Minifigs produced this Mythical Earth range back in 1973. One of the earliest commercially produced fantasy miniature ranges the Mythical Earth range was created following contact with one of their regular customers. He was suffering from multiple sclerosis and wished to see his favourite fictional characters (from Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings) in miniatures before he died. The descriptions were provided by the customer and they sculpted and cast the range. [2]
Note: no minis were produced for product codes ME61 - ME99.
