In 1993 Ral Partha made a Dragonstrike boxed set based on the video. There's a set on Ebay right now, check here. Those minis are better, but the only monster included is the dragon (not the one in the video).

You should check out this minis site. Checking out Ral Partha's 1993 catalogue quickly found me the red death knight figures with the squarish bases called a Deathmaster (01-604, next to the Ogre Miniatures ad). The video red dragon appears to be the Evil Dragon figure (02-955, next to the Rune Quest stuff). You might want to check out the Scorpionman in the Rune Quest stuff as well (18-010). The bugbears you mentioned appear to come from the Basic Dungeons and Dragons Monsters Box (10-512). The blue troll appears to be the Troll from the AD&D Monsters (11-408). The blue gargoyles may be the Gargoyles (11-433). It looks like the red Tereptus figure is the high-level Magic User (01-317). The stone giant is the two-part Stone Giant without his axe (11-403). Try these on ebay and I'm pretty sure you'll be able to locate what you want.

cool thanks i appreciate it

i bookmarked that site ral partha was always my favorite manufacturer they dont make em like that anymore

That video is mor fun than Mystery Science Theater.

Upon reading an article about Dragon Strike, I had the good forturne? to come upon this gem. I humbly present to you the wonders of Wild Space in all of it's HyperReality glory well, the trailer, anyway. Because one just wasn't enough.

Oooh dear god that's terrible!!!

Ypou clicked this?
That's like opening a file attached to a mail from a dubious Amazon seller you can't seem to remember buying anything from and who's particularly bad at grammar and spelling.

apart from the special trailer... is there a game called Wild Space? Never heard about it. Maybe it has some cool minis too?

Those HyperReality videos are the gaming equivalent of Rick-rolling.

I don't think a game was ever created called Wild Space. There was Spelljammer, but that was an RPG. I was lucky enough to play on the squidship for a demo at GenCon. Awesome model.

As a boardgame, get the story here.
