Minifigs Space Warriors Range - Central Galactic Force

 

Part 2 of this old sci fi range from April 1979, sculpted by Pete Manning. Part 1 link at the bottom. They released three forces;

Central Galactic Force

Samain Alience Force

Zarquin Alien Force

It was a very nice range although I don't know how popular it was. I certainly don't remember it from the time although I was well aware of the earlier classic SF range they released. In the US they were released in blistered sets, something we never had in the UK. Combat 3000 seemed to be the rules of choice...

Minifigs Space Warriors Range - The Zarquin Alien Force

Edit 8th September 2025 - Combat 3000 details added at the bottom. Thanks to Pete Brown!

This sci fi range was released in April 1979 and sculpted by Pete Manning. I'm just popping this one part on for now, will get the rest another time. I'm sure I read something about a ruleset in the works at the time but I could be wrong. A nice insectoid race although the minis had a tendency to snap at the thorax/waist section. I was sorting a set out for a friend so thought it was worth posting.

SW23 Trooper with Heavy Lazer Advancing

SW24 Trooper with Axe and Radiation Shield

SW25 Trooper with Heavy Anti-Matter Grenade Projector

SW26 Zarquin Captain

SW27 Trooper in space with Heavy Lazer and Jet Pack

SW28 Robot

It was a nice little range of slightly different aliens for the time. Dave at Caliver Books is bringing them all back to life of course... link below (can't link direct for some reason, it never seems to work) - follow the left side all the way down to Classic Fantasy & Sci Fi Ranges. Tell him I sent you of course!

Pete Brown (he of The Mouldmaker and The Assault Group) remembered the name being used in the old Combat 3000 ruleset. I dug my copy out and, lo and behold, they are there! Further Combat 3000 posts linked below as well.
