Ogre Minis from Martian Metals in 1980

I set out for Hong Kong and China today. I’m going to tour factories and get a look at some of our games in production, including a visit to the factory where our new Ogre plastic miniatures are being produced. Should be an amazing trip — I scheduled some “me” time in Hong Kong so I can go toy shopping — even if the flight there and back is certain to be miserable. I don’t fly first class when I go to Hong Kong . . . which means my seat is always horrible.

Anyway, in celebration of the trip, here’s a 1980 advertisement for an earlier version of the Ogre miniatures. The new ones look so very much better than these old metal minis.
