Can anyone help me identify this model? link It's a Ral Partha Giant dated 1977. I'm interested in finding out who sculpted it and if the model had a name. BigLee Blog link |

Can't wait to see the paint up on him. I like the Gallic style helmet he has on. |

Hey, I've got that figure! (I've even got a second and third version of the figure.) Yep, it was called Hill Giant. Didn't know it was Meier, though, that was nice to know. |

Let's see
In 1977 Tom would have been about 18. I think he was the only in-house Partha sculptor until 1979 when Dennis Mize was hired. IIRC there were a couple of fellows who worked freelance in 1978. Regards, the Gorb |
