Hail all!
Was just curious if you all could tell me more about this miniature. A friend recently got me one and it has a green gem on the top of his staff. I wasn't sure if they released a rare one that that, or if someone cut off the ball on the top of the staff that's on the ones i've seen. Any info in regards to this would be great.
Thanks! |

Either a recast or a kitbash. If it's Elminster, I'm inclined to favor the latter. |

Pewter recasters will frequently take a lead mini, cast it in pewter and add a crystal do-dad. |

I'm far from being an expert on the minis, but I don't recall ever seeing a Ral Partha mini with a gemstone (real or fake) mounted on it.
I have noticed, however, that a lot of companies seem to think that any kind of fantasy figuirine (even miniature-sized ones) has to have some sort of crystal (often a clear one) stuck somewhere on it. I've always found that trend to be more than a bit ridiculous. |
