Howdy, just joined the site / forum. Long time player from New Zealand who is finally getting round to applying some paint to the big hats.
I’ve got a range of spare CD / Hobgob figures for trade (eg plastic axemen, blunderbuss, odd centaur, sneaky gits, death rocket). I’m looking for the stretcher with shell on top to go with the Earthshaker (not the crew, just the stretcher) and a pair of hobgoblin bolthrowers and metal CD Axemen.
Happy for you to PM me or add to the thread. Other option is that I try and sell bits on ebay and then purchase what I need - but trading seemed far more community spirited!
I’m from New Zealand as well (Christchurch).��Welcome aboard. Is your surname Pittams by any chance? (if it is I think I played your Skaven in a tournament once).
Soon our numbers will be great enough to wrest control of the forum from the North Americans (soon… soon…)
Yep, that’d be me. Nice to see that there other CD enthusiasts out there in Godzone. Shame thats its not that practical to get together other than virtually.
Depends. I know of 5 of us nationally now. You in AKL, me and another in Hamilton, and Wallacer and Father Grumpmas in the South Island. Anyone know of any others?
Other than Paul, mind sharing the actual names of the others? Be a bit rude to bump into you guys at conventions and not ‘compare hats’.
Also, I see an auction this weekend on trademe for CD bits and it looks like Wallacer is bidding. Rather than overbid - if you win the auction are you interested in selling me seperately the bolt thrower?

lol, the bolt thrower is the only reason i'm bidding on the auction :P
I have two already, but neither of them are proper hobgoblin bolt throwers, they're just proxies, and I want a proper one for my collection. Sorry, Reid (I guess we'll just have to start bidding ;)).
Proper names.... well my name is Raymond Wallace, and "Father Grumpmas" is Mike Vercoe (I don't think he'll mind me telling you that).
I'm not hard to spot at tournaments - i'm the short guy with the jug of beer and the perpetual sunburn :D
Unfortunately my mortgage precludes me from being able to travel much to tournaments now, although I used to.
Thanks Wallacer. Allright, I’ll see you on trademe this weekend
C’mon Ellimist - drop the :mask.
I remember Mike from the GT last weekend - he had some very cool old school stuff in his Chaos army.
I was extremely annoyed that they are not allowing CD’s at GT’s this year - I’m hopeful that next year when its rumoured there’ll be a bit more local control that we might be able to change that.
Not sure about Natcon - we’re in a bit of a ‘wait and see’ mode on that one. Be interesting to see what the numbers are going to be for that - not seen too many SI’ers for the Wellington tournies.
Not sure if I’ll have my Hats done by then - I’m aiming for around Easter and am going to experiment with the camera to see if I can start a blog - not done that before.
