C01 Fighters (1983)

  • One figure shown on the Dec 1983 flyer [7] (top row, 2nd right) is not listed anywhere else.

C01 Fighters (2nd C)

  • This catalog also showed the Viking Heroes as part of C01.
  • The one with the torch is presumed to be "Dorian Redhorn" mentioned on the CP4 insert.


Slotta Based Figures

C01 Fighters (1984-1985)

  • In Dec 1984 and Jan 1985, Citadel printed 2 mail order flyers that showed the first slotta-based fighters. [7]
  • Some of these would later appear in the Spring 1985 Journal but 14 (out of 33 shown) would not.
  • The flyer images are all sketches and of a more cartoonish appearance making identification difficult.


C01 Fighters (3rd C)

  • Numbering is LMW specific to match the catalog picture.


C01 Fighters (1986)

  • Numbering is LMW specific to match the catalog picture.
  • Several of the names and one of the figures (86-10) were used for Dungeonquest.


C01 Fighters (Unlisted)

  • There are a number of early C01 slotta-based figures that never made it into the catalogs.
  • C01 (UN-05) is a metal version of the plastic figure included in the Warlock of Firetop Mountain game and may have been released under C01 Fighter range.
