RTB001 box set.
From a model store in the city - because GW didn't have stores outside of the UK at that point - and we ONLY had these "other" independent stores.
No longer have the contents of that set - but I have a number left from my second (also RTB001) box. They were painted differently from box to box, and the painting got less crap as I practised.  Never got completely not-crap though - I never cared enough about it to bother learning the master level stuff.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

My first W40K models were an army I brought at a wargame convention. I have since added units and models. All old school where possible. Check out the full metal land-speeder.

First models I owned were painted second hand Chaos Marines given by an older friend who wasn't into wargames anymore. First models I "bought" (thanks, mum) was a SM tactical squad and a 40k paint starter set (you get five marines). Back in 3rd.
