      i’d have a question regarding the [mith]m145[/mith] figure: i have two versions, one with two alternative heads and a »regular« one, cast in two pieces (mouth of sauron and horse).

      does anybody know which was the first version and how they compare rarity wise? thanks a lot.

          Ah, yes! I can help you, Master of Funk Music!
          The m145 is the original figure, from the range: “Gorgoroth”.
          This figure was released with two different heads. As far as I am told, this “edition” is pretty rare
          and everybody could be lucky owning this figure (me included! 😎 ) .

          The other one seems to be the MC 24! Mithril re-released some figures as co called Mithril-Classics.
          Against your oppinion, this miniature is NOT the original one, though there is m142 under the horses´base . . .
          But the head is fixed with the corpus. And that prooves the MC-edition.
          This is contrare to what Gildor told in his database. The head of the MC24 is defenetly ONE piece with the corpus.

          So, that´s all I know about shrimps . . . as Master Forest Gump would tell . . . 😆

          By the way: a fantastic horse!

            the original one has four parts, two heads, horse and body, as said in the reference sheet.

            maybe the one with only one head is the MC24 re-release in mithril classics? and the mc24 is not rare at all

            I think the version with two heads is the rarest

                This is what I said, isn´t it . . .

                  I know I am reviving an old thread but…. is there somebody around who could provide me a close-up picture of the two heads (unpainted) of the M145

                  I have them myself but painted and hard to get a good pic.. Thanks in advance :)

                    ups.. I didn’t know that. I have the figure in two versions, each with one head. Do you mind if I take the photos with the heads already mounted on their respective minis? if it’s ok, I can try to take some close photos this week.

                      I can do that, Master Gildor. I still keep an old one with both heads added with the original sprews to the body.
                      Sub-reference reads “M 145 B I” from 1990 (if I got that right – missing my magnifying glasses). Must be that one you’re asking for. – As for close-up pics I need better weather for taking pics. Nevertheless, it’s on my agenda for the coming weekend. So, I’ll do what I can. – Would be nice to have Master Imisel’s pictures, too. Quite interesting that is. ;)

                          ah your pic is perfect Turambar, but I’d need a closeup on the heads actually :)

                          (it is not for me, it’s for a special request from the Man actually… Believe it or not, neither Mithril nor Chris have a copy nore pictures of the two heads anymore oO that’s a rarity…)

                            I’ll take the close up of heads tomorrow afternoon if possible, Gildor.

                              Well, it’s weekend and so there are those pictures. I just hope they come close to what you wanted, Master Gildor.

                                That is the old figure. Now the heads …

                                I hope the pics are sufficient for what you (or The Man) wanted. In case they aren’t, let me know, please. I always feel glad whenever I can be of some help. As I subscribed to be responsible for this Mathom House of Michel Delving, I try to do my best.

                                  Maybe he doesn´t like the pictures you provided exactly for him, Master Tree . . . :rolleyes:
