Nope, can't see myself selling any of my Eschers - I have at least one of each (that I know of).

Lord Commander in a Plush Chair

I've just finished painting a Marco Colombo, it's one of the limited edition figures that has taken a looong time to accrue any value above RRP. I never buy the figures that end up rare.
I want a lot more Dogs of Wars. When they dumped the range I picked some stuff up half price, but I didn't have a lot of money and had to choose between the Giants of Albion and Asarnil the Dragonlord. I took the giants but now I realise that the Dragonlord is almost impossible to find.
I think the kit was just an all plastic dragon and metal rider. Could anyone confirm what the metal bits in the kit were? Did the dragon have a metal or plastic head, or was the rider the only metal part? Anyway a few weeks back I saw Asarnil alone (no dragon) sell for £40 on eBay!
But I'm painting some Dogs of War and they will see the light soon. I've done marco Colombo and am finishing Long Drong's pirates. Next is either the giants or Pirazzo's legion, I also have Vespero's Vendetta and a pair of galloper guns. So I would like more infantry, another pike regiment (leopolds leopard co would be nice) or something else like the Marksmen of Miragliano.

*dusts off his Bauhaus Grizzly model*
It is a great model, but keep in mind that it is one of 2 or 3 decent sculpts from that entire game.
As for naming them Bauhuas, well, Target did some strange things with names in that game. They looked like the WW1 German soldiers, but were definitely supposed to be a conglomeration of corporations primarily from Germany, France , Russia and Italy. I may have missed a few countries in there, it has a while since I read the book and there were something like 2 dozen different corporations that bought into colonizing Venus which eventually led to the Venusian nation/mega-corporation of Bauhaus.
Blathering again......
This is going to sound strange, but I actually want a couple more of the old style chaos dreadnaughts and a couple of the epic banelord titan models. I kit bashed and greenstuffed those two together to make a great looking ummm... thing. I'm thinking obliterator. Though it does make for a tall model.
More Eschers woud also be great.

Fun Story: there are about 60 Diaz Demonettes and like 15 of the Seekers sitting in a box in my ex-fiancee's parent's house. We were building the army together, because she liked the slaanesh fluff, but when we broke up she took it out of spite. So she's sitting on the demonettes, a bunch of RT era berzerkers and 1k sons, 2nd ed Horrors, etc.

Spawn of Chaos

Not really any mini's I can think of off the top of my head... I'd love to get my mitts on the old Realms of Chaos books, and I am still a bit cheesed that I missed out on the 8th ed. collectors book. Just started a new job and my first check didn't arrive until the following week and by then it was to late... Brilliant looking book. Already going for more than twice as much it's original price on the Bay.

Theres a few, mainly limited edition models though, such as that space marine with a powerfist standing on top of an aquila statue, or the Ork Games Day model from a few years ago.
Theres also the space marine veteran sergeant with a maul and a chainmail banner... I can never find it on Ebay :(

Ooh, I forgot. I also want the Eldar Autarch that came with the boxed army but was never available on its own. Also known as the only Autarch GW ever released that didn't look terrible.

Androgynous Daemon Prince of Slaanesh
|
@ Meangreenstompa and anyone else who is looking for them: I have about 20 mounted Diaznettes that I'm looking to sell. I know this would probably belong in the "dakka swap shop" section, but since you were talking about wanting to get ahold of them, I thought I'd offer. And 20 pounds (or euros, not sure which you said) for the Slaanesh champion with a snake tail?! I got mine for 15 bucks on ebay 2 years ago-is he really that valuable now?

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.
