OK, think I know these two - they are NOT Superior ships, but some from
a
boxed set produced by GRENADIER a long while ago (late 70s?); the box
was a
mix of a dozen or so very different ship types, with no actual names or
descriptions supplied (I have one set, including the original box). I
guess
they were intended as a general ship mix for roleplayers (eg Traveller)
for
occasional encounters, rather than to give battle fleets for miniatures
combat. If I'm right on the ID, the big one is about 70mm-ish in length
with a circular front section and two small "weapon/sensor" pylons,
while
the "round" one (about 35-40mm?) looks like it is made from a coil of
wire... ?
Looks like you've got a mixed bag here, but they're all classics of
starship miniatures gaming!! Got any Eisenwerk or Valiant ones in
there??

Could be one of the Superior starbase/fortresses? How big is the model?
