It was cool to see their full color ads when many of the miniature ads from RAFM and Ral Partha were black and white.

The fact the unreleased Dwarf wizard appears suggests this just an image of studio paint-jobs rather than an indication of the exact offering.

Growing up in Canada, I don't ever remember seeing this when I was a snotling.<br />Do you know what issues of Dragon Magazine this ran in? Going through old backissues of Dragon, I'm often intrigued by the odd perspectives it casts on Games Workshop -- reviews of 1st edition Warhammer (not favourable) or adverts for Citadel Miniatures made by RAFM (a Canadian company).<br />Anyway, I hope that during one of your interviews with the grandees of Citadel, you're able to throw a little light on the mystery of this range.matthewjksullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08126108200355039621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-4344705223540788372016-06-12T18:23:53.175-07:002016-06-12T18:23:53.175-07:00Hm.

Would make sense if there wasn't many figures in the range but the ad is chocker block full of different figures so why have duplicate figures in there? Really strange.
