Hi guys, does anyone remember what the price for a blister of 2 warhounds, or 1 reaver used to be? (Early nineties, late eighties). Thanks!

From ?5 in the eighties to ?10 in the end of times for Epic. Times change, eh?  :blues:

IIRC, they were $10 US when I started playing ca.1991.

I know that the Phantom titan was definitely $10 because it was the first Epic mini I bought and I can't imagine the Reaver being much different.  The Warhounds _might_ have been $15 for a pair, but I think they were $10.

I think the Reaver might have been $8 in when AT first came out.

I have some White Dwarfs dating back to shortly after AT was released. I know they have pics of titans and prices might be included. I'll try to remember to dig them out and take a look.

Hi Guys,

It's been awhile, but I dinstinctly remember the first Titans in 1991 going for around $11.95 USD and the price kept on growing. They were jammed into blister packs then.

Warlord Titans were plastic and came in a box, six for $20.00 USD.

The large metal kits came in weird plastic boxes with sliding lids and cost $20.00 to $25.00 USD. These were the Hellbore, Great Gargant, and Capitolis Imperialis.

Most of the regular blister-packed minis cost between $5.95 to around $11.95 USD based upon how much lead went into the mini.

The mini-boxes with styrofoam trays hadn't come out yet.

We did have the boxed sprue sets though which had SM-1 plastic sprues.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Hi!

I used to retail back then. They were 9.99 for two warhounds or one reaver. Blisters of non-titans were 6.99 and otehrs 8.50 (usually superheavies). Boxes of infantry were 19.99.
