I'm not sure if I'm in the correct bit of the forum for this so if I'm not please do let me know.
I recently got Grom druring the Warhammer legends promo and I noticed that he does not have any flag (he had one in the image on the store page). Is he not supposed to come with a flag or is he missing it?
I'm trying to figure out if I need to return it (and GW support is closed today and the store near me is closed for the next two).
Thanks in advance.

The old figure had a sticker flag; doubt the new re-release have them. Most people made their own out of cut outs and painted or print outs from the printer.

Interesting. They show a flag in the pic, that's what confuses me.
Here's a pic.

yep, that image shows the old stickers a lot of models came with. It folded around the pole. You'll have to make your own now.

I never forget the Dakka unit scale is binary: Units are either OP or Garbage. |

Uhr-mhurr-gherd. I didn't think they made that model any more! The banner bearer (Niblet?) was the first miniature I ever painted. No idea where it got to, I lost my O&G along the way, but I might just buy that for nostalgia's sake.

It was a limited run, can't get it now (unless you want to pay scalpers quite a bit more than was paid).

In those days you had to make your own banners from paper and things. Some had stickers but this one basically make your own.

Thanks for the information everyone! I ended up returning him along with the other warhammer legends figures I bought.

*Shriek!* May I ask to where you returned it, knowing that one would be in stock?
