Old Miniatures Catalogs (Grenadier, Ral Partha, etc)


Check out this link to Mini Mag's History page, where you can download .pdfs of some ancient miniatures catalogs, like this 1982 Grenadier catalog.

Talk about nostalgia!

Nice to see pics of some of these, many of which I had (unpainted and painted) but have been lost to the vagaries of time...

    I've always liked the art on those old boxes.

    There's also a gold mine of old catalog .pdf's at dndlead.com.

    Cool! Ah the memories of badly painted minis! Makes me want to go home and just start painting.

    Wow, that cover brings back memories! I think that I actually preferred the Grenadier box covers over the miniatures themselves.

    There's several of these sets at my local antique store.

    Huh. There are actually some Ral Partha, etc. minis in a big box at my FLGS. Think I should grab them?
