. Bionic Arm" who's missing his chainsword

Third Photo "Dark Angels Marine 2", "Dark Angels Marine 3", "Blood Angel Death Company Trooper 2" and "Space Marine MK7 Armour 7"

Awesome, thank you both for the responses
