Then make three times that. It should be enough for half the roof Glue
You could certainly amass quite a collection of testicles

More ultra rare minis located on a collectors site.

I have been reliably informed that the top collectors in the world don't have the Nuln Spearmen and Guard Captain, and my chances of obtaining them are about 1:10,000..

Check out Greeley

The guy listed as 817 is the one of the figure's I purchased just after Thanksgiving, along with his two friends, mentioned previously.

Interestingly ... the horse my figure came with looked different than the one in that picture, and so I pulled it out this morning, and confirmed that it is.  Although the horse I have is the same one that came with the other two figures, too.

Plus, get this ... it looks like the figure in the picture doesn't have a shield, and maybe instead a nob to put on one of those plastic ones?  Or maybe this is just because that picture is too small to see the shield clearly.  However, with the figure I have, the shield is molded as part of the figure.

I got a call out to my sister to see if I can borrow her digital camera.

Someday maybe I'll buy my own. :icon_lol:

Seriously, I just checked again, and on the back side of the sheild its clearly been scuplted as being strapped to his arm.  There is also a cape that can be attached to a small hole at the top of his back.

The other two knights have arms loose with shields attached, but what's interesting about those is each shield has a slight crack in the metal at the bottom, probably some sort of molding issue.

The 3 horses for those three riders are all the same, and one piece with a single wide slot at the bottom, no armor, but instead more of a Bretonnian look to them, yet without the hood, and being able to fully see the horse's head.

At the same time, the two other knights that came with the guy in the picture look like they could be Empire or Bretonnian, and such was the style of the various figures back then.

Ah!  The closer view shows that the figure I have is not like that one, so it can't be the same one.  Too many differences, including the head being tilted to the left in that image, and the figure I have is looking more straight forward, while the one I have has a monkish hair cut.

Hmmm.  Seems I still don't know what I've got.  Need to put up a photo. :icon_lol:

Looks like one of the retainers is a rare one, too?  And what about the other retainer holding the helmet?

Excellent paint jobs on these oldies!  :icon_biggrin:

But I have to say that many - about half - of the Fighter & DoW sculpts are substandard when it comes to proportions and poses. Now, burn me as a non-fanboy-heretic...  :-P
