There was an unpainted fat one that went for around $32.50 the other day and another tall one up a few months ago that went for $25.  They seem to pop up from time to time.

I've always been curious as to what the rear of those casts looks like compared to the old Kev Adams gants.

Resin body? What is this model then? Did the early ones have resin bodies?

Yup. There's two old types with resin bodies. One "apple shape" and one "pear shape". There's a few around thoughI got no idea exactly how many were produced. I got one but still miss the tall one in my collection.  There's also a pre-mk1 metal gargant (similar to the prototype Warlord titan) but I've only ever seen one of those in existence.

Man this got me thinking... If there are so many recasters out there... Why doesnt anyone recast a bunch of the unreleased mk0 metal warlords? They look better than the current ones, so wtf... If things were cool, GW would do it themselves! Ok Im ranting here so shoot me down...  Want those old minis so bad :_(

I'm bidding on this one.

On the Mk0, having just picked up most of one, it is fair to say they are pretty crude, and the leg joints are very fragile for such a top heavy model.

I think the 2 resin Gargants were supposed to be representative (war)idols of Gork & Mork ... the Ork gods ...  :alien:  Those G/W guys, Dey B funnY !!  :vD
