Citadel's C17 Skeletons series was first shown in the Dragon Catalog [1] as 'C17 Skeletons' and again in the First [2] and Third Compendiums [4]. In the Second Compendium [3] it was briefly 'C17 Skeleton Warriors'. All of these sets are detailed on this page. The earliest version of C17 contained mainly Fiend Factory and Fantasy Tribe Skeletons figures. It is also likely that any of the FTS variants were used.

  • The catalogue sketches [1] are tough to reconcile with the actual figures: the above is a best guess.
  • It is likely that all of the many variants of the Fantasy Tribes Skeletons were released as C17 at the start of the 'C' Series era. Nothing new was added to the range up to this point - all older models.
  • Descriptions above are LMW specific and come from the older ranges.
