Patience when I have a bug in my butt about finding something is in pretty hard to come by..  It was so strange seeing the same ones offered and NONE of the others barely even mentioned, let alone up for sale.

Ill keep refreshing ebay haha

I kept a miniature on my search list once (a Games workshop mini) for over two years.  Fianllay it came up and I got it for a reasonable price.  Ebay seems to get everything at one point or another.

Here hoping for a 1st edition guidon chainmail soon

I sell a few things to try and prop up my meager collection

Painting site is actually my wife's creation.  She paints, I collect them.

Can anyone confirm that these exist by having a blister of 'em:

5613 White Dragon, Sleet
5614 Black Dragon, Onyx
5615 Young Brass Dragon, Blaize
5616 Hill Giants
5617 Stone Giants
5618 Baku

I thought they were planned but never produced.

Oh and another surprise seeing you here, if that is your name on ebay.. I was outbid on your Black Prince Chariot of Fear..  So sad I missed it.

Guys if you do find out that the products were never released please get Foul to update the following list accordingly:

I agree.  I was actually buying TSR miniatures back in the 1980s, and I've never seen (or met anyone who's seen) those.  The dragons on that list are DragonLance characters -- if those miniatures existed, you would definitely be hearing about them from DragonLance collectors. (Also, all of those would seem to be larger than monsters TSR produced.)

TSR shut down its miniatures line pretty quickly, so there's a lot of announced products that never got produced.  Look at the back of a Star Frontiers box, for example, and you'll see all sorts of crazy things (like "Hovertank") that never got produced.
