No.99,
FS56 Citadel Village Idiot, Fantasy Specials, (1983 and possibly earlier*)

*thanks to Ecurtz

Painted as the jester for my Feudal project

Anymore info about this mini would be good to know. I’ve seen an example with a finger touching the mouth but I fear I cut that away during cleaning up, thinking it was flash

Nice one. That's a cool mini! 1 more to go!

No. 100 Games Workshop's (Citadel, actually) 1994 Grom the Paunch
A new cast of the original 1990s (c. 1994 I believe) GW model, using the original moulds, reissued for sale by GW.
Assuming this counts, as discussed at the start of the thread.

He actually comes with a chariot and Niblit, his standard bearer, but I wanted to use him as a standing character, so here he is.

PS - I noticed the wiry bit of extra metal on his right boot just now after I posted the photo!
I corrected it, but that's how he'll stay here, as submitted, warts and all.

Darn, I've been toiling in the garden all week, and went to the local 'not' Harry Potter Festival with the girls last couple of days, so now I have a half-finished old GW thug sitting on my pain(t) station

Lots of great old minis, again, in the last couple of pages!

He shows up in the '83 catalog (with finger in mouth) but they didn't list sculptors or anything at that point.

A fine job painting him and a nice sculpt for the period.

Thanks very much

He’s tiny. I kind of regret shaving the finger off but it’s done now

I'm just glad I was able to sneak one in!

Well done, everyone.

Apparently a twice popular theme. Fantasy, which I think is the most popular board LAF. And since most of us are old farts by now, vintage toys are in high regard.
