Title: Some figures I ain't got a need for
Post by: Fabian on February 10, 2007, 01:55:53 PM
Well here are my paltry collection of minis that however much I kid myself I know I'll not summon up the enthusiasm to paint (or strip and paint better after 15 years):

I think everyone owns a half painted GW terminator  :toothy6:

What is the mini bottom left? Is that a pygmy bottom right?

The fig in the bottom right is an orc from Metal Magic? I think.... he's quite trad and characterful.

What IS a GW terminator? If it's anything close to a GW spacemarine I must declare that I hate them all without exception and would not be caught dead with one.
I have nothing against GW, just spacemarines...

I think a terminator is  space marine in heavy power armour specialised for hand to hand combat.

I don't own one, but I have played Space hulk a few times and I think they are in that.

What don't you like about space marines.... sorry  :offtopic:

Oh and...

Before I go mad, putting up pics and the like - does the prospect of plastic minis + some flags and stands from the old MB Battlemasters game appeal to anyone?  I'm so very sad pur-leeze...

That and some of the plastic orks, grots and marines from the 2ed WH40K boxed set?

:toothy9: that reminds me of my drama classes - whenever I say "Now for the next game, we're going to need a volunteer-" (a plethora of arms shoots up) "But I haven't even toldl you what you'll be doing!" (a dozen 9 year olds then have a collective look of "Duh, oh yeah")  :toothy12:

Well, it shall be done. At some point soonish....

Think i have all of them too...  :icon_redface:

Got two new Battle Masters games for £10.00 each many years ago, not bad plastic figures.

Only have some of the Battlemasters stuff  still intact after all this time - the poor old Reiksgurd Knights now have broken lances (oo-er) and the castle has lost a wall or two...
