I purchased these photos last year and finally just got around to really looking at them. My guess is that they were taken in the early eighties, though I would have expected a greater variety of dice colors by then... so maybe a bit earlier.(?) Thought I would share in case somebody here recognizes a buddy from way back when... and just because they are awesome.

and three more....

Those are really cool pictures.  Thanks for sharing.  I never got into the mini fig stuff.  Looks like one would need a lot of room to play and setup must be a beast too.  Are all those pieces hand painted?
