Mad Robot 20% off Nov 25 to Nov 30

A Black Friday sale actually occurring around Black Friday!

**Ancestral Hamster**

Black Friday sale at Only-Games. 30% off selected creators.

**BobtheInquisitor**

Wargames Atlantic has announced their first ever Black Friday sale, but details were not immediately forthcoming.

**Flinty**

HomeWorld 3 just went on sale on Steam. Not sure if it’s Black Friday related directly, but though it might be of interest.

**lord_blackfang**

I think Steam sales proper start on the 27th

Elegoo has serious discounts as well for all machines

Make sure to switch to your region

Very tempted by a Saturn 4. The Plus seems the perfect size, annoyingly it's 42% off on the EU site but only 23% off on the UK site. Wayland have discounts of around 40% on the Saturn 4, but they only seem to have the Pro and the Max, not the Plus, though the Max on Wayland is roughly the same price as the Plus on the Elegoo site, so a pretty good deal, just would have preferred to pay slightly less for the Plus as that should be enough for my needs (12" square scenic tiles) and would take up slightly less space.

**lord_blackfang**

Yea the Plus is absolutely perfect sized for wargamers. Mine is already here, but still boxed as I have to make room for it, which includes giving away my old 20x20 cm printer.

Regarding the resin machines, I took a look to advise my friends, and I think if I needed one I'd be going with the Saturn 3 Ultra. I don't think the 4 adds anything super meaningful (maybe slightly easier leveling, but I can level printers in my sleep) and actually loses the built in carbon air filter.

**Overread**

Saturn sized buildplates (9-10inches) are ideal for model printing. You can print lots of infantry or bases at once; and have room to put larger models like tanks/dragons/etc... into only one or a few plates.

Smaller 6inch buildplates are nice to start with, but for larger models can take a very long time.

The Saturn 4Ultra has the tiltbase design which basically changes how fep peeling happens. It basically has an exceptionally low lift height which helps with print speed and the tilt aspect helps reduce fep pull forces all at once. It's a feature I suspect we'll see steadily drift into more and more printers.

I have a 24.00 store credit there, so essentially I can pay them their overpriced shipping. It's like my own free shipping dale.

Anycubic have some pretty big offers- up to 69% off on some items. Very tempted...

Although if you're not ready to drop the cash for the Black Friday sale specifically, it's worth keeping in mind that Anycubic have sales running with mega discounts more often than not.

Bombshell Black Friday
20% off Nov 18th - Dec 3rd 2024

They have a Babes line which has a mix of sensibly dressed and pin-up types of women. I bought Officer Chase (who is a Yeoman Rand expy: Actress Grace Lee Whitney was born Mary Ann Chase). As well as a Arab belly dancer dual wielding swords. She'll be a Treasure Hunter in Frostgrave while Officer Chase is for Stargrave.

Their retro-raygun game Counterblast is mostly sold through MyMiniFactory now. Counterblast is both a minis game and RPG.

**Flinty**

MyMiniFactory just started their sale, including the Lazy Forger if people are needing some Epic scale action.

Apparently up to 50% off but it will depend on individual vendors on the site

**Overread**

Yeah if a Vendor has a TRIBE check it - several are offering more

Dragon Trappers Lodge is offering 60% off for members this month whilst AVG are offering 70% (I think that one is still running); One Page Rules are also doing 70% off for members

**Kid_Kyoto**

Perennially on the verge of bankruptcy

but still making awesome stuff...

Heresy is having a 30% off sale.

https://www.facebook.com/HeresyMiniatures

OK gang, really need some decent orders by Monday, got workshop rent (£900) AND a massive metal bill (£1066) due on the same day, which is a problem!
The Black Friday Sale offer is 30% with no minimum order, but if you need further coaxing, spend £100 on miniatures and you can get an extra £10 off any order of £100 or more by using the code EXTRABLACK ! Get together with friends for a joint order!
This code works on the main shop and also on Etsy for my Eu/Norway/Guest Checkout gang.
https://heresyminiatures.com/discounts for info
or
https://heresyminiatures.etsy.com
(Enter the code into the Shop Code box on checkout)
On the main shop, if you have an outstanding order, choose 'Add To Previous Order' as the checkout shipping to get free shipping and let me know the previous order number (preferably by separate email as well) and I'll add them together into one box.
*EU GSPR*
Speaking of the EU, you will have likely heard of the frantic screaming going on amongst the indie miniatures makers of the world right now, as the EU is bringing in General Product Safety Regulations so that anyone from any non-EU country sending any kind of product into the EU from any source, Ebay or otherwise, has to provide confirmations of safety etc and has to have an agent based in the EU to provide this information, which costs money, or risk a €20,000 euro fine (UK introducing something similar). This legislation has apparently been coming for ages but this week is the first time we've heard of it.
Whilst we all try to come up with a solution to this latest small business-killing hurdle (I'm waiting for a reply from some guys based in Estonia) the most likely short term result is that sales to the EU will have to be suspended in December (the new rules hit 13th December, right in time for Christmas, what were they thinking?!) because none of us can risk the whopping fine if we're caught out.
Therefore I suggest that any of you in the EU place your order as soon as possible so I can get them out by the start of December and avoid the deadline!
*SKELETON 01 back from the dead*
The very first Skeleton 3-Up, the prototype that has been off sale for years and which has evolved into the latest versions following years of practice etc, is once more getting a production run as the moulds have some casting life left in them. If you've been collecting the series and missed out, you can now pick one up, I've set a limit at 2 but I'd be surprised if it's that many to be honest, the moulds could go at any point. I've also made it so that you can get the skeleton bits without the base if you like, or with my more modern skulls as opposed to the original versions in the picture!
you can find the skeleton on Etsy here:
https://heresyminiatures.etsy.com/.../collectors-edition...
Or on the main shop here:
https://heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.php...
*Buy Me A Coffee*
If you want to help me out without buying miniatures, as always you can either buy yourself some gift vouchers (virtual credit which you can send to friends via email) or you can donate via ko-fi.com/heresyandy

Confession time, I ordered the Gorkanaut from Kromlech on last year's BF and never even opened the parcel.

**vadersson**

FYI there are some pretty good prices on Amazon as part of their Black Friday sales. Well, at least for Bolt Action. Not sure about other minis games.
