Hi,

I was just wondering if any of you is attending Forgeworld's Open Day on April 3rd. I planned to, but unfortunately due to an unforeseeable events I will not be able to go. So, I was hoping that someone would be kind enough to buy for me the exclusive miniatures released on that day. I will pay in advance the cost of the miniatures and the shipping costs.

Is anyone who could help? I would be extremely grateful.

I am based in Oxford, UK.

Is the Open Day model the same one from last year, the Runt Bot?

No, unfortunately it is not. The one was previewed to be a Space Marine. I have no idea about the other, since no info has been disclosed so far. Probably something related to Warhammer Forge line.

Are there any chances you attend the event?

Quite possibly, message me closer to the event.

That's music to my ears . Thanks a lot for contacting me mate.

The 2011 event only model is a grey knight term with sword and storm sheild looks like a variant to the new draigo model

however unlike gamesday when you can buy as many as you like at the 3 arpil open day each person is limited to just 1 as it is the frist show of the year hope that helps

they've only released on preview pic that i know of and his armor/markings/colors look much more like an astral claw to tie in with the badab war books than a grey knight. not every metallic marine is the inquisition's lapdog!

Are you 100% sure about that? Is it limited to one per person?

It wasn't limited last year - I hope its not!

Thanks a lot for the info mate. Any chance you might go this year and want to help a fellow gamer

If anyone is going, and there is no limit of the Mini's, I too would be interested if some one could possibly snag me a set. Payment will be made via Paypal once it's know if there is no limit and the costs is posted.

Thanks.

Add me to the request list. I am definately interested in getting both figures (even though the second hasn't been revealed yet.

@Breotan and @CinderBlack Guys I appreciate your interest, but please (no offence) do not highjack my thread.

just what i heard from my source at FW (brother works in head office) as for them being limited at the open day last year i was only allowd to by 2 and that was at a push at games day you can buy as many as you like but from past experience at the open day they do limmit the amount bought

also i have been told its a grey knight but my sourse has been wrong in the past (BUT NOT THAT OFTERN) cheers sbu

p.s i will be buying as many as i am aloud if they are grey knights to use as my ghost warriors and pos paladin variants

Sounds interesting I will look into it.

Last year you could definately buy as many as you want as I bought about 15 (some for Dakka ites who asked me to get em and send them to them).

Hoping to do the same this year if they let me. Otherwise will have to round up a load of kids in store and give them all £20 to buy me one each. I'll buy em a lollypop each or something

Sorry to thread-jack, but since it had become a discussion, I would also be interested in purchasing these, since I am in AUD and will not be able to attend

I'm going to make a new thread on the buy/sell forum now - for anyone interested in getting the Forgeworld show models
