Wanted: Ral Partha Winged Panther

[Glenn M]

I know this is a long shot, but my first miniature ever was a Winged Panther figure, I am nearly positive it was by Ral Partha.  If by chance does anyone have one, and if so, could you post pictures/be persuaded to part with it.

It should still exist somewhere at my parents house, but I haven't seen it for near 15 years.  I would love to get one for my collection to place in a position of honor.

I think I found it, and yes your memory was correct it is Ral Partha.

That will be very difficult to obtain!!  A true beauty though.

Apparently it's from one of the first series they ever put out. Difficult, but not totally impossible to find, but probably not on the cheap.

Yeah, I do believe that is it, though I don't recall the fur on the wings, either way, I hope I can get one.

I recall walking into a little book store around the time Magic was just starting up, we played a little D&D and I had like $5 I bought this and a Pegasus.  I'll talk to my dad and make sure if he finds it to set it aside.

Now, I hope it stays low, right now I really can't afford it (hell I never can) but my wife has agreed to allow me up to $10 before shipping for this figure alone, solely on sentimental value.  Normally I try to run on a $2 per head limit.  Keeps her happy.  Except then I tend to buy in bulk . . . .

I'll put it on my watch list and keep an eye out on it. What is your eBay userid so I know it's you bidding?

I just hope to have enough money for all this.  Do I really need the phone, hmmm?

[Glenn M]

Booya, $2!!!!!

I love it, I also managed to pick up the Pod Racers I wanted for a bit over $5 for 9 racers.

I just got my Panther today, shipping took a while and the blister has had the **** kicked out of it, but the figure was in good shape.  I forgot how different lead feels to modern pewter.  It's nice.  Now, to wash my hands so I can eat.
