Joking aside, I decided that it was time to focus my time and money on one gaming system I enjoy, and one I can teach my boys as they get a little older (currently 4 and 7).
However, I didn't realize the stock pile I had accumulated until today when I decided I wanted to sort them for easy finding...

Also keep in mind, a few things are still missing, like split box orders from Shae-Konnit.

Lucky you I'm still waiting on my first order of Nomads!

Isn't it great how much you can get if you don't spend it on that other game.

the starter set, sectorial set the remote with crazy koahlas a spectir and a zero. Unfortunately the place I ordered from them didnt get their order from corvus yet.

Excellent choices!

I saw the picture and shat myself.

Now get to work! Dance, monkey, dance!

I feel I need to a) wish you luck with completing all that and b) chastise you for having so many unpainted models.

I've got a few waiting for my Haqqislam force, but not nearly that many. It's the starter pack and... well, I'm down to 12 blisters now, after having finally cracked a couple open. But I've asked ShaeKonnit for another four from his split boxes. And there's one I plan on sculpting. (Some of the models are being appropriated from other factions though).

So you're why things I want are never in stock!

Working on it, I have most of my Caledonian Highlanders already assembled.
The wife is planning a week long trip later this summer with the boys to a relatives, that'll be the assembling overdrive time.

Thanks! I have no doubts that it will be a lot of work getting all of those finished and painted up but the trip will be fun!
Also I'm stuck to assembling for now as I've been told I cannot buy the paint and brushes that I want since Father's day is around the corner.

If you're ordering from thewarstore, then quite possibly yes!

Wow that IS crazy. I just can't believe you didn't get to them as soon as you got them! Every time I get one I have to get to it as soon as I can. At least to put together and drool over it a bit lol.

I open them up as soon as i can too, although so far it's just been to get all the bits out and figure out how i'm going to maim convert them.

I've accumulated a similar amount...

We just bought a house, and it has an excellent basement...

One last 'big' purchase of Sarissa Precision terrain, and then I'm in lockdown mode for a while...

You, sir, are insane! I admire you for it!

Looking forward to seeing that mate when you get it started!

Oh man, you sir, have a ton of pinning and assembly to do! That alone may be near 50 hrs for all those figures....and the painting makes me want to shudder! Haha sweet collection and you better put the kibosh on buying more before the addiction really becomes bad!

Your table is what I'm using for inspiration - I'll be hitting up the toy stores looking for appropriately sized/scaled vehicles to add in some 'civilian flavor'!

Does he even have anything else to buy?

Good point, I'm not sure he does.

Actually there is a fair bit that I do not have yet. I've tried to have some rhyme or reason to my madness and stuck with Sectorial Armies only as I like them from a fluff perspective.

I have a few non Sectorial units, mostly as they came with a starter box, but still. Also have a few non Sectorials as proxies for existing lines I do not like. IE using Spektors as replacements for Intruders.

So yes, still quite a bit left to pick up if I was going with the "everything" route.

Next items on the list are...
1. HMG Total Reaction remotes
2. Few more nomads, Morlock and Uberfallcommado
3. A bunch of MAS apartment complexes
4. One or two Sarissa Warehouses and Containers/Silos


I do plan to keep coming back here and updating my progress along the way if you guys are interested.
