Need help identifying a bunch of miniatures

Hi guys,
I was given a bunch of old miniatures - mostly preslotta era - that I am having trouble identifying. Some I know are Citadel and can identify easily enough. Some are Grenadier, some may be Citadel but I am not sure, others I have no idea what so ever! I am hoping that the knowledgeable folk on her can clear up some of the mysteries for me. (I have posted this on my blog as well so feel free to answer in whichever forum suits you best)

Lets get on with it then.

1: Citadel Beastman number 3 (Kiss of Death) http://solegends.com/citcat1988/0207rocbeast-01.htm

2: Citadel beastman (Wolfman?) http://www.solegends.com/citcat1984comp ... 034-01.htm

3 : Grenadier Lizard men (Fantasy Lords blister #28?)

So that's the lot of them. I eagerly look forward to working out what a lot of these guys are, that's half the fun of this Oldhammer gig after all :) Please let me know which miniatures you are able to identify.

In no particular order (ok backwards)
#21 is an Orc Villager
#18 are orcs from 1st & 2nd page of the orcs in the 1988 catalogue
#17 are preslotta Citadel orcs mainly Haroths troopers it would seem (nice find them)
#16 is a Grenadier wolf rider
#13 is a citadel orc - possibly a champion
#10 ditto

some of the rest are familiar but I'm tired

I had never even heard of Broo before this. Are they a type of Chaos Beastmen used in RuneQuest?

Its more chaos beastmen are a type of Broo used in warhammer.

Nasty creatures Broo, don't go near them when they are in rut is all I can say.

Pretty much got almost all of the miniatures identified now, only the following remain:
#22 (it is Grenadier but I can't find out more than that)
#15 No real idea on these guys, just an assumption they are Grenadier
#5 No idea

I own him, and yes the lance arm is missing on yours. Mine's painted, and proved a worthy foe in the late 80s, early 90s sometime when my brother was a jousting mad WFRP knight searching for opponents to make his name.

I have since found his arm so the miniature is complete :)

and Phreedh, I will send you a mail, saw your post on my blog too.

Sigh. Nothing like seeing the your old models given to someone, given to someone else... I think you should give me them melniboneans... :razz:

I gave ALL of them to Gav originally. (So I hope he didn't charge you for them). I still don't really want 'em but since I got investigating this 3rd ed gig it suddenly dawned on me how much trade value I gave away. sigh. Ah well. I hope at least you get some good use out of them. :)

PS you may recognize the checkers yellow band orks, as well as the dude with the visa logo on his shield - Motto: Like it? CHARGE IT!

hahaha, yeah I noticed the logos on the shields :)
Gav didn't charge me anything for them, although he should have!
