I will gladly paint a nob for you. I just won Best Painter at the BAO out of 170+ so I can throw ya something good. Can I convert the nob at all? I have plenty of figures at my house so no need to send me one.

Works for me Mike - you can convert it and do whatever you like to it.

Thanks BC, you're a star. Anything above 20mm thick here gets considered "package", which has a minimum starting price of $20 or so to ship internationally.

The guy at the post office said I could just give them to him if I didn't want them.

Sounds like fun. id love to paint some orks.

Desu, PM me your address and I will get some shipped to you

I wouldn't mind getting in on this if you still need some painters.
Maybe a couple of boys?

Sure man, PM me your details

I am all over this but you know, every warband needs a Big Ol' Mek. I will do a kitbash Big Mek from a spare nob. A gift from me to you!

Aye, just a thought, plus they can also go back and forth inside the UK for 74p in those little boxes or a jiffy.

How are these going to be based? Is that going to be the one constant, unifying thing throughout the horde?

Don't base them - I will base them myself so they are all the same. Given that some people will glue them into the bases, and some won't, I will work out how best to base them when they show up. Might even put it to a poll

Ah that was going to be a question of mine

Sweet, makes sense!

I would be keen to take part in this if there are any boyz left.

Was just lurking on the forums and stumbled across this thread and thought that it's a pretty cool idea.

If it helps kb_lock I'm happy to use 2 of my own black reach boyz and send it to Buttery for onwards posting that way you only have to worry about postage 1 way (I have loads they always turn up in bits boxes I buy from Ebay)

Let me know either way

I'm easy dude, I'm going to be shipping a box of stuff to bc anyway.

Need an American bro with free time to help me over there with on shipping too

Hi kb,

I would love the honor of painting a ork nob. love the idea and it will be awesome since I have never painted a ork before.

let me know if one is still available and what I gotta do. if you like I can take 1 nob and a boy. thanks.

Is this still a thing? Would you be able to send to Sweden? I'd love to paint some!

Yes still a thing, pm me your details.

I'll ship uk stuff out early next week via buttery commissar, American/Canadian stuff out when i find someone to help reship,everywhere else early next week too

KB, I can do Europe posting probably cheaper than you from here as well, if you wish. £2.40 roughly.

I'd advise Europeans just send straight back to you as it wouldn't be much different.

Can I wait for a week? Don't have a computer right now...

Edit: nvm I can't read

Will ship next week to aus bros and euros

Noticed the title change? Everything ok?

This is such a great idea, started work on my contribution.

The title change was a while ago. The plan proceeds.

Yeah, it got shunted by a week - I have them all with me now at work, and will ship them out by Wednesday.

Buttery Commissar has been good enough to offer to redistribute to you eurobros, so I will send it all there.

Jaunine and the aus/nz folks I will ship direct.

I still haven't got a solution for Canadians/Americans as yet - if anyone wants to redistribute for me, I'll give you a virtual high five (pimp slap my monitor).

Hey there.... this is really cool...., I actually have 1 ork I am in the middle of converting / painting just now..... can I still be a part? Whats the time scale? Sorry ... I am sure this has all been asked like a million times already! Would like to contribute!

How many North Americans are on the list, kb? Don't want to get your hopes up too high, but I may be able to help with US distribution. Scheduling is a bit wonky and the post office is less than close (my town has 5 zip codes), so I couldn't guarantee super-rapid deployment, but this project is too cool to allow a whole continent to be left out due to lack of initiative.

PM me details and I'll let you know what I can do. If small (and safe) enough packaging can be sourced to fit through a mail slot, I could ship them from a local drop box instead of driving out to the PO, which would save time. I have my own stash of AoBR boys, so you might even get back more than you send.

I would like to jump on this as well! I will paint a Boy or nob!

oadie,

I'm not embedding it because the forum embeds like a piece of rubbish.

OK, I now have distribution sorted, a collection of grey plastic in my hot little hands, and a song in my heart.

I will PM everyone involved so far and let them know what's up - the people doing local distribution are oadie and Buttery Commissar, both of whom I would consider members in very good standing here in P&M - if you trust some random Aussie with your address, you should trust these good folk as well.

If you aren't in Europe or North America, I will be shipping to you personally - you lucky devils. I think that is like 4 people.

~PACKAGES ARE GOING TO TAKE TIME~ BC and oadie are busy, Australia Post is utterly horrible at everything, this is being organised by me - all are amazingly good reasons why it will probably take a month or more for you to get a tiny piece of plastic.

If you're donating your plastic orks, there is no hurry for you to finish - I will send you the addresses to send them to, but they will not be coming back to the land down under until at least 2 or 3 months from now.


Automatically Appended Next Post:

Dakkalance, PM me your details.

There are still about 8 or so ork boys - if you want to get involved, pm me asap so I can send your details to the relevant distribution partner - you can post here, but if you aren't giving me your details, that isn't really going to help.

Good to see this getting going! I know it'll be a wait, but I'm already looking forward to seeing the finished results come together!
