(I’ve gotten burned a few times buying what are effectively cast mould figures masquerading as original pre-casts, but these very much appear to the the real thing: observe the crispness of the detail)
Item Number: 110722557437

Gavin, to me [mith]CH7[/mith] is not the original as it shall come with a sword, not a bow.
Just to inform, and if I remember well, mine had a much more “mate” aspect.

Milo – That thing is exceedingly rare. It’s the totally-not-the-witch-king on totally-not-a-fell-beast. I’ve only ever seen allusions to it – never the actual thing.

So…congratulations!

(Also, weirdly, my CH 07 always had a sword, even waaaaaaaaaaay back in the dark days of the 1980s. The reason being is that the figure is a Dungeons and Dragons Elf, which later became the default AD+D Elf Fighter-Mage. So, he’s casting a spell, and about to stab something)

Hi Gavin,

I received a lot containing something very nice, but totally unknown from me, totaly unfindable on google:

a nazgûl, mounted on fell beast, with “Prince august MS6” on its base.

Mace is broken but I also have the missing part which I repaired just after taking this pic.

Does anyone know anything about it ?
The beast and Nazgûl look like MB279 aslo. Maybe a prework from CT ?

ho, by the way Master Gildor, in this lot, there is OR16:

Thanks Gavin, I will provide a better image with repaired mace then.

This find is a funny story as I bought this lot because of M316 I was missing. I asked the man if he had anything left, and he sent me his old stuff. (Then I found another M316 which will go to Rick once it reaches my home)

congrats, the orc looks great!

i believe the bow is only included, because the sword went missing, but it doesn’t mean that the elf isn’t genuine.

well I am after the OR16 and MS6/UN6 and DR1 (I already have the naked women that goes with it so I actually only miss the dragon, there is no base for it)

though your pic does not match the DR1 at all strangely [imgz url=http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/2_dr1_-_hungry_dragon_with_victims.jpg]http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/thumbs/2_dr1_-_hungry_dragon_with_victims.jpg[/imgz]

are you sure this dragon is from Prince August, it does not fit really…

we should gang up, i’m on the lookout for the prince august stuff (minus the mounted nazgûl on fell beast) as well, the or16 is tasty.

It’s always good to have an expert nearby as you are Gildor !
My dragon may turn to be a Ral Partha or something else then….which would also explain I do not have naked women.

Master cameosis, do you know this dragon ?

mmh as ral partha it would make more sense, it really looks like a ral partha long naked dragons… PA and Chris never sculpted dragons with such long necks

well master Cameosis, i would gladly leave the OR16 away, I prefer the mounted nazgul a lot more than the orc on saurian mount

I am currently trying to identify the giant winged lezard…
You can send me private mails regarding OR16 & MS6, I will answer.

I found it, this dragon is from Ral Partha: it is “10-460 Black Dragon of Fire & Darkness” by Nicholas Bibby Sculptor.
Mine has ears missing.

I think I may bid on the CH2,5,6,7 lot and eventually the doors…. I don’t have any of those references, too bad I won’t get the swords for CH2 and CH7….

you probably won’t get the figures, either — international bidding has been disabled, unless you have contacted her earlier. i usually snipe, and therefore haven’t sent her a message, but i wanted other figures and remembered too late that she has to enable bidding.

Master Gildor, the dragon is the right one and it is from PA.

well yes I know this picture but do you mean you have this set master holger?

the one provided by Milo was indeed ral partha as for the boxed set I have the naked girls already but not the dragon

well the [mith]CH2[/mith] pic (if you click on the pic on the reference sheet page) is somewhat a closeup, as for CH7 alas I don’t have better pic than [mith]CH7[/mith]

I think I may provide pics of the friends and foes soon but I need to ask the man what he did or not … I don’t want to mix up chris tubb sculpture with non-chris tubb sculptures…

you could mark them as non-tubb sculpts and still add them to the database.

milo, i sent you a message regarding or16.
