Oooh, far too much. My most immediate plans (ie. Stuff I plan to get in the next 8-10 months or so, as I have a pretty limited budget) are:
- 2 more Tactical Squads to finish off my BA, then I'm calling them done.
- Some Nomads to bring me up to a full force of them, possibly the Corregidor starter.
- One or two more boxes of Dwarves to round out my converted Iron Hills LotR army
- A squad or two of the new AdMech infantry, possibly just for painting
- The Lucius and either Tara or Ironsides crews for Malifaux.
Further down the list, at least 2 more LotR armies, probably using WGF (orcs) and Perry or WGF (Laketown/Dale) minis, possibly more Infinity and Malifaux, and maybe some more 40k if the mood takes me.
Of course, there's no way I'll ends up getting all of that, either because I'll replace/lose interest in projects or just can't afford it all, but that's a rough idea of where I might be going.
Well as i am aiming at collecting at least four armies for the thirty year war, I will need some 400+ models from Warlord. So quite a few boxes of infateri and cavalry, i plan on perhapings using Perry miniatures for commander and battalion leaders, and the same for cannons and the like.
Outside that I need at least four more squads of footsloggers for my early war Colonial French army
For me, since I just got that tax return I've been going on about on various forum posts, I'll be getting the rest of what I need to start fielding Khorne Daemonkin. Specifically:
-2 boxes of CSM Raptors (already have 1 squad assembled)
-CSM Heldrake
-2 CSM Rhinos
-1 box of regular CSM -1 more box of Bloodletters (already have 1)
-Possibly a box of Bloodcrushers or a Skull Cannon (for summoning purposes)
-And, of course, a Bloodthirster! You guessed it, I'm running a Blood Host with Khorne's Bloodstorm!
Of course, after I get all this stuff, I have to assemble and paint it all! But that's half the fun!
P.S. Of course, there may be a few unplanned acquisitions for my Dark Angels and/or Tau armies, too!
Next up is probably some new paints. A few of mine are getting low so I need to restock.
From a mini POV, it depends on how the rumors pan out. If we get new Eldar jetbikes, probably a box of those. Barring anything new and exciting dropping, probably a fire prism.
Raven Guard v. Tau boxed set (if rumor is true)
Adepta Sororitas Codex (if rumor is true)
Robotech RPG Tactics boxed set
One or more sets for an Eldar conversion idea
Next week I'll buy at least one Onager Dunecrawler.
That is a good addition to my Adeptus Mechanicus army since we now have official models. That should keep me busy for some time until the new boxed set involving the Tau is released. I'll probably buy more than one, depending on what's included (please for the love of God no Piranhas).

Stormwall wrote:Imperial knight. Maybe a dune crawler as a one off?
Yeah I think an Imperial Knight is number 3 model on my shopping list!
About $500 worth of Thunderbolt Mountain Miniatures Wood Elves and High Elves to use as either a Mirkwood, Mid-3rd Age Silvan Elves Army with an allied contingent from Lothlórien or as a First Age Doriath Army with an Allied contingent from Finrod Fealagund.
A TON of Skeletons from Iron Wind Metals re-release of their Chaos Wars lines (Which consist of the old Tom Meier Fantasy Collector's Lines and Guthrie and Mize Fantasy series figures) to use as my army of Undead for the Necromancer.
A Ton of the old Citadel Plastic Skeletons from '86/87/88 (can't recall exactly which year) for a Hyborian Army of Undead. I will need to find some ghouls/zombies/undead for the skill afleshed undead for the Hyborian army.
A Ton of Fantasy Vikings for the Hybrorian Aesir and Vanir (I may wind up sculpting these myself). I could probably use them as double-duty for First Age (Middle-earth) Easterlings of Bór and Ulfang respectively (or would that then be Vanir and Aesir???), since the First Age Easterlings were the equivalent of Vikings,

Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh! And maybe some new Tau if the rumors are true.
Yeah. Knights are so cool. A wonderfully convertible kit. I just have to figure out a way to make a sea-drake/serpent for it to fight on the base once I buy it. (Rewarding myself once I paint up my 2k pts worth of marines.)
Concerning the new releases. I'm not saying I'm excited about this but...
Spoiler:
I'm excited. Look at the possibilities. Howl's moving dunecrawler!
Next on my list is paint paint and more paint, since I'm starting back up with it I have nothing. My Girlfriend has got me some nice brushes from the craft store she works at, and I have a few modelling bits in the post. (Cutting matt, knives etc.) But I have a list of paints that I want to get for the colour scheme I have planned.
Anyone know good discount sites for Citadel paint?
I've got a $100 gift card from work set aside for some new Malifaux crews (Brewmaster and Collidi). Other than that I'm trying to reduce my painting backlog, not increase it.
Tools and paints. I'll never get through my existing backlog, as it is, and I don't play anything that would nudge me towards a "new shiny" to stay current. There's a saturation point, with miniatures, but one can never have too many tools.
I'm looking at getting some scenery next (probably Kallistra pre-made lakes because I'm lazy), and some Foundry Amazons for a faction in Of Gods & Mortals.

Between post adepticon sticker shock (so many deals at the bitz swap), getting married in two weeks, and having plenty of projects, I don't see myself buying much any time soon. A few things I'll be picking more than likely are:
- replacement paints for empty pots (which shouldn't count, as If I'm draining paints, I'm clearly painting)
- Bolt Action Germans (Puma, panzergrenadiers, guarding the chateau, etc.)
- Cygnar Stormwall

You should see if your FLGS does wedding registries. And congrats.

My lovely bride is very supportive of gaming, but I think she'd murder me in my sleep if I tried to pull that.
Realistically, I want to focus any hobby spending on things I"m going to play immediately, which is why I"m focused so much on Bolt Action (what I've been playing the most) and the Stormwall (probably the most critical missing piece from my Cygnar).
1. (Arena Rex) Acerbus, Euryale, and Sulla
2. (Infinity) Combined Army: Anathematic, box set, Med-Tech, Ikadrons, etc.
3. (Infinity) Miscellaneous add-ons for O:I Pan-O and Nomads
4. New WN brushes
I've got a few miscellaneous items for my Malifaux and Infinity collections left to pick up, but I've got just about everything already for the lists I want to run.
The big project comes as a reward once I can find a better job: Dornian Heresy, starting with Gal Vorbak as possessed Imperial Fists. After that, I have a plan for a small force of true-scale loyalist Emperor's Children that I am positively burning to get started on.
1) Verminlord for a counts-as Lord of Change
2) Some more Skitarii, probably a Dunecrawler and some Ruststalkers
3) Some sort of walker, be it a Warlord Titan, a Knight, or one of Dreamforge's Leviathans
4) A Gal Vorbak Dread or three
5) Various other Chaos-y packs, either to fill out my troops, or simply to fill my bits box
I think my wallet just ran screaming now that I have it written down.....ahhh well, I knew it wasn't gonna be cheap when I restarted this hobby I'm sure this list will explode if the rumours of a full Adeptus Mechanicus Codex comes out. I just don't want to get my hopes up for that...
some decals from forgeworld
stuff for a new paint rack for the craft room
stuff for a new shelf for the game room.
terrain supplies for a new table project.
2.5 lb weight for base of super heavy flyer.
I really need to stop looking at the forgeworld site, at least until all my current stock us stripped and repainted. Some of the air support looks just wonderful.
Well if Eldar rumors hold true I am looking forward to buying some of the new bikes.
Plus some Eldar superheavies since our local tournaments are fielding more and more forgeworld staff.... but I aint buying from Forgeworld...
A baneblade, a Leaman Russ Executioner, the Maelstrom's edge starter set, and the raven guard vs tau boxed set if the rumours are correct.
And that hand drill thing GW sell.
I am debating the next level of my Cygnar. I hadn't bought much in quite some time (maybe a year) except for the 3 units of Gun Mages for a fun list. Hal3y is a definite when she comes out but at the moment I think I would like
I will also get the Circle Orboros all in one next month and Bradigus as it will flesh out my Circle a lot. I also need another Reckoner for my Menoth which will help round out my 50pt lists.
I'm basically trying to stagger everything as to not get a painting backlog like I did with my Circle.
The rest of the current wave of releases for Star Wars Assault. Got Han, Chewie, IG88 and Rebel Troopers this month. want to try and keep on top of them
New Eldar codex just hopped to the top of my list. If the new detachment thing is worth it, I’ll also need another box of bikes, and probably a seer or two.
now that i am back from Mexico, and in L.A. for a little while, i can actually buy some stuff without paying double the cost for shipping, and waiting two months for it to arrive...
time to finally get that Blood Angels Tactical Squad...
i look forward to getting my hands on some of those 32mm bases that look so much better for Marines...
Hmmm....
First up is a Girls und Panzer Maus kit in 1/72 scale
Then there is the 1/56 (40K scale) Maus that I saw a while back
A StugIII plastic kit from Warlord games
A box of Robogear stuff from the market that I hope will still be there when I go to purchase it
Several historical tanks for converting into IG tanks.
True enough, I still need to buy the majority of the paint I will need yet though. I have a base coat, just still umming and ahhing over highlights and trim etc. reckon I will go ahead and build everything, prime it too and then take it from there.
Definitely fill out my Thunderbolt Mountain Wood Elves as Mirkwood Silvan Elves or First Age Middle-earth Doriath Sindarin (which includes many Silvan Elves - Teleri, since the Silvan and Sindarin Elves were both of the Teleri).
Technically, for First Age Doriath Sindarin, I would need some Axe-Men among the Scouts, as they were armed with Bow and Axe. They were the Doriath Border Guards who guarded the Girdle of Melian near the Dorthonian Plateau.
With the new Eldar coming out, its a great excuse to start a new Eldar force. For me its gonna be:
1. Farseer Skyrunner
2.Warlock Skyrunner
3.Jetbikes Galore!
first: Skitarii Battle maniple to finish off my 1500 point force
then: all 4 new plastic assassins when they come out
Finaly: either a few more tempestus scions, a few valkries, or warmachine stuff
I also want a GW Mechanicum force to expand out my FW Mechanicum however I'm waiting on the full codex to drop and I have the Warhammer World Open Day coming up in a few weeks and I'm saving funds for that as I'm after:
The Warlord (assuming its under £1k with all the weapons)
Roboute Guilliman
UM Command or Honor Guard depending what they are
Book V of HH Xiphon pattern Interceptor
Any other UM goodies
1. Some bikers, battle wagon and box of boys for my orks
2. Contemptor dread and Sicarian from FW 3. New army - Probably Tau, maybe Necrons, slight possibility of Chaos.
If the boxset rumours are true, then Tau it will be
Current Project: Samurai
I need paint, basing flowers and if my homemade decals come out poorly try to buy some.
Get the Daisho rules.
Next Project: Teutonic Knights
Buy some more Knights.
Figure out what basing scheme I want to use and buy bases.
Paint and basing snow.
Decals
Future Projects:
Frostgrave
Victorian Sci Fi skirmish warband. Thinking of doing Vampires but instead of normal gothic Vampires these would be Romanian nationalists around the 1870's.
Well, I had my eye on a unit of Night Goblins and the O&G army book on Ebay. Just won both, so nothing right now, just waiting for them to arrive so I can get to painting.
Ruberu wrote: Only two thing on my list, an Imperial Knight and a Warhound Titan. I need to finish painting my other armies before I buy anything else.
Small change
-Imperial Knight Crusader (happy I did not get the original kit yet, I really like that new sprue)
-Warhound Titan
-1250 points of Skitarii (I only play friendly games so I imagine I will have at least two Leman Russes painted red for Mars and covered in Admech decals)

That'll finish me off for a few months :s
So with just buying four of the new Knights and putting in my pre order for FW I've ended up with:
The Warlord (assuming its under £1k with all the weapons)
Roboute Guilliman
UM Command or Honor Guard depending what they are
Book V of HH Xiphon pattern Interceptor*
2 * Vindicator Laser Destroyer*
Deredo Dreadnaught with Plasma*
4 * Knight Warden*
* are brought and paid for. Debating on the Warlord, really has to be under £1k now otherwise I ain't bothering.
A 3rd Falcon. 2 isn't enough these days.
Now they're FotM, what with precise deep-strike, they've gone Direct Only.
So, its time to trawl all the FLGS in the county.
Robotech RPG Tactics boxed set (moved to first place as I am beginning to think it must be great)
Raven Guard v. Tau boxed set (if rumor is true)
Adepta Sororitas Codex (if rumor is true...and if hard copy)
A Space Marines Tactical squad box
A Dire Avengers squad box
Battle Sisters with Multi-meltas if some show up at my local gaming store, various others
One or more sets for an Eldar conversion idea (form 40k and Fantasy)
a few DV tactical squads from eBay, a command structure of the successor chapter I am planning.
2 Assault squads , 2 Heavy weapons and then start work on my DFA , dark angel furies , a female contingent of DA loyal sisters...who also happen to be from the wolves codex as allies.
I'm embarassed to say it, but probably a Taurox Prime. A friend picked me up a couple of sets of Victoria Miniature's wheeled conversion kits at Adepticon this year. Yeah, I spent $18 to make an atrocious looking $48 kit look presentable..
I plan to finish up my dark angels army with:
2-3 rhinos
1 droppod
Perhaps a few devastator boxes and another predator.
The new codex if/when it drops of course.
Imperial knights:
Either buy a crusader or the parts to magnetize and use on my current knight.
DKK-this is the big one I'm using the models for astra militarum codex:
3- more infantry squads
2 -more grenadiers
1- more leman russ + forgeworld plasma turrets for all 3
3- chimeras
2- hydra/wyverns
1- retinue to use as servitors for my enginseer
2- crew packs to use as crew on the hydras
3- sentinals
Hopefully I can snag this up before the year is out.
If i end up with too much money I'll grab a warhound and/or a zone mortalis board
