I really dig those Black Orcs, especially that musician with the massive gong shield. The gobbo boss with the double bladed axe is another favourite of mine.
I have a collector's question and perhaps you can crack this little mystery. It's been bugging me a long time as an O&G collector.
See those fanatics that you've got? There are six in total from that range and I believe I have five of them. Or do I? The crux is that there are two that seem indistinguishable from each other in any catalog ref I have ever found — 3 and 6 shown here. Maybe there's something about the eyes or teeth that differs slightly but I can't really be sure. Maybe there is something entirely different in the rear view out of sight?
I have two that look like 3/6 but they seem identical in real life so I believe I have two duplicates. I'd like to get my hands on the missing one some day to satisfy my collectamania but I don't even know what to look for in the missing figure. Can you help me out? You've got three that look like the culprit. There is of course the chance that you have identical ones like I do, but I am hoping not.
Are yours all the same or can you spot any difference at all?

Yes they areThey are from the Blacktree design range sculpted by the enematic Kev Adams. Really.nice minis and I had always thought that black orcs should be blue.

Here are the two I've got. I am leaning towards thinking I have two of the "6"' but not sure. Would be very helpful to see both versions in the same photo if anyone's got them.
