While searching through my lead pile I came across a GW sculpt from the 80's of a Dwarf sitting on a toilet! Is it worth anything? or should I keep it for the sake of nostalgia? |

A part of the old "Up the Wall Crew" set, possibly. You might find a buyer, but it was a larger set and the real collectors will be looking for the whole thing. If you use a Dwarf army, consider finishing the model for use as some sort of odd psychology marker. |

It's not part of the up the wall crew. It came later mid to late 80's It was released in a blister and is called "The incontinenced Dwarf", I think it's a 3 part model dwarf, pan and cistern. |

Frighteningly enough, I have all three. There was a vague notion about making a privy diorama (doors marked "Law" and "Chaos") to go with the tavern diorama I never started. Wyatt |

The 'inconvenienced dwarf' was a stand alone model and not part of the 'up the wall gang. It does get quite a good price on e-bay as do the other toilet themed models

I was at a GW managers meeting where we were tasked with making the vilest diorama we could think of using their figures. Of the hundred or so entries, I counted about 20 with that chap on. (Our '40k Characters in a public toilet' Diorama was good, especially the Tyrannid using the urinal
. while standing outside the room. But the High Elf Brothel topped the lot.) Pat |

I had one of those dwarves, thought it was stupid. I cut the legs apart, painted it like he was wearing tights and big floppy boots, then mounted him on a dinasaur. |
