I recognise these big guys but who/what are they (BB stars/big guys or WFB

Looking at these guys i take it they are 40K models but ive never seen them before?

This guy ive got no idea about, other than he looks like an orc mage of some sort?

These guy came in a box titled 'Golden Heroes'.

Gremlins?

These look like another set of 40K models?

The first ogre I think was the original Morg. The second ogre was their next edition attempt. There was another one like him. I have them both, but didn't like the style. They produced a lot of minis in that style for a no. of their games. The trolls are just BG's as are the Ogres. The drippy looking Troll I think had a name, I will try and find out. Don't know any of the rest.

Those Space Marine-like things are imitations from a company whose name I forgot, Galaxy Marines or something

They made a lot of cheap substitutes for GW models.

I know that the 'Golden Heroes' are Citadel Miniatures.

Yeah what he said. I think they were from Celtic Mini's or some such name, but htat's what they were Space Marine Knockoffs with a big underbite. I'm sure I've got teh DRAGON mag at home somewhere with their add from '87.

Isn't teh first Troll the First RIpper, and the second one the Rare #4?

The 'Golden Heroes' boxed set was citadel's foray into superhero figures.
This set is the super villians.

One guy (2nd left) appears to be missing his bionic arm (a mace type thing) - which is a shame - I've got one, and think he'd make a good blocker. The 'punk' would also be a good bb player or fan.

Check out GalakStarscraper's site for a full list of all the old big guys, and much more.

I have the arm for the 2nd left model and the head from the mini-man, they both had broken off in the box.

It looks like im not going to find out what those mins are by the looks of it.

What about the rough looking orc with the rock on his back? He would make a great orc coach.

it looks like a ral partha fig as well,m the ears are the same as the gremlins and the base looks like either ral partha or metal magic. have a look at www.solegends.com in some of the old catalogs under the manufacturers others have listed as well.
