Who the h*** is Luthor the Hunchback???

Hey all!

By chance I came about this website, and according to the people behind it there is a dramatis personae named "luthor the hunchback" and there even is (according to them) a miniature released? But I can't find the rules for him and furthermore the miniature on the picture says "zombie" on the base? The mystery unfolds...

Oh thanks for the info, you are a true mordheim-pedia I just scrolled through my mordheim rulebook but couldn't find the picture, maybe because I have the download copy! I found the picture of the mordheim jester though, which I think is pretty cool that they have been inspired by the art!
Anyway I'm gonna stop rambling and thanks for the info

If you have or can get the 2004-5 Catalog, there's a photo of Luthor on page 1022. Back then he went for $3.75.

Broken1 speaks the truth.

I never doubted the word of Broken1, I just couldn't find the picture! But thanks for the post of the picture! He is actually a pretty cool mini!

I never assumed you did.

I always assumed they were using Luthor as a Dreg iin that picture, rather than a Zombie. He's too cool a model to just be a walking dead'un!

I would think they are!

Like some people have said 'Luthor' was originally made for Warhammer Quest.

He was included in the box-set expansion 'catacombs of terror' out in 1995.
Info

From what I've seen minis from those expansions eventually found their way into mail-order catalogues, unfortunetly
theyre very hard to get hold of now. Another popular favourite is the goblin jester from 'lair of the orc lord'.

They really need to re-release a lot of the old collectors and rogue trader era models. I would love to get my grubby paws on a Zoat or some of these warhammer quest models.

I was hoping after the space hulk re-make Warhammer Quest might get another look!

Zoats look like they are making a come-back though! I expect to see a FInecast Zoat in the next month or two.

I wouldn't hold your breath.
They may get a release via Warhammer forge like the Chaos Dwarves though

now I want to have a closer look on this model. anyone know where he came from?

I'm guessing he's 'just' an awesome militia conversion. But how did they do that head&helmet?

I too would think he is the result of a night of fun with the Mordheim and Mercenaries (now Militia) sprues (especially the coat, legs and the book are clear signs of those, I would say - and could that be a wolf cloak from the Middenheimer sprue on his back?) and Green Stuff - while the face and helmet may well exist on some obscure sprue, they look 'pimped' to me.

But I dare say he goes well with your avatar!
