Up until 1983 Grenadier's base markings varied. Around 1983 they adopted codes clearly marked on the base of each figure. These were not the product codes seen in catalogs or on boxes and blister packs. The codes consisted of an alphabetic prefix followed by a number. See: examples.
Prefix Key
Prefix Key
- General Purpose
- AAdventurers - used for humans & anything not 'M' or 'S'. The A probably stood for adventurers.
- MMonsters - used for any sort of monster, orcs, goblins, etc. The M probably stands for monsters.
- SSkeletons - used for undead creatures. The S probably stands for skeletons.
- Range Codes
- CA The Call of Cthulhu range, human figures.
- CH The Chill Nightmares boxed set.
- CM The Call of Cthulhu range, non-human figures.
