Spot on! I resell lots that I purchase. I have a very basic knowledge so there are thankfully tons that I can identify and have no issues with but I’ll get the occasional lot that I’m not sure on. Most people here seem happy enough to help so unless it’s causing an issue I’ll keep going?

Second picture are Stormcast Eternals, couldn't tell you what sort though.

Third picture, the big snakey thing (with wings) is Morathi, as is the the smaller figure pointing a staff forward. You've got what appear to be some griff hounds and a statue of Khaine on the bottom right. On the left is terrain. Mausoleum walls. Can't remember where the big gold column comes from.


Thanks so much!!

Haha glad to hear it can be at least a tiny bit entertaining for someone!

Yeah I have no issues with this trivia game, if it helps Cmitchell make some cash and helps some collector find what they're looking for, so be it.

Besides who doesn't enjoy the moment of recognizing an old model just by the shape of its sword?

Glad to hear it, hopefully there’ll be a few more nostalgic moments to come!

Are there any rules around adding links to products you’re selling or anything? If not I could add my eBay store link as a signature perhaps?

Looks like the old XV15 stealth suit could have been the base for the conversion.

I'd bet my next paycheck that it's a Wargames Exclusive figure. As it sure ain't a GW model.


Ah. Looks like it's this one, modified slightly.

Agree - and those aren't the WE Drones, they look like GW Missile Drones (from the Broadside) with an extra bit stuck on the bottom but those should be plastic...

Epic ork Dragstas. Maybe Lifta-Droppers can't be sure.

Look a bit rough as well, might be recasts.

Hey folks,

Hope everyone’s safe out there. Got a little lot of metal guys here that I can’t identify, any help with any of them would be great.

Thanks!

Guy on the left looks like a GW mummy, back from before they split Undead into tomb kings/vampire counts. So mid/late 90’s?

3rd guy in is an armored skeleton. Also late 90’s ish

I want to say the claw handed mini is a very old slannesh demon, before my time, so early/pre 90’s.

Amazing thank you! The only ones I’m not sure on are the 5th and then Minotaur guy

What does it say on the 5th guys partial tab? It looks like there are letters there, but I can't make them out from the picture. Even an incomplete name could help jog someone's memory.
