Man these guys aren't easy to come across! All the ones that have come up on eBay I've already got.

Great chat, love the catalogue figures. I only every had one which i came accross the other day, looks to be a different one from the catalogue? does this mean there were more than 12? or am i missing something?

Anyone know his name, as i will probably stick him on ebay.

Thanks

Isn't that his name on the scroll on his tower? Looks like Thorkell, but the pic is a bit blurry. If he's not one of the main 12 he'll be from the arena playset thingy.

Yeh I think I've got that guy, or even the same guy wearing blue clothes not red. I'll have to go and check. I'm in two minds whether to sell my Hero Gladiators or keep them.

Edit: just checke and my blue guy is Strykor - similar pose.

It's a bit hard to make out on the playset picture on the previous page, but is he a repaint of one of the playset figures? Between this figure and a couple of people mentioning variant paint schemes I think there must have been a second repaint wave of these guys not covered on those catalogue pages.

Actually on second inspection my blue figure is exactly the same as the red figure above, just a different colour and different name! Every part of his sculpt is identical - weird!
