My character sheet of choice from back in the day.
Fond memories indeed. (I guess not difficult to find as a pdf if I were to get back to the dungeon)

You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place.

I didn't see it.
For that price it would have been worth picking up regardless of what it was.
It's format is in keeping with the products that were play tested at conventions back in those days.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Just a guess, but I think it may be a Circus Maximus variant produced by a war-game club.

Available now from Die Cast Games: Night of the Black Swords by Allen Hammack (Author of C2-The Ghost Tower of Inverness) with artwork by Jeff Easley and Diesel.

Based on what I could see of the rules, it was a play-by-mail game.

Does anyone run a PBM or by email game? Try and resurrect that old school vibe

This is not exactly "interesting" but funny:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Unless it has been produced for a specific scope (like a con or similar), i wonder why on earth someone should buy one of these mini...

Maybe i am wrong, but i have no memory of someone who mentioned this convention...

According to the artwork it'd be related to frpgs... If it is in Texas, then it'd be closer to rpgs than other states...

I think people bought things like that just for the fun of painting. I don't think they ever intended them to be played with. Like the dwarf on stilts, or the vorpal kitty which is stupidly difficult to find and just as pointless. Wasn't there a goblin rock band or something too?

That’s a bargain too, those random (non playing minis) were quite rare

What are you talking about? Doesn't anyone around here understand strategy & tactics as depicted in fiction? Where to begin...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Guns_(film)
"One of the men on their list of warrants, Buckshot Roberts (Keith), tracks them down and barricades himself in an outhouse"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Child ... of_Thrones)
"Tyrion, before escaping, sneaks into the Tower of the Hand... then confronts Tywin as he sits on the privy, and kills him with a crossbow when he repeatedly dismisses his son's feelings."

Pulp Fiction - Wikipedia
"Returning to his apartment to retrieve it, he notices a submachine gun on the kitchen counter and hears the toilet flush. When Vincent exits the bathroom, Butch shoots him dead and departs."
"Earlier, after Vincent and Jules have killed Brett in his apartment, another man bursts out of the bathroom and shoots at them"
"While Vincent is in the bathroom, a couple, "Pumpkin" and "Honey Bunny" hold up the restaurant...Vincent returns with his gun aimed at her, but Jules defuses the situation"

Martin Scorsese's Mean Streets - FuriousCinema.com
"Later on, a young mafioso punk (Robert Carradine) comes in to the bar. When the he sees a drunk man (David Carradine) he’s after enter the bathroom, he goes in and shoots him point blank."

Aren’t you aware that it’s not a facility to defecate in, but actually a gunge tank, just beware of pulling the chain

Funny finding:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

This seems to be a JG product in the world of discs...

Are you kidding? A mini of a dwarf on the porcelain throne? I'd get 3. One for my keychain, two to use in dioramas. The toilet could be magical, -50% chance to have constipation and an unseen servant inside for wiping.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.
