Looks like one of the old 4th/5th ed Wraiths from the Undead range.

Anything on these guys?

Metal flamers of Tzeentch

Thanks!

For someone running a shop that sells old gw figures you seem to know absolutely nothing about them !

Cool looking vintage!

I don't just sell 'old' GW figures, I sell anything Warhammer or GW related and have done for years now. I don't play the game and never have so all of my knowledge of it is based entirely of what I have sold and purchased in the past. I sell over 200 lots a month so naturally there are occasionally going to be some stock that I haven't sold before and therefore I need a bit of help with so saying that I 'know absolutely nothing about them' is just plain ignorance. I don't need to have a vast knowledge of every figure produced to be able to efficiently run a store, you can see that from the fact that I have over 2000 satisfied customers. You've taken a swipe a couple of times now and I don't really understand why, maybe my inferior knowledge in comparison to your greatness annoys you, either way if you don't want to help don't comment on the thread, it really is that simple, everyone else has been really helpful so far.

Got a couple here that I don't recognize, any help would be great.

Found that the first one is a Lord of Slaanesh, just not sure about the second.

I'm assuming that the second one is a Chaos Sorcerer, can anyone confirm or deny that?

Yep. Chaos Sorcerer. Early 2000-ish IIRC.

Hey everyone,

Anyone know anything about these guys?

The first model, how large is it? If it is larger that the typical 40k model, like by an order of magnitude, then I'd say it's an Inquisitor from the Inquisitor range of 54mm models. I think the second pic is a group of high elf dragon knights, the 3rd is a fantasy terrain piece, and the last is a space ork from the 1980s or 1990s.

Thanks, I had a hunch the first was an Inquisitor model, I'll have to look around to find which one in particular it is.

Anyone happen to know anything else about the 3rd and 4th pics? I can't seem to find anything about them.

The top one is Witch Hunter Tyrus from the old Inquisitor game.

The second looks like high elf dragon princes.

The third one looks like this.

The last one I think is a Goff rocker from many moons ago.

Thanks a bunch!!

You should find the exact details on SOL

Probably the best compilation of old GW catalogues and photos around.

The collecting Citadel Minis Wiki is also good.

http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

To give a bit more detail about the Space Marines, they were in the first releases of the Mk VII Armor (if I am remembering beaky armor as being Mk VI correctly), which puts them around the mid-90's.

A couple of the figures (the beaky marines) are continuations of older first releases of Space Marines.

And . . .

OMG! Those poor old figures.

I hope whoever's home they go to restores them to their proper glory.

And... I know NOTHING (really) about Warhammer or 40K past 1990.

I know that the Mk VII Marines replaced the beaky marines.

I know that Chaos got all the love in the 90's.

I know that the "Tau" came out in the late-90's when GW wanted to cash in on Evangelion and other Anime made a huge hit in the late-90's in the USA (beginning our general population's craze for anime),

I know that the Horus Heresy became a thing they actually did (Bryan Ansell had once told me it was supposed to be a past Golden Age of High Technology that would be forever referred to, but never approached - I wonder what changed?).

But I recognize next to nothing unless I actually once owned it.

Any ideas on these guys??

The vehicle in the top two pics is a conversion using bits from the ork figther bomma, a storm raven engine and I think bits from a battle wagon or trukk. The small figures look like grots.

The last photo also looks like a bunch of conversions from a fighter bomma and maybe tau piranha kit. I think they're supposed to be deff koptas.

yeah conversions, scratch builds.

Nice ones too.

I'm sure this is an easy one, I've definitely seen it before, just can't find it!!

That's not a GW figure. I think it's a figure from Hitech Miniatures.

Edit: Yep, its an Arch-Father Samael: http://hitechminiatures.com/fallen-angels/48-28mm-archfather-samael.html

Yup.

What he said

I hope you strip them
