Well, some buddies of mine and I were gaming a few weeks ago when we decided to up and try Warhammer Quest again (something I hadn't played for nigh on 20 years).
Luckily for me my friend had the old boards, doors and most of the miniatures. It helps that our gaming group has a veritable bevvy of fantasy miniatures, particularly old Warhammer miniatures. My friend has several full old 1990's Warhammer armies in fact. So, going through our email group we gathered a few volunteers and played a few games - and will likely play many more! It was exactly as I remembered it, only this time full of nicely painted miniatures (granted some are still underway!).
Anyway, I decided at once to play my old high school character, the Dwarf Trollslayer. I assembled my figure in private for the reveal on the first day of gaming. He's...not your normal trollslayer.

I was so dreadfully tired of Scottish dwarves with gigantic red mohawks I went another direction entirely.

Here he is charging forward with the Barbarian...one of our two starting hero groups who met their fate yesterday (failed both games!)
And when I was about to go home, I was griping about not having much in the way of fantasy miniatures to paint...lo and behold my buddy tossed me an unopened blister from 1995 (21 years!). A pit fighter for Warhammer Quest! I was pretty nervous about painting him because my buddies all paint way better than I do, but I hope I did him justice (leaving the base for my buddy to finish to match his stuff). I hate the figure but it was pretty fun to paint.

Again I strayed from the overly common red-n-black-80's-metal paint scheme he's always issued. Hoping to get a few more games in sometime soon!
PS: It was great to find a use for my miniatures finally! I was able to use my spiders, bugbears (stand-in beastmen), ghouls etc...finally earning their place on the table top!
