I am missing only one fig to complete my GW side of the BB collection... I know is a long shot but worth asking.
Looking for the witch elf referee
If you have it and want to sell it just pm me... I may sell a kidney for it
Or if you have any info on the sculptor or who may own it.

Good luck! Thats the only one i m missing since a few years, too, for my collection.
If you find two of them give me a call!
If i think i got one of them in my hands already once and took another mini as price ... argh!!

I thought I'd heard mention of a fabled CD#7 that never saw release. Maybe not.

Mold was broken in ?test? casting. GW had a product code for it but figure was never released in the end...
or did I dream all this?
oh by the way Traveller,. when clicking on the link in your signature I get to what I would think is your website but there are no categories/tree structure to the left as before. It says "datafile not found". Or is that just at my side?

I thought it was CD #6 that was 'unreleased'?

As far i remember, there is a thread about the famous #7 somewhere here at TFF
and someone (Galak ?) got the information about the broken mold and told it here.
#6 is not so often seen IMO. So maybe one of the rare ones?
@Aino
At my side the link is working while using a MAC at work. It takes only a moment for the Flash-menu to load.
Are you using a ipad to visit my site? This would the reason of this problem as i still searching
for a good (and cheap) way/software to convert my site with the flash galleries into HTML5 for all users.
.... but i need also time for this project, too!

#7 had a product number (073498-14) but the master mould did not come out correctly for that miniature.
As happened in the early days of miniatures (not so much now) ... the green was severely damaged from the mastering process. GW decided not to repair the figure. So no green, no master ... no production mould = the figure never existed beyond the sculpture and a pre-assigned part number.
Was able to talk to one of the original people that worked the mould room at GW who was around when this happened and was able to give me 1st hand testimony on the fate of that figure.

#6 had a part number ... 073498-13 ... but it was not mass marketed. So you can get it ... but it is much rarer than the others ... but is obtainable.
Image of #6:

Old page I made ... the top section is out of date ... but the rest of the information is still good with the images.

I've had several CD#6s so it is definitely one you can get hold of.

Old page I made.
Yep, this was THE page which was so much helpful when I started collecting years ago and before I didn't own the old printed citadel catalogs.
Thx, Galak, for clarification again.
