Title: Picture Wish Thread
Post by: Lopis on June 09, 2009, 11:14:02 AM
So, I wanted to open a place to call for pics of models you wanted to see or donīt know exist or you need inspiration to convert....
you get my meaning I think......

Thought it would be best to post them in the army-gallery section, but here could be a good place , too.
For easier finding.

Iīll make the first call:
Most of them can be seen on prince augustīs, but the images arenīt the best to get and i would like better closeups ;-)
I would like to see pics of:

Ducal Militia GL Spec

Henrick Wolf

Konrad von Juntz

Valerie Duval

Well the last three exist.  As for the first one, I don't have any pics of mine but it's not that impressive.

Valerie Duval

Which version?  There are two.

I know only of the one with two Nightsticks, but that could be both I fear.
Iīd say I know the "old one", then one in the UWZ book.
Yes crosschecked, I know the old one.

So Iīd like to see the new one.

I would love to see a converted Martian Banshees specialist with a yellow happy face (bloody bullet hole optional).





Dave gave me the idea for this.

I'll go digging for her tonight and see if I can post the pic.

Valerlie Duval.... the first version of the New Sculpt.

  The main difference between this sculpt and the one that replaced it not long afterward was arm positioning and # of pieces.  This one has the arms separate.  the last version had only one arm separate.

Standing next to her is Wolfe... one of three(?) I think I have.

And here is another view

I have more than few oddities among my models... like the elusive Mortant light flamer and the Militia Rocket Launcher man.

I have never seen those figures. When were they released?

Thanks Archer!
You have 3 (three??) Wolfeīs and the RL and LFT ?
You should play the lottery ;-)

If memory serves.....

Both are 2nd Edition figs and were released prior to Target taking a dumper on warzone.  The mould for Wolfe went missing and one of mine was used to re-create it for 3rd.

I don't believe the mould for the Val fig was ever found in the transitions.... which is why the older one is still in use. ( I Think!!)

All those except Valerie Duval 2nd has come up on Ebay for me, so they should def be available one shiny day. The Duval 2nd is ultra rare or what? If there's only 10 in existence it might be hard to catch.. The first version was hard enough to find for me at least.

  Well...  I don't think she is that limited an edition... but then she had not been out long before transition from Target to Excelsior.  I had two but I'm not sure if I hung on to the 2nd one or traded it off.  Too many boxes of figs.

Aha. Well I would think Prince August could have some laying around then. I guess they only need a pic to identify the mini to start selling her. It's amazing how many miniatures they suddenly find in the apparently huge Target stockpile. Thanks for the pics guys :)

It seems like most of the Warzone mini's inventory has dried up IMHO. There are alot of people who want figs but cannot get them. Judging from the posts on this board. There has to be game stores that have them currently.

I think pretty much from now on if you want a Warzone fig you have to trade for it (several sites) or buy it on e-bay. I know my friends who used to play Warzone/Chronopia have held on to their personal figs. I was able to get all the reamining Warzone/Chronopia figs from my frien d who owned a game store and trade/give away them with Dave here.
