Yup, your rant is quite legitimate. Unfortunately, I'm one of those that
only have pre E40k minis and cannot help with later releases. I can only
point what are not minis from SM2, TL or previous material. I'm looking
forward to get a nice digital camera for Christmas, once and for all, but
until then I cannot send any pics. I'm also looking up for an old citadel
catalogue from 1991 but couldn't find it out, maybe it's at my parents home,
so again, nothing 'till Christmas. If I could get a nice scanner it would be
also great, since I could send many catalogue pics from old minis.
