Question about Heritage USA Dungeon Dweller miniatures

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.frp.dnd,rec.games.miniatures.misc (More info?)

Hi! I picked up a couple of unopened boxes of lead miniatures at a
garage sale a few years ago and just tripped across them again while
cleaning out the closet. I was wondering if anyone could point me at
any resources that would show if they are collectable as I'd like to
eventually sell them to someone who would find them useful instead of
keeping them stashed on a shelf collecting dust.

Here is the information about the miniatures.

Both are Heritage USA Dungeon Dwellers Metal Figure sets:

#3511 Magic Users and Clerics

Wizard with Spellbook
Wizard with Imp Familiar
Old Wizard
Sorceress with Layered Robes
Sorceress with Birds-head staff
Cleric with Holy Symbol
Armored Cleric
Wandering Cleric with Holy Book
Cloaked Priestess
Monk
Druid

#3512 Fighting Adventurers

Knight with Mace
Knight with Sword
Paladin
Bard
Henchman
Thief
Female Thief
Female Fighter
Elven Fighter
Halfling Archer
Dwarf

Thanks for any information you can provide!

Denise

Best way is to advertise on rpg web sites.
Either that or advertise on ebay and hope, but the sites trick will
probably see them go to a better home IMO

Agreed.
Personally I like Heritage models alot -- they were among the very first
I bought long ago. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a lot of
interest in them anymore. The detail is not up to modern standards.
But they have more character than most modern ranges, IMO. I suppose
there are others who will seek them for nostalgia. So you'll likely
find a buyer who appreciates them but I wouldn't hold out much hope of
making a big profit.

In another 10-20 years they will be very rare, I think, since most
younger miniatures collectors will not have even heard of them.

Actually the old Heritage box sets are worth a decent amount on eBay. If these
sets are complete, unpainted, contain the insert (if any) and the boxes are in
fine conditon then you'll probably be pretty pleased with what you will get for
them on eBay.
