Hi there folks

As I have nearly achieved collecting all the “Fantasy Armies”, I am now trying to also collect the Bitume Future Shock figurines. So far I have managed to collect 20 of them, out of the 45 existing references
If some of you have spare ones or know people who are willing to part with them, please let me know. I miss the following references :

BT1, BT3, BT4, BT7 to 10,
BT12, BT14 to BT19,
BT22, BT25, BT26, BT28, BT30,
BT34 to 36, BT40
BTV1 BTV4

Also, it seems BT1, BT3, BT15,16,17,19 have no image at all. I know Milo has updated the Lost Mini wiki database and done a lot of job about that. I have asked Prince August and Joan Collins as well as Michael O’Brien but they themselves have lost any info about them. Certainly those references have existed at a point in time but they may have been retired from sale quite early because of casting problems. Chris does not have any memory nor master about it… a pity…

I sold some blisters fews years ago but I still have some in my attics.
I will check which ones.

You are right still about the ones without images. I never found any image, despote, thèse réf are listes in a leaflet or catalog I have.

Hi Christophe, hi Milo,
I have a picture of some Bitumen references that you are missing. But it seems to me that you can’t upload pictures on this site anymore?
Should I send it to you by PM ?

Hello again everybody,
I just wanted to make a little update : it seems the BT1,3,15,16,17,19 never really existed or were in project and not done or relabelled.

as for the “existing” ones I miss I have managed to gather a lot and I only miss :

BT22,25,28,30,34 and BTV1, BTV4 … any help finding them is welcome

(NB : I also would like to find a full set of teutoburger wald…. but I think it may be VEEEERY hard or very expensive…)

Not a lot of hope but I ask again just in case :

I misse only two more Bitume : BT25 (sidecar) and BTV1 (moto with passenger firing at the back) I have managed to find all the range beside that… (mostly new under blister)

I am also looking for all the genuine (not mould casted) “FG” (fighters) subseries of the Prince August Fantasy “Friends & Foes”… It seems the FG series is the hardest to find…

And to conclude…. a M7, in blister (I know I am crazy…)

any help is welcome !
