1976 vintage skeletons from Minifigs' 'Valley of the four winds' range. The paint hasn't lasted on the spears, they're showing their age, but here they are, a unit of 5.

Minifigs 25mm 'Mythical Earth' miniatures
These really are ancient. Some of the first miniatures I ever bought. It was probably about 1976.
They're nothing both in stature and detail compared to today's work, but they were a start. I did have some more of these - I'm still in the process of sorting, so I'll post again if any come to light.
Thanks to DnDLead for help in recognition.
ME55 'Dwarf King and standard' flank a single ME3 from 'Strip of 2 dwarves'. These were sold in strips of multiple figures. I broke a few knife blades on them as I recall. They're about 15mm tall. |
Two shots of one of the ME12 'Two small trolls'. |
At some point he got repainted in the same livery as the above dwarves to make up numbers in a unit for Chainmail |
ME4 'Wizard' The staff was both enormous and fragile. |
To be honest lots of stuff broke off. |
Which is why this ME1 'Man Orc with sword' hasn't got one at all. |
An early bit of weapon replacement from the plucky young Greblord. |

Citadel 25mm Chaos Snotling conversion
In our many games of the excellent Chaosium RPG Stormbringer, there was a constant need for new Demons. There were these bits lying around (broken Scorpion tail, Asgard Chaos helmet) and, y'know.
This was also one of a series of snotling based conversions that used to live in the Games Workshop figure cabinets at Sheffield and Hammersmith - back when it was fun ;)

Citadel 25mm BC05 Elric Kinslayer
The BC05 Eternal Champion boxed set was a Jes Gooodwin work of art. Here's Elric Kinslayer from that Set.
Citadel 25mm EC05 Rakhir the Red
An ally of Elric, the colour scheme suggested itself. Lived in Hammersmith for some of its lifetime (1987-1990).
Citadel 25mm EC05 Dyvim Tvar
Another from the early Jes Goodwin Eternal Champion range. This one's Dyvim Tvar, a Dragon Master of Melnibone. Again, this lived in the cabinet at 1 Dalling road for some time.
Citadel 25mm EC05 Elric the White Wolf
I think I overdid the ol' albino on this one. Rodney Matthews is to blame for the colour scheme :) Another miniature that graced Games Workshop Hammersmith's cabinet.
