andy Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Shelter-in-place is boring. Be exciting and post up a pic of the oldest model in your 40k collection. Here's mine. Bought him soon after Z-Games opened in Vancouver... anyone remember what year they opened? '99 or '00, maybe? 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikin Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 My oldest models are tyranids. I got them during 2nd edition. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Not technically Warhammer 40,000 figures as you requested, but they’re still some of the oldest Gee Dub figures in my current collection. Say “Well met, travelers!” to the stars of 1995’s original Warhammer Quest: For bonus nerd-stalgia points, here is the very first miniature I ever painted, still in his original K-Mart craft paint paint job. From way back in 1990. Officially, he’s Mithril Miniatures’ Celeborn, King of Lothlórien, but to me he’ll always be Christian Pathwarden, Cleric of Mishikal. He was my very first AD&D character. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 This isn't the oldest 40K Model I have, but it's the oldest one I bought and painted while it was in production. Got it sometime in '97. It's had some touch ups since then, and the left arm was replaces at some point, but the base Model, backpack, and base are all original issue. I have a number of RT-era Models, but I got them all second-hand, and I really don't know which of them would be oldest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron W Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 A 40K renegade with (before it broke off and I lost it) a missile launcher. I would've bought him at Comic Book World in Florence, KY - I guess it would've been around 1988 or so? He's been waiting for me to finish painting him for 30+ years - sorry, pal! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
