I have an old pack of Hard Corp. 15mm Fantasy Armies figures. It is HMIE02 Elven Archers (1 Leader, 1 Standard Bearer, 16 Archers). The plastic box has yellowed, the figures look pretty old school but the packaging was pretty snazzy for its day (I'm guessing this must be a late 80's or early 90s range).

Does anybody know anything about this manufacturer or range? What years they were produced? If there is a list of their ranges?

I did a Google search and came up empty. The pack has an address of P.O. Box 1234, Tomball, TX 77377. Any and all info appreciated!

Interesting. I have never hear of that company or those figures.

I have some of their wolf riders that I bought at Cold Wars '93.I'm pretty sure somebody bought the figures that then became "Blood Dawn"(Reaper?) that then became something else.

I just had a peek over at Magister Militum 15mm fantasy under "Blood Dawn"(ex Reaper),and those are definately the old Hard Corps wolf riders.I cant say about any of the other figures,because the riders are the only ones that I've ever seen.

Thanks, skinkmaster – you provided far more info than I ever knew on this range! I'm glad to at least know someone else had heard of/bought them. 1993 makes sense as well. If memory serves I bought my pack in a close out bin so maybe I got them sometime closer to 1995…Didn't see Elves in the Blood Dawn catalog although those pics of the other figures looked similar in style. Maybe they didn't get the whole range? Maybe I didn't look deep enough (the MM site was loading painfully slow)?

A great lead and the search continues!

Youre welcome.I'm just glad that somebody else has heard of this range.I do recall seeing them advertised in the old Courier.If I recall rightly,there was a bow and arrow as part of their logo.

Bow and arrow logo over a bullseye – that's the one.
