2020? Madness! I plan on owning the entire rogue trader catalogue plus every necromunda figure by 2015. But I won't have painted them all... actually I reckon 2020 is probably about right.
Love a little weird Al. I haven't listened to him since 2002 though I should go check out the newer tunes. Never heard "ebay".
No sign of orks or squigs yet - maybe tomorrow.
On a lighter note I just finished a steaming hot 7 hour shift in a sauna-like shop with no air-conditioning and I really hope the world ends in a fiery explosion tonight or I will have to go do it all over again tomorrow - till I'm seventy if the jobs market doesn't liven up. No, I'm only kidding really I do however pray to science above that our local arsonist will finally succeed in burning down our shop,
You know weety, if you threw up pics of some things you needed... some of us might be able to help you out with that. Not pages and pages of pics... but pick a race, or part of a race and post a pic of the page from the catalog with the things you need noted. Couldn't hurt.

Weety...I'm curious, what happened in 2002? Some seminal "day the music died" for you personally or something?

There are no official videos of the song, but this person did a decent job of making a Lego stop motion to the song.

So there is JB. I was thinking of the one on the far right but the othe one looks pretty cool. I Probably won't collect all the RT and necro minis - its a bit over ambitious.
i beg to differ... you can never be too overambitious... that way you are planning failure and such things ...you may actually fail to reach that etheral goal to "catch them all" but that is then due to coincidence and universal mischief...
Real life might get in the way. You never know what might happen. World war three might start - the UK might be consumed by revolution, a world shortage of lead might lead to people melting them down. But given perfect conditions I will eventually end up with the lot.
oh... imagine a scene like in the last patriot... where ?heath ledger? melted down his brothers lead soldiers for ammunition nneeds... the horror... but then my collection would be largly safe as i mostly own only plastics^^
and there is a global revolution bound to be happening... my kids will see to it^^

No she really did suggest I paint squigs and I'm not one to pass up on a cunning plan.
These little beauts are from 1992-93 according to the slotta tabs.
My ventolin pirate is going to be a tiny touch nurgly - he isn't a cultist or anything he's just a slob who hates cleaning his armour and hasn't changed his trousers since the 39th millenium.

That's a lot of Nurgle.

Squat tricycle and bike are in the bag! Ebay has got more interesting during the recession in some ways; 8 quid the pair and I've seen them sell for 15 pounds each before.

We sometimes call quids squids just to be different
Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh - yep quids are pounds. You knew that surely?
Its in all the best british cinema - they say stuff like "giz a quid" or "hundred nicker for the pair" maybe even "got any dosh". I'm watching a cockney british gangsta film tonight can you tell!
