Nerd, father, husband. Fascinated by pieces of nerd history. I love sharing and discussing old GW stuff, retrogaming, comics, etc.—basically, anything that makes me feel nostalgic.

Those classic metal Storm Troopers were elite in every sense — the models, the lore, the paint jobs. A whole generation’s “proper Guard.”

The Siege of Erengrad — Europe’s First Global Campaign

Before the internet, before online leaderboards — we had The Siege of Erengrad.
Players across Europe sent results by mail.
Chaos vs Kislev, store by store. That was community.

Into the Dungeon of Doom!

September ’94 saw Talisman: Dungeon of Doom unleashed! Jervis Johnson expanded the realms with perilous new boards, heroes like the Dragon Rider and Necromancer, and that iconic cover art of battle in the dark.

How gloriously ’90s can a battle scene get? Bright carapaced Tyranids swarming forward while Dire Avengers, Guardians, and that heroic Exarch carve a path toward the Hive Tyrant. Even the jungle terrain screams studio classic!

Dragon Ogres Awaken!

The mighty Dragon Ogres — ancient, storm-born terrors of Chaos! These 1994 sculpts still radiate raw Oldhammer power. Nothing like thunder and lightning to stir these slumbering beasts from the peaks.

Dwarfs vs the Undead – A Classic Clash!

Rank upon rank of solid Dwarfen steel bracing against a sweeping tide of skeletons, wights, and chariots. Bright ’90s colours, banner icons everywhere, and that perfect rolling-hills terrain — this was Warhammer Fantasy at its cinematic best.

Since you like Necromunda... Take some ’90s Necromunda Escher’s neon hair, chainswords, duelling blades, and that iconic heavy plasma gun. Agile, deadly, and bursting with attitude — these sculpts defined the underhive’s fiercest fighters.

Dark Angels – The Lion’s Finest on Parade

A classic 1,500 pts strike force: Azrael with the Lion Helm, Brother Bethor bearing the Standard, bone-white Deathwing advancing, and that red-trimmed Dreadnought standing vigil. Jungle terrain, relic banners, and ’90s studio colours: what else?

Before Stormcasts, before endless Space Marines — there was Ricco.
The ragged hero of Remas leading a revolution with a pike and a dream.
We didn’t just collect models, we collected stories.

A full 1,500-point slice of ’90s Orky glory — Bad Moon Nobz gleaming, Evil Sunz revvin’, Snakebites on boars, and that classic Shokk Attack Gun ready to misfire hilariously. The whole horde bursting with checks, dags, and pure Waaagh! energy.

Egrimm van Horstmann – Dark Sorcerer of Chaos!

That two-headed dragon, the blazing yellow-and-black banner, the intricate armour—Egrimm was peak ’90s Chaos spectacle. A centrepiece that dominated every army shelf and every imagination.

That classic gantry-and-pipes terrain, the Orlocks circling up with shotguns and heavies ready… and then boom — the Jump Pack enforcer drops in with those blazing yellow wings. Peak Necromunda drama!

Look at those crisp parade blues — lasguns at the ready, flamer teams steady, and that mortar crew straight out of a 90s Golden Demon diorama. The final shot of the Iron Guard holding the jungle line against a Tyranid swarm still gives me chills. Pure studio magic

“Da east belongs to da Orcs. Da east is green!” Rick Priestley’s mighty Morglum Necksnapper led his Black Orcs to glory once more — a fan-favourite hero of pure Oldhammer attitude.
It's amazing that a "black" orc is still full of red tones <3

Tell me you didn’t fall in love with this unit.
Al Muktar’s riders — curved sabres, black banners, and those crisp Perry sculpts.
They looked like they galloped straight out of a legend.

Those sleek green bodygloves, the autopistols, the iconic heavy plasma gun — Van Saar always looked like they walked straight out of a tech schematic. The diorama on the gantries below captures peak Necromunda vibes: cool, efficient, and absolutely deadly.

Yesterday someone DM’d me with an interesting question: why do I share photos and content from old White Dwarfs and classic GW manuals?
Sure, it’s because I genuinely love them — but also because they’re historical records.

Ian Pickstock brings the Imperial Guard Basilisk to the tabletop. Earthshaker shells and steel discipline—the Guard never looked so mighty. Still one of the best tank kits of its time.

Gav Thorpe dives into Necromunda: Outlanders—Ratskins, Wyrds, and the zealous Redeemers bring chaos to the underhive! Still remember building those barricades from sprues and card. Real hobby grit.
