Not a bad year.

Oo update to my Xmas. So other than 500 in models my wife got me surround sound. My mother in law bought me a scenery pack and a realm of battle board.

I never really get any model stuff for xmas, no one knows what to get me, but if I get Amazon cards I'll usually get a kit or 2 with them. This year I scored $225 in amazon cards I'm going to put that toward an entry level HD camcorder do make some how to play videos or hobby tutorials for my game.

And I got a brand new Magic Mouse for my new Mac

Good. Enough to start an army, but not enough to finish it.

I'm on my fourth straight day of 40k binge painting/assembling. I got early presents of 10 stormboyz and a squad of kommandos. On Christmas day I got 30 boyz, a battlewagon (and enough bitz to make a scratch-built warbuggy), and permission to ransack my brother's old space marine tanks.

I might have to borrow your family next christmas

Seems everyone's been getting nice presents for christmas, congratulations!

As for me, I'm still waiting for my present(s)
I've been away on holiday with the missus since the 21st day.
We didn't want to carry extra stuff around Finland, and so decided to leave our presents at home and open them when we get back.

We'll return home on friday, really looking forward to it!
I've no idea what she got me, I did try to point her toward some army carriers though, I've just about had enough of cardboard boxes...

Brother got me a box of Winter Guard and a Assualt komando flamethrower WA!

I got Dreadfleet and more unexpectly the D&D Rules Cyclopedia. Great gifts from the family.

If anyone knows where to find a D20 gear shifter knob that would be cool.

I got a kiss from my sweety. Best Xmas gift I have had in a long time.

My hobby presents, aside from the table and terrain the missus got me, consisted of a miscast Vargulf (replacement on the way) and a miscast Malifaux model. Kind of funny getting a miscast metal as well as a miscast finecast model on the same day.
