Replica of Grenadier Explorers 5001-J (Alternate) Miniature

thingiverse

This is a replica of the classic figure from the Grenadier box Explorers number 5001, included as an alternate of figure J, "Bard" ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4773368 ) in some sets. ( see http://www.dndlead.com/grenadier/ADandD/5001.jpg and http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/images/4/4c/G-albs-5001x.jpg ) Scan made using https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1762299 Generally called "Fighter w/Sword," but I believe that is incorrect, since the index card for sets that included this figure do not list "Charging Warrior" (figure G, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4787240 ), but still list "Bard" even though there is no Bard figure in the set. Perhaps the design eventually used for figure J was not yet ready, so this one was thrown in as a temporary placeholder. It seems that there are 2 versions of this figure, one with a full visor and one with a partial visor. This one seems to be the partial visor version, which I believe is a bit more common. Both were also included with various sets of 2005 Fighting Men.
