All,

I've been collecting TSR produced D&D products for quite some time, and in all these years, I've never come across (or met anybody who has either) a few of the TSR AD&D miniature blister packs that were supposedly produced and officially released. Can anybody verify that these blister packs were sold at retail? -

TSR AD&D Miniature Blister Pack: Rangers (Product #5707)
TSR AD&D Miniature Blister Pack: Half-Elves (Product #5711)
TSR AD&D Miniature Blister Pack: Fighters (Product #5712)

Thanks!

Found this:
AD&D Blister Packs (TSR - Lost Minis Wiki)#5707
Not much to go on though.

Thanks MadCat

.

The 2nd link you posted was actually a thread that I started - so I now feel like I've come full circle

. I've seen some images posted on Lost Minis Wiki, DnDLead, and Stuff of Legends - but I've never seen an image of the blister pack itself. TSR planned so many miniature releases that they never got around to, I'm beginning to wonder if the miniatures I mentioned earlier in this thread were among them.

they were planning more releases, but the axe came down on many employees, and that miniatures dept with it.
