Someone out there must have a picture or even actual figures.
Please I need to see these with my own eyes.

Thank you Orcs.

I can't remember seeing such a painted display on Dave's trade stand at a (1997? iirc) trade stand at the old Battleground show.

Anyway, you've painted a clean mental image for me and I am now in the know.

I was looking for the photo request page the other week. Photos of the newish T72 models alongside the Chieftains and T64s. I'd love some of the T72s, but fear they might be as massive as the T62 models so am reluctant to make a blind purchase.

I couldn't get the penis men out of my mind. I just had to erect them. Sorry, ressurect them. Bit of a fluff(er) moment there.

Wonder if there was any posed standing to attention, or were they all shooting?

"Pics or it didn't happen" I believe is what the yoof of today might comment on the Instabook or Facegram.

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

I can take or leave the Penismen. However, I did  enjoy  Pendraken's original B movie style Amazons

Google AI tells me the 'penis men' were actually sculpts based upon the Warhammer Fantasy range of Fimir. That the Pendraken sculpts had the humanoid creature's tails protruding from between their legs and so resembling penises.

I always thought the Fimir were a dodgy lot. Anyone else read the lore about the species in the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay rules from back in the 1980s? Talk about violent procreation. I doubt you'd get away with such a horrendous and violent act nowadays.

I would really like to see the Not-Fim produced. I could finally finish my Warmaster Albion Army as intended with Not-Fim instead of Ogre Minis.

There were a number of suggested names for them though I don't recall penismen as one of them!

Fake news from the AI there I'm afraid, it's merging two bits of information. The phallic warriors were done back in the 90s and haven't been on sale in about 20 years.  We did buy a handful of not-Fimir type sculpts around 2012 I think, which have been stuck in my pending pile ever since.  They will become Balori and should be released early next year.
