Grant County, WA – Collectors and hobbyists across central Washington are being asked to stay alert after a burglary involving a large quantity of rare Warhammer miniatures was reported in Cascade Valley on Tuesday, December 31.
According to the Grant County Sheriff’s Office, investigators with the Crime Reduction Team are looking into the burglary of storage units in the Cascade Valley area, where 60 to 80 boxes of collectible Warhammer miniatures were stolen. Authorities say the items are considered unique and could be difficult to resell without drawing attention.
The stolen miniatures are described as plastic figurines, roughly five inches tall, commonly used in tabletop gaming. Deputies released an example image showing a Warhammer figure similar to those taken, emphasizing that the stolen items may appear new, boxed, or part of a large collection.
The burglary was reported on December 31, and investigators believe the quantity and niche nature of the items could lead to tips from the public, especially within collector, gaming, or resale communities.
The sheriff’s office is urging anyone who may have seen suspicious activity around storage facilities in Cascade Valley, Ephrata, or nearby areas — or anyone who knows of a person who recently came into possession of a large number of Warhammer miniatures — to contact authorities.
Tips can be reported to the Grant County Sheriff’s Office Crime Reduction Team at 509-762-1160. Information can also be emailed to gcso-crimereductionteam@grantcountywa.gov. Case number: 25GS15944.
Residents are reminded not to confront suspected individuals directly and to report information to law enforcement.
