Oldest Figure I Still Have

   This is him, a halfling from the old Grenadier Miniatures box set 2002 Halflings.

   I got the boxed set for Christmas when I was in fourth grade (I think - maybe fifth). That was 1981.  I would have been nine years old. He was painted with Testors Model Enamels and a Q-tip for a brush.

The old box


For almost 35 years old, that enamel really did hold up pretty well.

What a little treasure!

I have no idea what became of the others over the decades. It is possible they are still somewhere in my momma's old house, which now belongs to my sister.
