Vintagephreak:

Hi all, this will probably be my last post here; I’ve started the last batch of listings on ebay and the siege gun can be found here:

Good luck to those interested in any of my auctions. Keep the chaos dwarf community alive- and keep pushing GW on relaunching the race!

WOW! That’s one hell of a model you got there - and very nicely painted.

Must hurt to let this one go.

Good luck with the auction.

clam:

Thank you - Martin! Think I’m pretty much there now - just that second Juggernaut Turret platform - and that unreleased Fotitt- Chaos Dwarf of yours :smiley: - so now it’s time for painting them all.

But perhaps I could persuade you to do the Chaos Dwarfs one final gesture and upload some of those great eBay-pictures of the Siege Cannon to the Siege Cannon and Juggernaut Image Gallery thread. Knowing that they are all history now - but we could all use looking at such inspirational pictures.

Hope we’ll still see you around.

Maybe you could post the Juggernaut - too :smiley:

so, was it the superior’s backside that this model resembled? lol

clam:

Congrats mate; G! $499 really is a lot of money for a single minature isn’t it?

Seems you have found the right time to be selling out you collection.

And prices like this :

- could persuade others to do the same thing :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

More than £50 for a regular Boar Centaur #2 ???

But you have to ask yourself - why don’t these guys just push the “buy it now” button - on one of those Whirlwind buy it now auctions.

Or try out a regular Whirlwind auction. Today they could have had both that wonderful warmachine and the wanted Boar Centaur for ‘just’ £33?? - this one:

eBay is a strange world!

Obsidian:

What the!? $78,- for just one Boar Centaur? That’s crazy!

8

Pyro Stick:

Wow and i didnt think anyone would be stupid enough to raise the price from £30 yesterday! Some chaos dwarf just seem to go for crazy prices for no apparent reason. Does the high bidder even know that it also comes with the buy it now? Im definately going to pm him after the auction.

two_heads_talking:

I have none of the older CD models, and with prices like that, I won’t be getting any in the near future… :frowning:

Yep, I struck gold there! And since the jugger went for $600 I have made decent money so far. The boar centaur is the third version which only came with the juggernaut, but I never thought it'd go thet high... Martin

This one:



No, it's not - this one is the one that came with the Whirlwind - the torso #2 - and as seen here:

http://www.solegends.com/citcat88/0215rocsnakecdwm.jpg

- in the Citadel Miniatures 1988 Catalog

And again here:

- in the 1991 Red Catalog

http://www.solegends.com/citcat912/c20289rcchdwfwms-h.htm

And in my blister pack :)

The 'Juggerboar' should be expected to look like this:



- as printed here:

http://www.solegends.com/citcat912/c20290rcchdwfwms-h.htm

- again in the 1991 Red Catelog

The regular boar legs and torso #3

So as said, there is nothing special about that one pictured in you auction - and the price is way to high (IMO), if the model shown is the one the buyer gets - but who can blame you?

But if they think the have found the rare Juggernaut Boar Centaur I can see why the price is going sky high.

Vintagephreak:

Quite right mate, thanks for correcting me. Now I have no idea why the price is this high, but then again one of my single space marine models just went for $50, even though I listed another example of it last fall and got $7 for it…

A couple of years ago one particular buyer called “Simonafrikapr” popped up on ebay, entered ridiculously hig max bids on lots of common figures (incl. mine), which resulted in many of us collectors selling garden variety minis for up to $100. Sadly he has not reappeared since… Silly and lovely ebay!

PS! Just listed the last of my CDs including all crossbowmen. Martin

clam:

Are we not yet to see a full set of unpainted Marauder Chaos Dwarfs??

I also have a full set of the 24 Marauder chaos dwarfs (unpainted) which will be listed as soon as I can manage and that will be it.

Here it is, my incomplete set of 23 MM90 dwarfs with 13 original Marauder shields and one Citadel chaos shield:


I'll either list them individually or list the set with a BIN price of $380. So I guess that wasn't the last post after all... M;)

clam:

Incomplete - hmmm! - but still a very, very nice lot :smiley:

And I’m glad, I don’t have to go and buy them.

And please do ‘remember’ placing those wonderful pictures of the Siege Cannon (and Juggernaut) in the Image Gallery - section - now will you? :smiley: - please :wink:

Canix:
