I had to look at your posting twice before I realized you meant TheFantasyMuseum.

My initial thought was "Too Fu**ing Much".

Australian G3, but with high starting price for its condition (VGC at best most likely Good).

Sounds like a bargain after seeing the $10,000 wind up D&D toy a few weeks ago. :lol:

The windup is ultra-rare.
All those are ultra-common.
This should be in the Silly Prices thread.

(I'll sell you all the same figures for a tenth of that... or you can pay the extra $565 for the packaging.)

You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place.

LOL

What is that tiger-man with a miniature purple worm coming out of his butt?

What's that supposed to be?

Going by the photos on the back of the set it should be a lizard man.

Looks like at least 6 of the figures are missing their weapons. I know the seller references it the auction details. If buying you may want to check exactly how many he has as it looks like some are broken off.

The cleric, lizard man and elf in the 1st photo are missing weapons.

The fighter and thief in the 2nd photo are missing weapons.

The gnoll in the 3rd photo is missing a weapon.

This was the first miniature set I ever bought. Got it new at a shop in Wollongong, Australia about 25 years ago when it was released. I think they are pretty common though. I have seen these sets come up a lot on Ebay.

I don't think that is a high starting price. A pair sold recently in worse condition for well over $200.

Well, since it is fading instead of a tear or staining, I suppose it could go for a decent price.
Just seemed a bit high for an opening bid, but I guess that is the minimum they are willing to accept.
I've done that myself for items I was selling. :wink:

Yup, me too.
Hope it works better for you than it has me in the past.

Not D&D but an early TSR wargame

Was this one up before? I'm not a fan of reserve price auctions

This is totally off topic, but Custer should have won.

That's because they didn't take the tank.

Custer finished last in his class at West Point.
Maybe I'm paranoid but I think of that every time I visit a doctor.

I know I have left it a bit late but anybody know anything about these. They look like a nice set.
