Hi guys,

just trawling the ebay lists as you do and found these.
Now I thought I'd seen all the old daemon figs but Ive never seen the 2 on the right.  

Are they really epic figs?  Or are they the Warmaster figs people have mentioned here before (which I havent seen)?

Hi!

I remember some old chaos familiars that look similar to these. Not actual epic figs, but of suitable size.

Personally I don't think they're GW at all.

Who made them, don't know, but I am pretty sure it wasn't GW.

Hi Tas,

At least three of the figures were amde by GW in the early 1990s as "chaos familiars."

The third figure from the left is unknown to me and I have no idea who manufactures or manufactured it although it looks like a "flying monkey" from the Wizard of Oz to me!

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

The first is Slaanesh.  The identified ones are definitely GW Chaos familiars (I have Slaanesh, Tzeentch, and Nurgle ones), assuming they aren't bootlegs.

The "flying monkey"  could be one of that old line of familiars.  They had some unusual stuff.  But I don't remember it.

Ditto for the 2 on the left - never saw the flying Kong type, and I'm not convinced by the one on the right either. Still - they can be used as daemons.

Hi!

I agree. I am pretty sure three are choas familiars, the fourth as you state may be non_GW.

Yes ... 1- Slann, 2- Tzenntch, 3 - not G/W Familiars ?? ?4 - Khorne ... ?I have those + Nurgle ... those were the old Chaos Familiars, we use them for Epic G/Deamons ...  Those came out in the early 90's, like M/S said.  If you go to my Chaos pics; all four are there. Number 3 is not G/W as far as I know.  But would still work ...    :D
