Chainsaw Warrior with Chainsaw and Blaster
This guy was released in 1987 with the board game of the same name, and was apparently tied into Warhammer 40K in the 1988 Rogue Trader Part One flyer. You got three for £1.95 – the Chainsaw Warrior with Reaper (heavy weapon), Chainsaw Warrior with Missile Launcher and the guy pictured above – the Chainsaw Warrior with Chainsaw and Blaster.
He can be seen in White Dwarf #92:
Screenshot He’s a Bob Naismith sculpt. No year on the back of his tab, but his companion minis have 1987 so I’m putting that down as the best guess.
