| Is anyone aware of an oop miniature gallery for these types of minis? Preferably something that showed set/mini names or possibly even product codes.
Any links would be greatly appreciated. | |

| Thanks, thats exactly what I was looking for. I wish the images were a little better, but the originals were not all that great to begin with. | |

| I wish I could answer that, but I'm not really sure. I really cant even describe it all that well. It was a female wizard/sorcerer of some kind.  I remember the waist was particularly thin and made it look fragile. She may have been holding a crystal ball or dagger close to her body. Been a long time.
It was the first mini I ever used in a D&D game. Not sure who manufactured it actually, but I thought ral partha/grenadier would be a good start. Manufactured sometime around or before 1979. | |

| Well after about 4 to 5 hours of looking at old catalogs, and every ral partha/grenadier listing on coolminiornot I still have not located the mini. I will continue to search on ebay and other sources.
Any suggestions on other manufacturer's that made mini's in the 70's, probably no later than 1980? | |

| I ordered some of the old minis from an online store centered in Battle Creek Michigan. Mostly Julie Guthrie molds.
