First of all, many thanks to Alan E, William, Sauron and Aaron (and the
ones whose mail I haven't received yet) for identifying my unknown
Dreadnoughts & Robots. This weekend, I met someone who playes Epic with
Space Marine armies, and he had some old figures to trade. I could trade
them for cards of some trading card games (strange trade huh ?) and I
received the following (unpainted) figures :

Plastic :
10 Bone Coloured Eldar Dreadnoughts
about 20 Bone Coloured Eldar Guardians (not armed with Shuriken Catapults;
Lasguns maybe ?; however there were three with a missile launcher like the
marines ?); they are a bit smaller than the grey plastic ones...
lots and lots of Dark Green Eldar Guardians (even smaller than the bone
coloured ones...)
20 Dark Green triangular tanks (he told me they were old style Falcon Grav
Tanks)

Metal :
6 'Eggs on Legs' : Basically an egg with legs and a gun on each side of the
egg; I believe I spot an Eldar pilot in the egg...
1 25mm high figure of an Eldar with a cape and a 30 mm spear (I think it's
an Avatar)
1 50mm huge gun, pointing in the air; you can find a picture of it in CJ
20, p.34 on the right; I believe it is a Goliath Cannon
2 35mm three-barreled FlakVierling (FlakDrieling ?) anti-aircraft gun; I
think they're Thunderfire Cannons
1 gigantic tank (7 cm long, 3 cm wide, 35 mm high) with a huge gun and a
turret and... (too difficult to describe; luckily, there's a picture of it
in CJ 20, p.34 on the left); I believe it's a Cyclops...
1 big tank (4 cm long, 3 cm wide, 4 cm high). It has a big gun at the front
and an turret on top. There are 3 2-barreled gun mounts on each side and a
huge door at the back. On the front is the Imperial Eagle, and there is a
small castle tower behind the turret on top of it (it even has battlements
!); I don't think it is a Colossus (because of the Imperial Eagle) and
there was no Gyrocopter with it (as described in CJ 20).

Many thanks in advance,

Carl Billen
