This guy is a 1988 or 1989 (wish I had inked the back but didn’t notice it was hard to read) Alan Perry sculpt for the 4205 Chaos Squats range (he’s 420502). His right arm is plastic.

This guy was part of the RT402 Space Elf Command range and went by Menhe Worldsong. He’s a 1987 Jes Goodwin sculpt.
In the later catalogues he’s part number 071519/29.
Another copy, with the dragon standard (071519/26):
One of the optional standards – the angel standard (071519/39):
This guy is a 1987 sculpt by Michael or Alan Perry for the Rogue Trader era of Warhammer 40K. He’s one of the Space Dwarfs / Squats.
Like the rest of the RT301 Space Dwarf range, he has a gun related name – Mauser was/is a German arms manufacturer.
This guy is credited to Michael and Alan Perry. He’s a 1987 sculpt for Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader.
This guy was a 1987 sculpt for the Rogue Trader edition of Warhammer 40K. He’s credited to Michael and Alan Perry.
His name seems to be a reference to Steyr Arms, an Austrian arms manufacturer.
Here’s a list of the 2nd. Edition Warhammer 40K (mostly metal) miniatures I have and am still looking for. This page is a work in progress but I’m going to try to keep it updated so I don’t double up.
Page legend/key – explains what the icons mean
White Dwarf 166 (October 1993) announced the release of the 2nd. Edition of Warhammer 40K. The previous issue stated that the game was over two years in the making. Will Power, Cool and Intelligence were dropped as stats and break tests were based on Leadership, in-line with Warhammer. Reserve move was taken out and replaced with a run move, again the same as Warhammer. As per the running changes made to Rogue Trader, Space Marines moved from T3 to T4, had their save boosted to 3+, were now able to shrug off their first Break test failure and could Rapid Fire!
The in-box Space Marines were designed by Jes Goodwin and the Gretchin/Orks by Kev Adams (per WD163).

As per the lore the rankings go Acolytum, Lexicanum, Codicier then Epistolary. Oh, and then Chief Librarian.
White Dwarf #214 (October 1997) saw the release of the Heavy Bolter wielding scout and the sniper rifle pair, following the five-man box set:
The 1993 catalogue showing these guys states that the miniatures on that page were designed by Jes Goodwin and Normal Swales. Not sure whether it was a joint effort or whether they each designed separate items on the page
These guys were announced in White Dwarf 168 (December 1993), and were designed by Jes Goodwin, and were released as an Ultramarines Assault Squad boxed set.
In White Dwarf 167 (November 1993) the box set of these guys is described as being designed by Jes Goodwin and Norman Swales.
Designed by Jes Goodwin. Many of these were 1992 or earlier so technically RT but I think they’re more reminiscent of the aesthetic of 2nd. Ed. than RT so I put them here. The pre-MKVI suits are above.
So he’s not metal but he’s a classic regardless.
These are the sculpts specific to the Dark Angels in 2nd. Ed. 40K.

Here’s a list of the Rogue Trader/40K metal miniatures I have and am still looking for. This page is a work in progress but I’m going to try to keep it updated so I don’t double up.
Plain text entries are models I don’t have.
Entries with hyperlinks are models I have and have photos of.
Hyperlinks in bold black font are models I have painted.
The sculpting credits are partially done on this page – I haven’t added the tags to all of the entries yet.
If a mini doesn’t have the date on their tab I’m marking it as Year Unknown… obviously there’s limitations to what year they could have been sculpted as they had to be listed in the catalogues at some point, but it got too messy having a “1988 or before” tag etc. so it’s just down as Unknown for those models.
There is also now a tag for minis which have a 360deg video of them:
I have also found some painted examples in various White Dwarf issues… I have started tagging those too:
These guys were the first proper release of Space Marines, following the LE2 limited edition release. The eight of them were seen in the August 1986 Citadel Miniatures Mail Order Sheet. The November 1986 White Dwarf (#83) shows one in black and white and references Naismith’s “excellent hard line work” on the C100 range:
They have 1985 on the tab as the sculpt date.
Not 100% on the date JD10/JD11 was released but I’m leaving it here.
Bob Naismith’s LE2!
Where it all began! Or close to it, as there’s the C100 guys and LE2 who came out prior to Rogue Trader being a thing.
Of note – in the Dec 1987 White Dwarf (#96) it was stated that Citadel were selling over a million miniatures a month, prior to 40K taking off. Could explain why there are still so many of the RT miniatures floating around…

Shown in WD99 as well as elsewhere.
Ward, West, Gorshin, Romero, Kitt, Hamilton, Repp, Blake, Craig, Newmar, Napier, Basehart, Harris, Reeves, Crabb, Dozier and Wounded Marine are credited to either Aly Morrison or Mark Copplestone; there’s no indicator who did which.
Brother Craven’s tab says 1987 on the back, but I have yet to find a copy of him. This wasn’t in the RT3 list but I’m putting it here for lack of anywhere else to put it.
Jes Goodwin’s Armour Variants with extras from the Citadel Design Team:
Mark Copplestone:
These guys were in the White Dwarf magazine in July 1988. Mark Copplestone sculpts.
Designed by Mark Copplestone.

Medics!
These guys were shown in the June 1988 White Dwarf magazine, and not all are Space Marines – but I have only included Space Marine medics here. The numbers are from the Jun 1988 flyer.
Design credit for the Chaplains goes to Mark Copplestone. They were shown in 1988.
RTB09 Terminator Squad was designed by Jes Goodwin. This consisted of 2 of Marine 1, 2 of Marine 2, 2 of Marine 3, a Librarian and a Captain.
These guys were supposedly equipped with Mk 7 power armour, known as Armorum Impetor or Eagle Armour.
Dreads, bikes and tanks!
Rhino:
Land Raider:
Unreleased models.
This had a Space Marine Land Speeder, a Squat Mole Mortar and an Imperial Army Tarantula in it.

RT2 Flyer’s RT501 Army list:
One of the 1989 Trade catalogues has some other listings under 072019:
Sculpted by Mark Copplestone.
These guys were hard to find – the 1989 Autumn trade catalogue has them, and the Penitent is also shown with credit in a ’89 flyer.
These guys were credited to the “Citadel Design Team”, so someone who had left Citadel by that point. I need to check that they’re existing sculpts with their arms cut off and credit them appropriately.
Two of the 4006 Medics are from the Guard;
These are the robots from the Rogue Trader era. They’re shown in White Dwarf #104 as part of a Chapter Approved article.
Inquisitors.
Assassins!
The Adventurers. Bob Naismith credits as per this interview.
The lineup is credited to Trish Carden (Morrison), Aly Morrison, Bob Naismith and Mark Copplestone.
Trish’s credits are as per a conversation with her in Jan 2025.
These are 1987 Bob Olley sculpts.
Iron Claw Jump troops:
The RT7 Mercenaries below were designed by Bob Naismith along with Michael and Alan Perry. I don’t know who did which, though this interview does help with Bob Naismith’s contributions.
The C100 Chainsaw Warriors were done by Bob Naismith. One was seen in WD92:
Tzeentch:
Nurgle:
Khorne:
Slaanesh:

These guys were credited to Michael and Alan Perry. Presumable Captain Kirk, Sergeant Bilko… and who else?

These two were Michael Perry sculpts.
This was a 1991/1992 sculpt by Jes Goodwin.
4406 Orks
OK, so they aren’t from 40K but they’re of that era and I’m using them in 40K, so they’re going here.
None of these yet, but the accordions need at least two entries so here it is… check out the Timescape accordion box.
This was the plastic 2nd. Ed. bike box! The bike was sculpted by Norman Swales and the Marine by Jes Goodwin as per the 1998 catalogue page.
The 3-bike squad was announced in the September 1996 White Dwarf; I’m still trying to nail down the date of the solo bike box and whether this is the later release with the updated Marine or the earlier one. Based on the front cover being art rather than a model picture and the part number I’m suspecting later, but we will see.
More pics to come once I actually unbox it.
