  • Ships Officer aka Astronaut – Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader

    This metal miniature is from Warhammer 40K’s first edition (Rogue Trader) and is in the catalogues as “Ship’s Officer”, though he has “Astronaut” on the tab. I think it says GW 88 on the base.

    He was sculpted by Trish Carden (Morrison), as per a conversation with her in Jan 2025.

    You can see him in White Dwarf #99:

  • Metal Rogue Trader Imperial Land Speeder Warhammer 40K

    This Land Speeder was seen in the RTB3 Devastators box set as well as the RT503 Imperial Army set – which had Imperial Army pilots and different weapons to the Space Marine one.

    The 1991 catalogue credits it to Michael Perry, though the earlier RT stuff credits it to both Perry twins.

    1d4chan seem to have christened this guy Johnny… back in the day he was known as Brother Craig.

    This was part of the RTB3 Devastators box set and also sold separately. Designed by Michael and Alan Perry.

  • Imperial Guard Tarantula and Operator Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader

    This is the Imperial Army Tarantula and operator, featured in the RTB3 Devastator set as well as being sold separately. The 1991 catalogue credits the entire page to Michael and Alan Perry with Norman Swales, and I’m not sure which was responsible for this particular sculpt yet.

  • Wounded Space Marine Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader Metal

    This guy is different to the Casualty, who was sculpted by Bob Naismith. I can’t find who sculpted this guy – he’s shown in the RT3 flyer with no credit.

  • Ventolin Pirate – Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader Metal

    This guy was shown on the RT601 sheet as Ventolin Pirate.

  • Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader Female Warrior Gabs

    Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader Female Warrior Gabs

    This lass went by Female Warrior Gabs and has 1987 on the tab. She’s part of the RT601 Adventurers range.

    I can’t tell who sculpted what in the RT601 range – the list of people who sculpted things on that page is Trish and Aly Morrison, Bob Naismith, Mark Copplestone and Jes Goodwin.

    She can be seen in White Dwarf #99:

  • Metal Space Marine Rogue Trader Captain Dozier

    No tab on this guy, unfortunately! He goes by Bionic Eye and Chainsword, part number 070119/35, in the 1991 catalogue. Thanks for sending him to me, Sebastian!

    He seems to be named after William Dozier who played the Narrator of (and who was the executive producer of!) the 1960s Batman TV show.
