Superior Models Inc Warrior of the Red Planet

As it says on the tin....I am trying to get hold of an old 75mm Ray Lamb sculpt that I could have sworn I already had......only pic I have is a little poor I'm afraid....

If you do happen to have a copy to trade please let me know (email on the left of the blog) - if not for trade a decent pic would be great. I have a Princess of Mars figure but it isn't the one above.....haven't found a pic of it yet but I'm sure I will do if I manage to locate my Superior Models flyers hidden somewhere in the maelstrom of my hobby area.......then of course it won't be the figure I want it to be.

In case you didn't know in the 70s TSR released a set of rules for gaming warfare in Barsoom.......I do remember seeing a copy in the early 80s when I visited the Hinchliffe Models factory shop but didn't pick it up. Last copy on ebay went for about $900.......

Post script to this post (can I say that???)...............the Princess of Mars figure I have is actually FA07 Freyja, Queen of Asgard......you can almost understand my error (insert various expletives here please at your leisure). I am therefore after both of the figures at the top. Grrrrrrr.......

Also......here are a couple of pics from the Grenadier Gamma World range that were, in a previous incarnation, John Carter of Mars minis......until Grenadier realised they had to pay a licence fee........I am chasing these so please send me your spares :)
