Wow, that is sad :(

Did he jiggle the figure around while making the mold? Or just try and eyeball it? Her sword arm isn't even in the right position, let alone all the other things wrong with it. Thanks for the heads up about that guy.

Postby Maike05 » June 28th, 2013, 11:18 am

Hello guys, i came across a cool bunch of minis with similar design to heroquest. I was wondering if anyone also seen them and if you guys have more infos from where they come from ? I assume they are citadel, but that's all i know.

After some research I come to the conlusion that you can trust the facts this ebay seller gives for the Orcs.

I can definitely confirm that the second one is a Citadel/Marauder model, MM20/5a. Mid 1980s I gather.
The first one I saw painted together with a Chukka so I think he belongs there, too. Probably early 1990s.
The third I found in a picture in a regiment of Rugluds Armoured Orcs, Warhammer, probably also early/mid 1990s.
