I'm gonna start playing a campaign of Mordheim with some friends and I only need to print off a couple of old Warhammer Fantasy Orc archers and I really don't feel like spending a fortune on a huge box of them. I'm not even sure that those old Orc Archers I'm thinking of are even being sold anywhere (I'm talking about the old fantasy stuff and not the new Age of Sigmar models).

idk about bootlegs, but If you're just looking for some models that hew to more of the classic Warhammer feel (there's just something so wonderful about those old monopose pewters from the late 90s/early 00s, I totally get it) I've had a lot of good results from searching "oldhammer" on cults3d.

Otherwise, there are some creators on MMF who have sculpts that are definitely in that wheelhouse:

https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-orc-archers-highlands-miniatures-337716 (I'm pretty sure these draw heavy inspiration from the old monopose orc archers from the 6th ed starter set)

Good luck with your Mordheim campaign!

I get the arguments about older models being technically inferior to a lot of newer work which uses it as inspiration, and generally I agree! But I still make it a habit to snap up scans of decades OOP pewters whenever I can find them. Maybe it's just nostalgia clouding my better judgement, but printing and painting those models up feels to me like a kind of personal archival project. I spent years as a kid with limited allowance money staring at those things in the catalog, or from the other side of a table as they massacred my very poorly optimized Dark Elves army, and by god now that I can finally get ahold them I'm sure as hell going to print out a few.

My personal holy grail is finding some scans of the old Dogs of War range, but so far mostly no luck apart from some duelists.

Unchained Games on MMF has a ton of weird looking fantasy coins for sale that could fit the bill!
