Updated modern models :sick The original models are way to cool to be replaced
And for painted vs. unpainted - well if its done with acrylics I don’t really care that much. Crystal soap will ‘eat’ it Im sure - and I want them for painting purposes.
Oh - nothing fancy. Want to introduce my son to other than 40K Space Orcs and stinky marines - and I have a game but quite few models are missing. We have heroes, goblins, orcs and a few fimirs - but ther others has gone. But will probably re-base and paint them.
Ogres are simply because they are awesome. And would like a little ogre warband (and a firmir one) for my CDs.
Was wandering round the big boot sale in Hexham today as the last time I was there I got a tin full of old citadel minis and there it was. The woman said it was her busbands from when he was a kid but she didnt think it had been used as had been in attic for years. I had a quick look and other than not being on sprues or anything it didnt look used. Box is almost mint too with no tears or splits.
Feigning indifference I asked how much and had to stop a huge grin when she said £2!
By the way, is ‘Heroquest’ a good ‘entry’ game? My four year old daughter asked to play ‘Dungeons and Dragons’ a couple of days ago, but I think she would get bored quite quickly with the ‘psychodrama’, as opposed to having an actual board. I was toying with the idea of setting up a bunch of terrain and having her move around encountering ‘wandering monsters’ as a start, but maybe Heroquest would be a bit better. Thoughts?
