Where pictures of the actual figures were not available at the time of putting this page together, the pictures from the Games Workshop Specialist Games 2005 Catalogue were used, until such time as pictures of the actual figures could be found. No breach of Games Workshop copyright intended.

1999-2005 Hired Guns and Characters

Limited Editions

Between 1999 and 2005, the Black Library, the publishing division of Games Workshop released a series of 14 limited edition models depicting characters from Warhammer Monthly and their novels. Each model was sold with a numbered certificate of authenticity.


Bounty Hunters

Eldar

When Fanatic/Specialist Games still supported the peripheral games put out by GW, the releases often tended to be bizarre. The Necromunda special character of Yrthrian Mardawn, a rogue Farseer and his Fire Dragon bodyguard, did not seem to fit the idea of Eldar or the concept of Necromunda. The figures were discontinued in 2004 in the UK, but were still available in the US in 2007.

Orlocks

Goliaths

Ash Waste

Scavvies

Ratskins

Redemptionists

Van Saar

Enforcers

Arbites

These figures were originally released in the early 1990’s as Forces of the Imperium. Three figures appeared in the 1991 Blue Catalogue (power maul, bolter 1 and shotgun 1) with the other four figures appearing in the 1993 Black Catalogue. They then seemed to disappear from the catalogues (although they were available from mail order) until 2004 when they appeared as part of the Necromunda listings.

Chaos Cultists

These figures appeared in the 40K Chaos Marine listings in the 1999 Citadel Miniatures Annual. They later appeared in Gang War as a Necromunda gang.
