Did anyone else have flashbacks to the old Warhammer kit and having to put together like 80-something Gobbos and constantly pricking themselves on their spears?!?! Arrgghhh... All in all, I'm kind of looking forward to painting up the Spider Riders... I'm thinking of gluing some static grass to their rear (is that thorax? Biology 101 escapes me) and having some black hairy spiders running around...

Spiders have two major body segments, the central "cephalothorax," and the rear "abdomen."

I remember that old box, with the Goblins and Elves. Once I accidentally put my hand down on a unit of the Goblin Spearmen, quite a few of which came up with my hand!

I had flashbacks to a Weapons and Warriors spring operated Rock Looba launching a Gobo right into someones eye, simultaneously while I said "stop that before you shoot him in the eye"

But yeah, I drew blood on a spear while assembling BFSP
