Galactic Grenadiers 15 mm Ral Partha Tom Meier
« on: 28 October 2009, 02:28:06 PM »
I'm curently working through my stuff and piles to make room, and yesterday I found these gems sculpted by Tom Meier in 1979 for the Galactic Grenadiers range from Ral Partha:



Click on the pic to enlarge it, but even then you wouldn't see what must be the finest sculpted 15 mm SF miniatures I've ever seen. Absolutely crisp sculpting and very fine details. Top row are the Grenadiers with different weapons, bottom row shows 3 armed civilians followed by 6 alien warriors. A 5 Eurocent piece for scale.

As some of you were looking for good 15 mm SF stuff, I thought I should show you these very rare miniatures.

Oh yes, I will sell them. Just send a pm.

I know this isn't really on topic, but didn't they do a 25 mm range of those too?

Just saw this post (one of those 'similar to' posts you're looking at) - Tom Meier designed a 25mm range for Ral Partha entitled 'Galactic Grenadiers'. I posted pics on the Lost Minis WIKI;

Galactic Grenadiers

I have a load of those 15mm figs somewhere or another, one of of those old projects that never quite got off the ground  lol

I was looking for info on these mini's when I saw this post on this site.
This looks like a great site so I registered here.

I have these mini's (15mm) along with some others the same scale that also look great.
Looking for some rules to go along with them other than Galactic grienadiers which I have.
No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck.

I also have these which I can't Identify.
I think I got them at a convention.


Anybody know who made them?

Miniman tour stuff looks like Lazerburn, originally from Azgard. I have a few of those myself. I also have a bunch of the Ral Partha stuff in both scales all painted up. Really need to start playing with that stuff again.

If you guys are looking to rid your lead pile of them feel free to let me know. I might be interested in picking up some more.

Thanks HerbyF. Yes they are Laserburn/Traveller 15mm figures, I found some pics that ID's them.
Not looking to sell any at the moment. I have enough to play some first.
