Certainly do!

Especially the chariot and wolf boys  :-*

Got some of the 90s wolf boys - nice gobbos but the placcy wolves are awful... Shame the 080s ones seem to command a good price on ebay - too good to build uop a nice big pack that is...

The old box set of 2 goblin wolf chariots always seemed like great value back in the day - why didn't I save my pocket money and buy one!!!  :'(

Yes if I could go back in time for just a second and tell my teenage self to have more focus with collecting.. never mind the electric guitar you'll always stink at it, forget the shadow run and hero modules you'll never play them, why bother going boozing with your mates in, 20 years time you won't be talking to them what you really want is some of these nice marauder villagers.

I have some of the all lead marauder wolf boys but they need painting up, both the citadel and marauder groups were collected very slowly though one or two here and there at reasonable prices.

Currently on the painting table are a bunch of citadel boar boys but they've been half finished for about 6 months now!

Three lots of citadel boar boys! Myself I really enjoy painting just don't get the time. By the time I've put my little boy to bed and the wife is back from London and we've spent the quality time together there just isn't time. Still she is at a function tonight so I'll crack on with the boar boys, really looking forward to it, man I'm a geek.

Most of my collection isn't painted either, that's one thing about posting on a forum like this, gives you inspiration and motivation.

I noticed today that even the mid 90s plastic wolf lead gobbo riders are going for sillish money now!

Crazy! At least I have 5 of them  :D

Know any good 80s citadel wolf look-a-likes as they really need remounting - plastic wolves aren't too great...
