This metal Rogue Trader Chaos Renegade miniature was shown as “Chainsword” in the 1991 Blue catalogue, and was part number 070315/12. It was sculpted by either Michael Perry or Kev Adams. I can’t make out the date on the back of the tab, unfortunately. Probably 1988!
He can be seen in White Dwarf #104:
This metal Rogue Trader Techmarine on Jet Bike was shown in 1988 as 410507 (seventh sculpt shown in the Techmarines 4105 set) and is credited to either Mark Copplestone or Alan Perry.
There was an alternate sculpt available which was the upper torso holding a wrench, rather than the bolt pistol.
The jet bike is the generic bike available to Space Marines and the Imperial Army from that period; you can see it in White Dwarf #135 with an Imperial Army fellow on-board:
This metal Rogue Trader Imperial Army or Imperial Guard Lieutenant has no date, unfortunately. White Dwarf #110 gives his scupltor as Mark Copplestone.
This metal Warhammer Fantasy Battle Chaos Familiar was called Daemonet 1.
This metal Rogue Trader-era Space Marine Scout carried a Shuriken catapult (rather unusually, by modern standards) and was sculpted by Mark Copplestone. He’s seen in the 1991 Blue catalogue as part number 070295/4.
No year on the tab, unfortunately! He can be seen in White Dwarf #113:
This metal Rogue Trader-era Imperial Army miniature was called Assault Trooper Hardy. The flyer he’s shown on lists minatures made by Michael and Alan Perry and Aly Morrison, and I don’t know which did this one.
Nothing on his tabs, unfortunately!
This metal Rogue Trader Space Marine Scout model is seen in White Dwarf #107 and is credited to Bob Naismith. It doesn’t seem to appear in any of the other catalogues.
Unfortunately, this guy has nothing on the tab so there’s no sculpt date to go by other than sometime prior to WD107.
This metal miniature is one of the Rogue Trader Mercenaries. I swear the flyer name is Plunderino Pete. He’s a Bob Naismith sculpt.
He can be found in White Dwarf #95:
This metal Rogue Trader era Mercenary miniature went by “Irn-Bonce The Squat”. He was also seen in the first Rogue Trader released models as “Space Dwarf”. I need to double check the date on the tab as I can’t make it out in the pic.
He can be seen in White Dwarf #95:
This Rogue Trader Squat miniature goes by the name “Shorty” and is from the Mercenaries range. I can’t find who sculpted him.
He can be seen in White Dwarf #95:
