Revision as of 23:52, 24 September 2011

This guide owes a lot to the excellent Squat Checklist prepared by Steve Painter. Thanks Steve.

Originally known as Space Dwarfs, this range was short lived one. The 1991 Blue Catalogue was the last listing - by the time the 1995/6 catalogue was issued, the range had disappeared entirely.

In presenting the guide, so far as possible, the figures are shown in chronological order of release. Where a figure was included in the 1991 Blue catalogue, the reference is shown with the figure.

First Release

A space dwarf was included in the first 40K releases, as shown in the May 1987 flyer. The figure then appeared in the Rogue Trader Part One Flyer as part of the Mercenaries range and in the 1988 Cataogue (still as a mercenary).

Rogue Trader RT301 Space Dwarfs

This range first appeared in the Thank You Mr President Flyer in September 1987 and then shortly thereafter in the Book of the Astronomican, White Dwarf 94 and the Rogue Trader Part One Flyer. Although the full range still appeared in the 1989 Catalogue, by the time the 1991 Blue Catalogue was issued, only 8 remained.

It should be noted that Roth Bergmann, Owen Garand and Gatt Gunslinger were originally issued with separate back packs. By 1991, Owen Garand and Gatt Gunslinger had been redesigned to have backpacks integral to the figure.

It should also ne noted that Nambu Arisaka was named as Nambu Kalashnikov initially but the name changed within a month.
