DElves dark Riders

Post by kturock »

I just got these models off ebay.. supposedly they're GW DElf Dark Riders. No that I got them, I'm not sure.

Anyone recognise them? These are the pics from the 2 auctions. They almost look like from a starter box set. It's hard to tell if the riders were glued to the horses or if they were molded. There appears to be mold lines on the horses; left/right sides; but not the riders.

I don't think they're official Dark Riders.
As far as I know, the latest Dark Riders are metal sculpts on plastic horses, the horses being of an older mold than those (so those aren't an older model of riders either, I don't think).
They've been around for years and are still the ones GW displays on their site to this day, go there and see the differences.

If I had to wager: Wood Elf Glade Rider horses (and probably legs as well), and randomised Dark Elf Warrior bits to form mix and match riders.
