You mean Dragonov Kommandos? Good luck, they were selling for around $50 for a unit box last time I checked, more for the attachment box. There's a unit of 9 on ebay right now (w/ sniper rifles) http://www.ebay.com/itm/AT-43-Full-unit-of-9-Red-Blok-Dragonov-Kommandos-Box-Rackham-OOP-ONI-/151497244533?pt=Games_US&hash=item2345f07f75

Spetsnatz Kommandos I've noticed are a little cheaper.

Brookhurst Hobbies has Mantic KOW boxes at about 65% off! but they mostly have elves, dwarfs and undead in stock with maybe a couple Orc regiments. They also seem to have found a new supply of metal Rackham minis, but I don't think there's a discount on them.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Oh, and they have some robogear stuff for 5 bucks each, but you'll probably have to call to order stuff due to the clearance table and forgotten shelf stocking system they use.

They have an online store, but according to their website you can also order by phone. They've said they were trying to eBay the Mantic away, so they'd probably be fine selling it over the phone. I just doubt their computer is correctly kept up to date on the inventory since it is clearance. I got 30 elves for less than $11 and 20 dwarfs and 20 undead for less than $8 each, if that helps decide for you. The only issue I can think of is that some of their employees specialize in other hobbies and may take some explanation.

Is the store local to you? I'm desperately needing a box of zombies and ghouls, or the 1-player battle set. Will pay you extra for your trouble if you can grab it/ship it.

Basically I'm out of zombies and ghouls and want to assemble my Deadzone zombie dudes but want to mix all the kits together.

-- Toy contains a marble. Not for children under 3 yrs.
-- This toy is a marble. Not for children under 3 yrs.
-- This toy is a small ball. Not for children under 3 yrs.

So just what the hell is it now... Is it a marble? Or a toy that contains one? Or is it a ball that contains a marble? I mean a marble is technically a small ball if you're loose with your definitions. SO, I'm guessing we must assume this is a marble that also contains another marble, both of which could be considered small balls. None of which should be considered suitable for children under 3 years. Or anyone really, I mean a glass ball with another glass ball inside is just asking for trouble... Kind of like upgraded/high-tech dried peas, for all of your modern pursuit-defeating needs

Spoiler:

But really, it's a small pocket knife that costs almost 200 bucks. I would much rather buy Bilbo's Sting replica for 30-50 bucks less which was in the related items

Hell Bob, you must be pretty local to myself and Barzam then, as we frequent Brookhurst when the men of the family are all able to gather accordingly.

How were the Mantic stock levels in store? I might grab a few boxes if they're still selling them for those prices.

How was their Confrontation stock? I was there around Sep./ Oct last and they had RACKS of Rackham stuff. I want to go get some more orcs.

Seems I might need to make a trip to OC in the ensuing weeks...

I went back today and it was somewhat reduced. They have lots and lots of elves and dwarfs, but the orcs are gone, and so are all the zombies. They have 3 or 4 boxes of skeletons and another couple Revenant regiments, as well as a couple balefire batteries. There was also one Orx raptor marked at $7.99, but none of the other Warpath stuff is on sale, so it might be a mislabelled item.

They still have about one spinner of Confrontation, although I haven't looked at it closely. A few months ago, though, I noticed that they still have boxes in overstock (near the plastic Age of Ragnarok stuff, not the spinners) labelled Confrontation, which I assume are full of metal blisters. However, they seem to have had a reorganization to make room for paints and non-GW games, so it might have been moved. Also, not on sale.

Not a specific sale per se, but I did notice this whilst browsing:

http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-X-Wing-Miniatures-Game/dp/1616613769/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417979280&sr=8-1&keywords=xwing
X-wing main game/starter box/whatever they call it.. oh Core Set, apparently, for 23 bucks on amazon. If you're a Prime subscriber (or they're still giving away free trials for a month...) that puts it down 3-4 bucks cheaper than Miniature market (one of the next lowest prices for it I've seen) with 'free' 2 day shipping.

Considering it myself, thought I'd share.

X-Wing is back up to $29, that might have been one of Amazon's lightning deals for $23

Fantasy flight did wind up charging my card and shipping my order, which came in friday (2 weeks after ordering). My email from the 28th wasn't answered till the following monday and they claim that the initial charge is just a pre-charge and isn't finalized until they process and ship the order and supposedly some banks will automatically drop the precharge if it hasn't been finalized within a certain time period.

Which would all have been fine if the answer to the second part of my email requesting a change to the order hadn't been "it's already in process and we can't make any changes to it" despite not getting a confirmation email of it being processed and shipped until later that day :/

So they sat on my order for a week, sat on my email for another 3 days, then claimed they had already processed it which they hadn't. Between that and the high shipping I don't think I'll be ordering direct from FFG ever again no matter how good the sale is

I can recommend the minitaire stuff. I use it for both air and bristle brushes. It's a touch satiny in finish rather than really flat, but if you're going to matte seal your work, you likely won't notice in the result. The 3 included varnishes are pretty shiny though, even the flat one is eggshell/satin rather than proper flat.

Anyone know anything about the Patriot? I've heard the name but I really like my Sotar 20/20.

Picked up the Minitaire paints today. I told myself that I wouldn't pick up any more toys unless it was a deal that was too good to pass up. It was a deal that was too good to pass up. Kinda kicking myself for not getting the Patriot 105 at the same time.

Yeah I was busy during those. I think I spent somewhere between 130 and 170 on the paints, I can't remember the price. I think current sale price is 150. Probably worth it for that, a bit under 2 bucks a paint. They're also bigger than vallejo.

For 100 bucks, the paint set was practically can't miss.

Bagged a Patriot.

Ludicrously good value, came in at £50 with shipping and taxes, the typical price in the UK is £100-120.

Cannot believe my luck on this, I was all set to spend around £62 on this anyway, so the saving was an absolute genuine bargain.
