I was picking up a display cupboard I’d seen in a small ad in the local supermarket from a lady locally, great unit, will give my CD’s a cool home. But while there we got onto the topic of hobbies, I mentioned what I did for a hobby (modeling & sculpting).
She then presented me with an immaculate condition D&D box set, never used with all the models for nothing! And thanked me for picking up the display unit!
Sounds cool. Is it the old classic Red Box set from the 80’s, or one of the newer crappy ones? I went on a bit of a nostalgia kick last year and started to collect all the old Basic D&D boxes (Basic, Expert, Companion, Master, etc) as my copies were a bit dogeared.
I had unpainted ones, made from a plastic that paint would barely adhere to. And they were tiny, maybe 15mm. Got the dice though, probably the most important part. The basic rules got a bit boring so I made up a load extra. I wonder if I still have the book I wrote them in somewhere.
