Shortly after the publication of Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader, GW produced the Book of the Astronomican which contained an army list for Eldar Pirates/Mercenaries. The 1987 Space Elf range included Command squads, field artillery and Dreadnoughts or Eldar robots.

In 1991, the Eldar became a unique race, steeped in back story, based in part around the designs of Jes Goodwin. The formal structure of a force led by Psykers and comprising of dedicated single-faceted troops supported by Guardian militia has remained unchanged. The figures themselves formalised a design ethic of organic ovoid shapes and elegant weaponry which implied speed, poise and balance.

Hobbyists commonly customise, convert or even sculpt entire figures. Some of these are produced in limited numbers in violation of Intellectual Property rights in resin or metal, and make their way onto the open market, others are produced by modellers purely as part of the hobby, some are sculpted by sculptors as side-projects or practice sculpts. The list below includes all the custom cast Eldar figures I know to have been available from counterfeiters, created by hobbyists or as one-off sculpts by professional sculptors. However I am sure there are others. If you know of any, please let us know through the CCM group.
