it's a very old citadel mini, mid-late 80's somewhere... been out of the ranges for a long time, but does have some notoriety as a viable dwarf apo figure with a citadel pedigree... wouldn't be a bad pickup for a collection, but isn't fropm teh bb line.

Thats one of the 5 different dwarf wizards of the dwarf adventurers. designed by the Perry´s. I got four of those 5 different ones in my "normal " warhammer collection of old Dwarfs... but this is no BB mini.

... and yes, Utrecht dwarf connection, i´m collecting those dwarfs , too.

.... and yes, stingger, all not painted, too. :wink:

be prepared for some real dwarf silliness, including the dwarf samurai, the dwarf ratcatcher and the dead drunk dwarf.

If anyone has 'AXE1' I'd be very interested in buying it. I consider it a Dwarf Slayer before GW knew what a Slayer was. It's the last mini I need to complete my collection of GW/Marauder Dwarf Slayers.

Give GW MO a call, maybe they still have it in there (or did you try that already?)

well, if this is going to be a request page, i've been wishing i had a couple of the dwarf runner figures for a couple of years since i saw some mixed in with a batch of 2e dwarfs on ebay that bid out of my budget... i'd certainly be willing to put together a decent trade for some...

You mean the Dwarf adveenturers Runners or the BB runners

If the first, check this link:

Phil...

please tell me, if you could order those minis. Damm, i just order something... maybe i can ask them to put some more minis in.

Argh, i paid a lot for some of them. I never want to convert the old ones for BB. I used the drunken dwarf for the fan of my stadium and removed all weapons.

I just thought about using that (archive) dwarf runner for the dwarf runner position in a 2nd ed. fig team?

Anyway, you folks should not wait too long.
I noticed that GW is rotating their on-line archive section. They changed it after X-mas, but I do not know if they are gone for good or are just not available directly through the store menu. A guy told me that GW is getting rid of their back catalogue (like old BB minis) but then the BB star player archive vanished from MO-UK but you still can track them via the search engine and order them.
Puzzling as ever...
