I remember when they re-released the original pre-slotta regiments of renown and me and my brothers bought some by mail order - and were sent some of the slotta Grom junk because they'd sold out of the pre-slotta version. Their faces look like they're melting or cartoons. I will say the pre-slotta version are immensely better modelled - the second, slotta base version look like they've been modelled by a beginner in a very great hurry. I was tempted to just write 'are you blind?', but that'd just be rude. I would imagine this is probably the reason why the guard was remodlled.'

The only bit i disagree with is where you write on Grom's goblin guard 'Curiously, there are also two sets of these available (by this I mean different sculpts) and in my opinion the second is far superior. They were slotta based (which is ok with me) but badly modelled (which isn't) I had some of the Knights of the Cleansing Flame that i bought on ebay as part of a lot - didn't like them and sold them on. He has a lot of old citadel figures - i remember even seeing some of the original Lothern Sea Guard - though his prices are more than i'm willing to pay since my main aim these days is to sell figures i don't want as i have all the ones i do want. You should keep on keeping an eye on ebay (just do pre-slotta or old citadel or 1980s citadel searches as not all sellers know what the figures they're selling are in detail) and also take a look at the Miniature Heroes website. Seen and/or bought all of the regiments on ebay at some point and bought some of the pre-slotta ones before that when i was at school. Most of the slotta versions were way inferior to the pre-slotta versions. The slotta Golfag's Ogres were unusual in being better than the pre-slotta version.
