Nice. Those are really hard to find. Are you looking to sell or trade any of them?

Thank you. Not interested in selling. Been collecting for 30 years. I’ve got 10 Ray Rubin original art oil on acrylics of the ad&d line and the dragon lords. Plus I’ve got over 30 original paintings and artist studies of the ad&d modules and books. Plus signed first run proof sets of every single thing that Grenadier put out. Every single box of figures. I got to know Andrew Chernak and I was rewarded.

Wow, congrats!!! Just for curiosity: have you got anything by Diterlizzi from the Planescape line of products?

Very nice, and I’ve not seen the far-right one before—is it Rayr from the Adventuring Party set, or a different figure? The angle makes it hard to tell.

Some of those Rubin pieces of art are items I’d love to use in a DM screen someday!—have you by chance done any high-resolution scans of them, mark1107?

The wizard of Tamerlin is a 1 in a million item and only one was ever sculpted and crafted in 18k pure gold. They only did the contest and figure one time and advertised it in the 1990 gencon program as a treasure hunt. The guy that won saved it all of these years and just sold it to me on ebay.

The two gold figures in the yellow bag are the solid gold proofs given to Gary gygax by Andrew Chernak the owner of Grenadier. It was the only figures madenin sold gold for Gary. The other Grenadier figures are gold plated not solid gold.
