When I was a child, these were some of the most sought-after miniatures for their sheer heft and menace. They were also a staple of the Joe Dever/Gary Chalk armies that featured in White Dwarf and the like at that time.
The later, slottabased Chronicle range were finer sculpts with plenty of attractions of their own, but they lack the bulk and brutality of the earlier range:
I really loved those miniatures when they came out - so much so that I went to a shop in Kensington (London) and bought their entire stock on show (about 22 figures in all IIRC - but that wasn't every variant that was released). I had saved for months to get the cash for that. You have made that hobgoblin look grand - nice work
