A reader who blogs under the handle
Legacy Magazines recently asked for some help identifying some old Superior Models minis that he was selling on ebay. Looking at his sales, I noticed he also happened to have a bunch of spaceships from
Archive Miniatures, an outfit that originated in the 1970s. I'd never heard of this line of starship minis before seeing them in his auctions, and I thought I would share them with you, with Legacy Magazines's kind permission.

Thanks, LM! I appreciate the chance to share these interesting old-school designs on my blog. If you like these, go to the Stuff of Legends website for
more photos of the Archive spaceships.

When I saw the address, I was like 'Hay, I lived in that area!', so I looked it up on Google Earth. Its literally a small brick and mortar business. It looks like a pair of thin white buildings - a simple storefront on the right, and a small garage on the left - connected by a wider building at the back.
It was a shame they where driven out of business for those Star Wars figures. I have been looking for their rulebooks online, but so far I have only scanned and made a .PDF out of my copy of Sword Lords.
Hi, I have had all but 2 of the archive ships that are on the list for about 10 years now & have UNSUCCESSFULLY been unable to figure out how to put some of the ships together the 2 especially difficult to figure out are the 2 capital ships #'s 2441 & 2 these ships came WITH NO ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS in any of them. the pictures that you point come from the following website master list of Tom's spaceship miniatures http://spaceship.brainiac.com/index.html if anyone can find any instructions e-mail me at M.Jurist@att.net
Mike, in case you're wondering, your comment was in moderation because of the age of this post. It's up now, and hopefully someone can help you out.
