What OOP miniatures line do you most regret not getting more of? For me it is the Stan Johansen Miniatures of the FGU SF figures – especially the Rauwoof and Blarads. Lesser regrets in that line are the Mekpurrs. Want the still available Klackons but cost per figure and storage of an army would be an issue. Still, no more Balrads and Rauwoofs are my biggest regrets. Third place would be the Grenadier Andromedans – walking mossmen. Ugly but cool and weird. Your missed opportunities you regret? Gracias, Glenn |

Citadel Traveller 15mms, although they seem to be surviving in some way, shape or form. The absolutely spectacular Citadel Call of Cthulhu 25mm range. |

A second for the 15mm Battlesystem Miniatures. Armourcast 40K Titans (particularly because I could have bought several of them at a HUGE discount when a local store was closing
) |

ADD Battlesystems and the Metal Magic Fantasy range are two that I get a lot of requests about. The Tuesedo 30 years war range made in the USA. Personally, I wish that I had gotten more of the Heritage/Empire Napoleonics, the Stone Mountain Pathans, Dervishes and Zulus when I carried those ranges. |
GoneNow | 14 Apr 2011 6:02 a.m. PST |
Most regret? I wish I had a nice sized collection of Starship Trooper bugs to go with my over sized collection of Mobile Infantry. I know you can still find most of the main units out there if you look hard enough. But some of the more limited release bugs are starting to go for bigger dollar amounts then I can afford. Otherwise original "beakie" plastic space marines. |

I agree with Mr. Sexton – the Chronicle orcs and hobgoblins (including some done for Citadel like the oriental orcs and ogres) are still some of the best ever made. I also like the old Ral Partha sculpts by Tom Meier for their fantasy army line – elves, dwarves, and orcs/goblins/imps. |

Does selling the OFM my first edition copy of Space Hulk count, or is that a different thread? |

A third vote for Heritage/Empire 15mm Napoleonettes. Though I've learned they may be available again. They have a presence on Facebook under "Empire Miniatures" (iirc). |
BW1959 | 14 Apr 2011 7:29 a.m. PST |
In addition to the 15mm Heritage/Empire Napoleonettes, I would like to add their 15mm Classics, & Confederattes. Also Mikes Models 7YW range. |

The non-completion of Heritage's beautiful 15mm ancients line after the death of the sculptor. He never got to the Hellenic and Hellenistic eras. |

Heritage's Lord of the Rings figs based on the Bakshi movie. Heritage's Star Trek and Galacta lines. More of Eureka's Planet of the Apes infantry. Heritage's Ancients. I have two complete armies, but more of each and having the rest of the range completed would have been great. GW plastic Imperial Guard and Beakies. I have a decent amount of both. But more would be great. Thanks, John |

I second the FASA Star Trek ships. I just bought the RPG just as they lost the license and dropped the line. |
Space Monkey | 14 Apr 2011 11:40 a.m. PST |
I wish I'd bought more Epic Space Ork stuff when it was readily available. Same with Rackham elves, drunes and undead
but I never really had the chance to buy them while they were on the shelves. Also the Industial Gothic minis
though I did buy up what little I ever ran across. |

Metal Magic Spacelords Sardaykin Legionaires. Really cool figs and by far the hardest of the Spacelords to find today. Enigma not-Space Marines. I know they weren't the best looking figs ever, but the space marines with Adeptus arbite helmet look was pretty cool and they were dirt cheap in the early 90's. Why didn't I buy them? Demonblade Shockforce Megacom Troopers. However, it looks like I may have a second chance as Megaminis is slowly bringing them back into production. Also I got a few at the little Wars, but there are some great officer figs, Special forces and HW's that are unavailable now. |

So many ! Minifigs ME Minifigs SS Minifigs VFW Minifigs AR Minifigs SF (1st time) Minifigs SF (2nd range – but only the aliens) Minifigs D&D Chronicle miniatures – the coolest orcs ever Why didn't I have more pocket money ? Mithril Miniatures – when they were still pricey but affordable – why didn't I blow my salary on them ? Metal magic – should have got a lot more of these, really nice figures fantasy and SF ranges Asgard – why don't I have 200 of the 25mm Trimotes ? (pocketmoney again I fear) Minot – Thane Tostig
..why oh why did they have to go out of production, I was buying as fast as I could
Derkriegspieler Fantastique – why did they have to be more than twice the price of UK figures ? (Pocketmoney issues again here) Garrisson – why haven't I ordered from their SS range yet ? Am I stupid ? |
skinkmasterreturns | 15 Apr 2011 2:14 a.m. PST |
I used to regret the !5mm Battlesystem fantasy figs,but with companies like Splintered Light filling out that void,it really isnt that big an issue with me,anymore. |

the original Spencer Smith 30mm figures featured in Charles Grant;s " The Wargame" and sold by the old gentlemen himself. Mot exactly OOP but today are more expensive In the old days Mr Smith was a 30 minute drive from my mother in law's house so could pop in and get what I wanted plus an interesting chat. |
