Asgard Miniatures Robin Hood and Maid Marian

I was looking for some wargaming minis for a friend who likes Robin Hood and happened to come across these 2 larger scale beauties on eBay... they weren't described as Asgard but they looked very old school and not 'giftware'. They have since been confirmed as Stan Pockron sculpts by Paul Sulley... Asgard being founded by Bryan Ansell, Steven Fitzwater and Paul back in 1976 until going out of business early to mid 1980's. A number of the sculpts are now produced by both The Viking Forge in America and Alternative Armies in the UK.

Most Asgard Miniatures are pictured on the Lost Minis WIKI.

I first came across them in this old Model Soldier Magazine for August 1978... in fact, my good friend Tony Yates just told me that the skeleton picture was his first published artwork! History in the making.

And on to the figures...

Short post.... Asgard Miniatures X2 - 3 Armed Robot.........

Can't remember where I scanned this advert from but McEwan miniatures imported Asgard into the States back in the day.....haven't seen this mini advertised in the UK before......my example is pictured on an earlier post....(minus the top piece) here. Somewhere I have some more but they are well hidden so I have no idea if I have all of the top bit......grrrrrrrr. Apparently this is a conversion of a Cyborg sculpted by Stan Pochron who came over from the States working with Bryan Ansell all those years ago. More info if I find any!

Edit; just been through my files and it was from September 1978. Jeez, I was approaching my 17th birthday.....
