Arc Troopers for Legion and one of those grav tanks the republic can use. Forget the name but loved using them in Battlefront 2.

Bought some pdfs from wargamesvault. Song of Our Ancestors, Song of Blades and Heroes (basic since I already had advanced and our group prefers basic), and Void Pirates.

Managed to find someone selling a Derelict Manufactorum, a truly wonderful kit that contains a unique sprue available no where else.

Including shipping it was still 25% off. That gives me the 6th one of these I could never get a hold of at the time they were still on sale. Allows me to complete the Destroyed Fuel Processing Plant I've been working on, gives me another stack to Lothal Tower could potentially go to 5 stories tall, and leaves me all the necessary parts to complete the overgrown Imperium sections of my Death World table.

A bunch of crates/barrels/treasure chests/other-misc-things-you'd-find-on-a-ship for our upcoming Pirate themed D&D game.

Dirt cheap copies of Codex:Tau & The Greater Good PA volume.
As I'm simply steam-rolling every opponent in our 40k Crusade league with my Necrons, I figure it's time to switch things up for the next time.
I'll dig my Tau out of storage in the coming weeks & get them ready while we shift into a Sigmar PtG campaign.
I'm told that the Tau are terrible in this current edition.
Challenge accepted. Let's see how brutally effective I can make the Tau.

Ordered me a bunch of stuff on Amazon. The new Kill Team Octarius box, the compendium, a new box of Howling Banshees, another box of Harlequins (might make them my main in Kill Team 2: Electric Boogaloo) and the Munitorium armoured containers set, and all of it was cheaper than buying from GW here even with the GST and the large Amazon shipping costs.

Today was an expensive* day hobby wise....
1x Viking Longship model suitable for minis wargaming use,
1x new 40k Ork codex
1x new AoS orc codex
1x new AoS Stormcast codex
1x newest fey themed 5e D&D book
1x Necron Doomstalker
1× Necron Silent King
And several misc people minis that'll get used in our D&D game....

Seems exce$$ive, right?
But really it's just funds that had been set aside for GenCon. Since I'm not spending that $ on a Hotel room again this year.... So still within the "hobby budget" for 2021.

Concerning the packaging, not weird at all.
Could be either
1) just a general cost saving step.
2) if produced recently, say in the past year, there may well be production/shipping/supply issues affecting the availability of those custom styrene trays.
I mean, nobody ever considers the packaging that stuff comes in - but someone sure as he'll MAKES it. Out of something. Wich comes from somewhere....
So if that supply chain gets disrupted, guess what? No custom styrene trays for you.

I'm sure it's a cost-saving measure, as they're crammed into a very small box, and you get twice as many as a regular box.

Well depends on how much you spend on models If you spend 10x money and effort to terrain it might be odd

Generally problem is otherway around. Not enough money and effort spent on terrain.

I've spent ~500€ on terrain this year, and about 350€ on models, so not 10x. OTOH I'd probably spend even more money on terrain if I had unlimited storage space

Only excuse I can come up with is always being super inspired by the miniature scenery used in OG scifi movies. Maybe I want to try to achieve a similar level of excellence subconsciously by throwing money at the problem? Oh well, there are more expensive ways to lose money..

They've been OOP for three years now. They just haven't all sold.

A pack of WK deepcut Gnome Bards (females) for our Pirates D&D game.

One of the players rolled up a Gnome Bard for the groups upcoming Pirate D&D game, handed me $, & asked me if I'd pick up the pack when I was at the shop next. (it's not like it's out of my way as they knew I had a KT game scheduled there this evening)

Spotted Imperium mag #4 when buying some printer paper in my local newsagent yesterday. Couldn't resist buying it, even though I had #4 on pre-order from Dark Sphere and already had the Skorpekh Destroyer kit from Indomitus courtesy of eBay.

Dark Sphere order turned up this morning.

My new Necron army is looking to be a little heavy on the Skorpekh Destroyer front.




NB: should probably think about doing something with all of the Conquest stuff I have still on sprue...

Supertank printer, which has been a godsend for printing rulebook PDFs and paper miniatures. Would recommend (with some research) if you intend to make frequent large-volume printouts. Much better cost-wise in the long term than a cartridge inkjet printer. Makes it a bit easier to keep away from screens now that it’s no longer necessary to have the rules on a screen.

Printed out a good chunk of that Pokemon TTRPG (800 pages) and it only took about 1/5 of the ink in the printer.

For magnetisers, more arms are the thing. I used all of mine up from the regular kit.
For anyone else, that's a lot of wasted options, with only 4 weapons to use from the pile of 20 in the set.
I can just see what look like a Las sub-carbine in the set though. That makes it almost worth getting.

[update]
That got me to check again, and the "Aircraft and Aces – Asuryani Cards" are back on pre-prder.
So, I just added the "Van Saar Weapon upgrade" to the order. That sub-carbines won me over. Lots of melee options and headshelped there.

You lot are bad for my wallet.

Friend of mine's "paint and tools" box used to be just a crate with everything shoved inside. Reaching in there was always a gamble, as you were just as likely to retrieve a paint pot or brush as you were a new case of tetanus or arterial bleeding.

Did quite a lot of work on my Callidus Assassin and a bit on my Vindicare Assassin. Both are great minis to practise edge highlighting. I've actually almost completed my Callidus Assassin already which made me happy. As I said earlier it'd be awesome to be able to play them in Kill Team 2: Electric Boogaloo, maybe two of them take up a Fire Team? So you could have seven guardsmen working alongside a Vindicare and a Callidus? I think balancing Eversor Assassin and his explosion would a bit of a bastard though lol

The resin kits had the weapon holding arm attached,


That's not an issue, if you buy the regular kit you'll have plenty of arm/butts. The upgrade pack may hurt only if you managed to find extra bodies (with no weapons) for cheap, and want to combine with the upgrade pack, which is not really likely considering the cost of the regular 10 man kit that is low enough that getting bitzes for something like 10 bodies is actually more expensive than getting the whole box.

Some Mechanicus Standard Grey and Astrogranit Debris for my bases. Used a crap-ton for my Craftworld Eldar as their bases are...BASED...on the war they waged against Slaaneshi invaders attacking their Craftworld. Also, my Officio Assassinorum operatives as I've made them be on a dead world covered in ash like earth at the beginning of Terminator 2, so I want to make it the same for the enemies of the Assassinorum: Execution Force board game as well.

My aim was to cool off for a few months - maybe to the end of the year - and not buy anything for a while (with one very specific exception). I was even going to pass on the new KT box (except for a few rare Sector Imperialis frames from that box).

But, thanks to GW's Soviet/CCP-style "unperson-ing" of their various terrain kits, where things will just go OOP without warning or explanation, and the recent revelation that the Necromunda Gang Stronhold is now gone (according to GWUS), my hand was forced.

So I picked up 4 sets, plus some extra walls and extra stairs/platforms.

And the specific exception I mentioned? Well that's to get hold of 3 of the new Captain from Imperium Magazine (as two friends also wanted one), and Sergeant Castus.

MOAR ZONE MORTALIS!

Another set of walls (think I’ve now got six or seven in total?

Another set of stairs and platforms (three or four of those)

That natty transfer set whilst I remembered it existed.

Fourth and final (lol) floors

And a pot of XV-88 to just edge me over the £150 target so I can get a second Sgt Castus.

Why I shall have the prettiest Zone Mortalis Board in all the land! And being able to do a full 4x4 also means that when plastic Heresy comes along, said Prettiest Zone Mortalis Board In All The Land* can pull double duty like the dirty beast it is.

My impression is that these days the mail order and phone staff are little more than the same as GW store managers. Which means most of the time the information they have is the same information that is on the GW webstore. Ergo they don't go and ask the web-store manager or the production staff for updates. They just tell you what the webstore tells them. Which IN THEORY should work because its tied to the Warehouse inventory system.


However in practice it doesn't work. GW makes changes sometimes appearing to change on the fly which throws up confusion; furthermore GW has an error on the webstore (The FW side has it appearing a LOT) where for some reason out of stock items get shown as discontinued. IT also doesn't help that any product change results in a new product code which means the old product has to be replaced in the system - which means the old gets discontinued. Sometimes you can catch the transfer when one is discontinued and the new is there; but often as not the discontinued is removed and its some tim before its returned.


Basically there's a communication breakdown between actual production staff and front-end support staff.

It might not be them making stuff up, but trying to work within a system to provide an answer to a customer based on the company's general position whilst not being allowed/able to contact the relevant staff.

Part of this is likely just GW growing in scale and size. It's easy to ask production when there's only a dozen emails a day; but when you deal with hundreds suddenly it becomes a problem and someone higher up says "ok stop asking production you're interrupting their work".


Again in theory as GW has most of its company in-house they should really be on top of this - but they aren't. I think part of it is the hyper compartmentalising that GW does to protect its production secrets on what is coming and what is changing. Which has kind of always been there and got worse over the years - esp under Kirby and perhaps also as a result of dealings with WB and Lord of the Rings.

Who sells Rhino sides without the tracks? I mean OK it was clear from the picture and description that tracks are not included and I should have noticed but still...

I mean who buys a trackless Rhino side? Who buys Rhino-less tracks?

An easy fix with thin plastic card but c'mon!

Uh anyway I got 3 bare bones rhinos, coming in around $20 a pop, no hatches or extras which is fine since they'll be chaosed to hell and back. Fingers crossed this ends up looking good and not just a Rhino with random bits stuck to it...

Raises hand....

Why? Because sometimes you need to refurbish something.
EX:
Last year a local shop took in a sorry ass SoB collection.
It was a dirty, poorly painted, & poorly assembled mess. All the vehicles were missing bitz - including their tracks.
This player had slapped enough together to get playing, played a # of games, and then decided against 40k.
Then they left it sit in an open box on a garrage shelf for a year+ collecting dirt, never finishing the models & losing bitz. Including all the tracks apparently.
Then last year they needed some $.
The shop paid them pennies on the dollar.
I paid the shop dimes on the dollar for the force, invested around another $50 or so + some time (time was plentiful summer 2020....) and flipped it for a decent profit.

I just got my 2 boxes and they're all banana bent. Trying hot water now.

EDIT: Fixed 2, destroyed 2, not touching the rest. Turns out there's maybe a 2 degree window just below boiling at which the plastic is pliable, go over and it's going to warp like mad and get stuck that way.

28cmx21cm oval base(trying to turn smaug into the khorne lord & his dragon).

Damn this sort of small order from UK order gets expensive. 2.5£ for base itself. 5.95£ for postage. Well this was still cheapest source for this sort of weird base that I know. Then it comes here. Outside EU so I need to go through customs. That added another 2.6£ to the fee. Then local post office charges extra for packages that needs to go through custom which added about 2.7£ more to the thing so almost 14£ spent on one bloody base.

Alas not much supply on 280mmx210mm oval bases...Not that there likely is much demand either

Taking advantage of Heroforge's Black Friday sale: https://www.heroforge.com/

Enjoy $5* off any of our physical 3D printed miniatures with the code:
EpicLoot
STL and VTT digital downloads are on sale for $3.99, no code needed!

The code is good until 11-29-2021.

Now the detail is about the same as the early Reaper Bones figures, and the cheapest plastic they offer is $19.99 before the discount. Shipping within the US is $7.99, so these 3d printed figures are not cheap or very detailed. However, this lets you customize a character model and get something offbeat that you need but no one makes commercially. Like a cyberpunk kitsune (although maybe there is one on Etsy since I last looked at cyberpunk figures). So anyway, I bought two figures I designed, both for Stargrave. Also designed the cyberpunk kitsune, but not bought it yet.

Also kickstarted Colony 87 Wave 4 last month.

I've been really good at not buying minis the last few months. This all fell apart when a friend of mine asked if I'd buy his 4000pts of Dark Elves for 150 bucks. So now I have 4000 extra points to add to my already unpainted 2000pt army.

Ordered a bunch of Black Templar Crusader helms, plus a few bits and bobs from the BT Upgrade sprue.

All my Primaris Sergeants will have Crusader helms, as they look cooler than the pseudo Mk.IV helmets Primaris normally have. And the other parts - the big sword, one of the hand-held icons, etc. - will go towards kitbashing a second Judiciar.

It's not a game purchase, but a hobby related one so will hopefully qualify?

Preordered "The Art Of... Vol 3: Ana Polanscak" miniature art book. I was dumb and missed the kickstarter, but at least I got my copy in, will just have to live without the backer extras.

Oh yeah, I did also buy Kill Team: Chalnath book from ebay. Figured I can always get the minis later, but the book itself will be harder to find for a decent price once Chalnath box goes OOP. Didn't fancy the terrain (prefer the more industrial looking buildings in the terrain range) so the full box wasnt a viable purchase for me. Besides, I'm still waiting for GW to release the KT21 DKoK kit separately..

Wizkids Giant Eagle, which is now painted and the first model I based with scale foliage instead of just plain Stirland Mud (which made a big difference) and used dedicated mini brushes on instead of generic acrylic (which made a much bigger difference!)
It could've been way better, and it really could've used some more forethought on the colors, but feth it- I'm happy enough with it.

As far as i'm aware, yes, it's the same size. Comes with both hammer and spear options, too! Which I didn't realise. Nice touch.

It is the same size, and has the option for a hammer or a spear (I've got that troll from the old Mines of Moria starter, from back when dinosaurs ruled the earth ).

Also picked up 2 SW Armada starter sets (making it 4 total since I started with the game) since I was having trouble finding victories at a decent price and I could always use more Nebulon Bs and Corellian Corvettes.

Two packs of Battle Ready Bases by Gamers Grass to finish off a pair of D&D figs.
25mm winter & 25mm broken cobblestone.

My initial thought was to base the minis on cobblestone as that'd be very thematic for the adventure.
Now I could make such bases myself. But seeing as I was going to be at a shop that sells exactly this today....
Then I saw the winter bases.
I Couldn't decide wich I liked better, so I got them both. They'll all get used eventually.

Dragon Castle (a board game).
3 different cyborgs from Urban Mammoth's Urban War line for use in Stargrave.
Astreia Solbright. [Wanted her, and since she's been discontinued, thought I'd better buy her now. The others I saw for sale had already been marked up.]

From Barnes and Noble, Bladeborn. It is Warcry light as a board game. So a hex grid, and no vertical movement. Otherwise, it is similar, even including a campaign system. Abilities activate off of doubles and triples, as the Wild dice have been removed. The simplicity is mainly any choice has been removed: everything is fixed.
Also included are cards for four other Warhammer Underworlds "teams" like The Eyes of the Nine, and there is a separate rules inset that gives Warcry stats and abilities for all six war bands. They each play as their own faction, not as their components would suggest. Thus the Beastman team uses its own ability card, not that of Beasts of Chaos as one might expect. Normally, the Eyes of the Nine would not be a legal team in Warcry as it mixes mortal and demonic Tzeetchians, but GW has made it its own faction with its own abilities.
While I may never play Bladeborn itself, I wanted the figures and it was cheaper buying them this way. And, hey, maybe I will play this as a board game. Quicker set up and tear down than standard War Cry.

A dude at work wanted to practice CAD stuff for his 3D printer and I half jokingly told him I'd buy 40mm ogre bases if he can make them in the same dimensions. Well, we work in a machine shop. He came over to my locker with some digital calipers and got the exact dimensional data from one of my models. The 5 he handed me today were the free test run, and I now have options to order as many as I need as well as an offer to have the program if I wind up getting a printer of my own.

A couple of days ago I ordered a 1:144 scale WACO glider for my WWII Flames of War Americans.

All the other planes are 1:44 so I didn't really think about it. Later on though I decided it'd probably be too small if actually on the table - you know, after it lands/crashes & the plt disembarks.
Figured I see in a few days....

The kit that arrived? Nice model, but yes, definitely too small to represent a landed glider. I'll have to track down another one at 1:100 scale.
I'll still build & paint this one up though.

The time has come….for me to continue my vintage book collections into 2nd Ed. The greatest Ed ever, because that’s when I cut my teeth properly and clearly that therefore makes it the best and if you disagree you’re wrong and silly and you’ve not though it through at all.

I’ve already got the Imperial Guard book, and I’m presently stalking a copy of Codex Eldar on the eBay. Reckon I’ll make like a Pathfinder and do what I can to snipe it.

I’ve no particular plan to buy them in any particular order. Rather I’ll see what’s what around each payday, and if I can get a good price on a book I don’t have, I’ll go for it. Though I’ll probably shelf them in publication order.

I may even rope my friend into a couple of games for old times sake.

A Union Brigade box for Black Powder Epic Battles (Warlord Games).

A couple of us are considering trying this game.
So we figure we'll start really small, invest $30some bucks, & split this box.
Comes with 300 infantry, 3 cannon, & 3 HQ guys. That'll be enough to give it a demo.

Eldritch Omens - Turns out, despite its UK and US price, it was not AUD$340 as I predicted, but AUD$290. Still stupidly expensive for a tiny amount of models*.

Re-added the Primaris Captain from my cancelled order last week, and threw in a Hexmark Destroyer as it was on clearance, so got it for 25% off.

*"bUt ThEy'Re At A dIsCoUnT iN tHe BoX!"
A discount compared to what? Their eventual separate release, where they'll be even more of a a rip-off? Doesn't stop them from being a rip-off now. They're just less of a rip-off than they will be.

Just took money and never shipped, even stuff in stock, and don't respond to any communication channel. We'll see once the Paypal claims time out uncontested and automatically rule my way (gods I hope that's still how it works) if there's money in their account for refunds, in which case they all died and the system is still running by itself (had this happen once before), or there isn't and they really took the money and ran.

Honestly it sounds like it deserves a thread of its own, scams/issues like that deserve highlighting in public.

And PP are generally pretty pro-customer in how they handle things. Certainly if you've presented your case sensibly, calmly and well and if they've not countered then there's every chance PP will refund you and then chase them. If they are trading through PP then that will be a big blow to them to get refund requests like that.


Also really strange if they are not communicating. I can understand listing stuff in stock and not shipping (eg waiting for the whole order to be in stock or their stock on website isn't tied to their inventory system perfectly); but no communications or replies or anything is a big red flag.

Got myself the WD with the Crusher Stampede rules, a single pot of pain and a white primer can.

I don't plan to run the Crusher army in the very short term (and with the codex coming soon-ish, probably not before the book is released unless an opportunity came for such a game), but for the curiosity of it mostly. The rules seems good, and hey, good Tyranids contend is very few and far between so Imma at least give that a read!

If it's still compatible with the new book, great, if not, no biggie, a single WD in probably 15 years isn't so bad and there's the rest of the magazine to read too

Also really strange if they are not communicating. I can understand listing stuff in stock and not shipping (eg waiting for the whole order to be in stock or their stock on website isn't tied to their inventory system perfectly); but no communications or replies or anything is a big red flag.


Woo! First of two orders just got refunded through Paypal dispute, still with zero feedback from seller, so I'm sticking with the "everybody working there died" theory.

A whole lotta FW resin.
I've had the shopping list drawn up for some time, I've got the $, & FW listed all but 1 piece as being in-stock.
So, with the coming price increases, there wasn't really any reason to keep delaying it. Unless I wanted to spend more for no reason....

I'm now fully refunded, thanks for the emotional support, Dok and Overread Still no reaction from the seller at all.

Gonna have to make another order very soon, I forgot to add something for a friend's birthday. Contemplating getting myself a 2nd Underhive Sector alongside the present, at least that way I hit the free shipping threshold...

Sounds like the store must be in really bad shape for them to not even react to a PP dispute. A shame, but at least you've got your money back from them

I made my two orders from them a month apart and from the order numbers it's clear they took 300 other orders in between... if they're all ending up like this it's a gakshow of epic proportions. And from their FB wall it seems this was like a mom and pop brick&mortar store that used to hold events and everything.

I guess they could have hit the problem that not enough on-foot sales and events sapped them of income. Throw in rising shipping and a few delivery delays and they've like as not run out of operating money and rely on new orders to pay for previous orders. Which often is a slow, painful, drawn out death for any firm unless they can source an investment, a massive sales spike or otherwise overcome the deficit. Of course along the way refunds, chargebacks and such will all make it worse - as will lack of transparency and communication.

Ordered 2 lots of the MtO Easterlings, and had them already arrive yesterday (a nice surprise for sure). Today, since I had a bit of extra money kicking around and I was already at my FLGS to pick up a couple of paints, I decided to grab a box of Stormdrake Guard for my Stormcast Eternals army.

Edit: I guess yesterday is 2 days ago and today is yesterday since it's well past midnight locally. Don't post when you're about to pass out from fatigue, kids.

* I was looking for a BA German 1/2track for the grots. But the only one the shop had was in a starter set - of wich i wanted nothing else from. So rather than waste a lot of $....
They'll look cool enough mounted in a Universal Carrier.

Purchased some KR Multicase boxes to store my old metal Eldar.

Not as happy with this as I have in previous purchases. I used their recommendations on the size trays to fit my army, but I found the foam cut-outs to be much too small to fit the figures. And I have old metal Eldar, which are much smaller than the current range.

Previous armies have fit in splendidly into their foam trays.

I currently need to look for some more foams now that my original source for Army Transport foam dried out, also for a friend that got into the hobby and need some fn her own. Been looking at both KR and Battle foam, but KR site is a bit confusing to use I think. Are you talking about pre-cut infantry foam with square/rectangle in them?

A copy of some army books and campaign books for Bolt Action.

Bizarrely, one I accidentally bought twice -Armies of Great Britain. Which was BLANK every 2nd page. I got the refund today after taking a week for it after I asked. Seeing as I ordered 2 by accident, it actually worked out for me all ok.

I also got a Small Supply Crate and Crusader II tank from Warlord- list of what came in the crate is on the link at my blog. Some of which I actually liked to get!

Yes, KR Multicase cuts the foam blocks to fit all sizes of infantry models, as well as thicker blocks for tanks, bikes, artillery, etc. Cost wise, you want to buy one of their cardboard boxes that fits a number of trays (rather than buying just a couple of pre-cut foam sheets). It is an expensive supplier, when you look at the cost of individual trays it looks even worse...but they have a flat rate for a box filled with trays which makes it more affordable.

My two cents,

If you email your model list to KR, they used to sort out a tray list for you to fit them all into.
Their auto-filler tool has got better than it was, and has a go at the same, using a list of models to suggest which trays to get.
At long as you know which type of box you want to get for the foam, which determines how much foam will fit into a box. 1 KRU is a standard cardboard box, and trays are rated as fractions of a KRU.
