    Good luck finding those Mike, you may have to remortgage your house.

    Might be cheaper to hire a sculptor and commission your own.

    Great names though,  the happy days when GW had a sense of humour.

    They are amazing, many are on eBay and whilst I could stretch to some of those prices, I would rather see what people off of eBay would sell them for.

    I only need 3 of them so that is a bonus.

    Technically you don’t need any of them, let’s be honest here, Mike. 😉

    How much are they going for these days, do I dare to ask?

    Yikes. Each?! That’s a bit much. And now you know why I game at 3mm and 6mm scale.

    Yeah, I find 10mm much less scary price wise!

    Ouch – any one of them would get you a set (or two) of Wargames Foundry crossbow men 🙂

    They often say the difference between a man and a boy is the price of the toy but I did not know these had reached this height. Sorry I have none this old in the odds and ends I keep finding…

    Turning lead into gold?

    Having perused old minis on ebay from time to time I do wonder if the price asked is ever the price gotten. I’m certainly skeptical I would get that sort of money for my bits and bobs.

    How long can it be before you can scan that image and then 3D print it to whatever size you desire?

    Fossilizing nicely.

    That is eye wateringly expensive for a single figure! For the top end of the prices quoted I can buy a complete 10mm Army for pretty much any period I could wish for.

    Looking on eBay at sold items only, there are those that sell at over £100.00, some lovely classics.

      Funny you should ask as I just saw a video where they talk about a website where you can upload a series of pics of an object (typically as many angles as possible) and they convert it into an 3d model that can be used in many different programs.  May not be quite up to doing small miniatures, but may be something to look into.
